Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ted Coke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nisse Metaxa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Coke kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cocaine. Metaxa comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Skillet-Hero kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ingemar Anders (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mordred Deschain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Anders might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Gods Son. On his way into the cage it seems that Ingemar Anders has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ingemar Anders seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
