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