Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Drake Vonstein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Virgil Beck (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vonstein's entrance music is Seether - Remedy. A fine choice. Beck has chosen Cell Therapy by Goodie Mob as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Drake Vonstein has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Drake Vonstein seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
