Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Felix Fishpockets (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roy Hook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fishpockets kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is I don't know how to love him. On his way into the cage it seems that Felix Fishpockets has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Felix Fishpockets seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
