Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Geronimo Malkind (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charles Manson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Malkind might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Extreme Ways. Manson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Indian War Song. On his way into the cage it seems that Geronimo Malkind has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Geronimo Malkind seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
