Main event

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Via Dios (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stafford Shire (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dios's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Sandstorm. Stafford Shire struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 136.9lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. On his way into the cage it seems that Via Dios has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Via Dios seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
