Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mickey Finn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Milton Myers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Finn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Von Bondies - C'mon c'mon. On his way into the cage it seems that Mickey Finn has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mickey Finn seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
