Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jack Mehoff (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adrian Bale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mehoff's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Choke Sermon by Lamb of God. On his way into the cage it seems that Jack Mehoff has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jack Mehoff seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
