Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Nikolai Yasnov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and George Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yasnov comes to the cage accompanied by Hell Yeah - Dead Prez Ft Jay-Z . Davis is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Marine Corps Hymn. On his way into the cage it seems that Nikolai Yasnov has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Nikolai Yasnov seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
