Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Hong Kong Phooey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Oliver Kahn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Kahn has chosen Boris Brejcha - Flockentanz as his entrance music. On his way into the ring it seems that Hong Kong Phooey has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Hong Kong Phooey seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
