Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dresden Carmichael (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ogg Nogg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nogg has chosen Pantera : 5 Minutes Alone as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Dresden Carmichael has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Dresden Carmichael seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
