Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ruslan Matviyenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Orkan Dogu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

On his way into the cage it seems that James Frac has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily James Frac seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
