Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tyrone Tornado CPW (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hong Kong Phooey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tornado CPW comes to the cage accompanied by Warning!. Phooey comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Hong Kong Phooey kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Hong Kong Phooey struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 146.0lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. On his way into the cage it seems that Tyrone Tornado CPW has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Tyrone Tornado CPW seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
