Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Pastor Dave (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cole Trickle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Trickle is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Personal Jesus. On his way into the cage it seems that Pastor Dave has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Pastor Dave seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Oranjinho Pires (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eddie Guavo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pires kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Runes to My Memory - Amon Amarth. Guavo has chosen Super Star as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Oranjinho Pires has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
