Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Justus Sheehan Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Braden Turk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sheehan Jr comes to the cage accompanied by Neon Skies. Turk is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Status Quo- Deeper and Down. On his way into the cage it seems that Justus Sheehan Jr has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Justus Sheehan Jr seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
