Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Taite Gordon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rickhard Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gordon's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Whistlin' Dixie. On his way into the cage it seems that Taite Gordon has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Taite Gordon seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
