Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Ringo (ranked 2784 p4p, 2285 weight class) and Danny Sitsongrit (ranked 344 p4p, 292 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Johnny Ringo has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Johnny Ringo seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Master Leader (ranked 1368 p4p, 1168 weight class) and David Khinchegashvili (ranked 201 p4p, 179 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Leader might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Champions - Kanye West (ft Travis Scott, Quavo, etc…). David Khinchegashvili will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
