Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jyn Karinzo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josie Jo Ford (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Karinzo comes to the cage accompanied by BLUNT - Self Medicated. Ford has chosen Mötley Crüe - Wild Side as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Jyn Karinzo has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jyn Karinzo seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
