Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Fancy Mcghee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hal Jordan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mcghee's entrance music is Wake Me Up. A fine choice. Jordan has chosen Dawn of the Dead by Does it Offend you, yeah? as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Fancy Mcghee has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Fancy Mcghee seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
