Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Gage R (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kurt Kendall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Kendall's choice of entrance music: Kool Moe Dee - I Go To Work. On his way into the cage it seems that Gage R has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Gage R seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
