Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Han Do Jin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and All Out (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Depth Charge - Depth Charge (Han Do Jin). On his way into the ring it seems that Han Do Jin has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Han Do Jin seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
