Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Let Ji (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gay Lussac (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ji comes to the cage accompanied by Anathema - Judgement. Lussac comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Sadly Ever After by Innerphoria kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Let Ji has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Let Ji seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
