Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Felix Feira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arthur Eld (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Feira's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Go Into The Water. On his way into the cage it seems that Felix Feira has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Felix Feira seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
