Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Diogo Souza (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mister Vengeance (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vengeance has chosen Melt-Banana - Shield For Your Eyes, A Beast in the Well on Your Hand as his entrance music. On his way into the ring it seems that Diogo Souza has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Diogo Souza seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
