Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roberto Hernando (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Careless Emotion (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hernando's entrance music is HaunTed . A fine choice. Emotion has chosen Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Roberto Hernando has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Roberto Hernando seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
