Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rocky Marciano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pierre Saint Roc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Marciano comes to the cage accompanied by Kid Charlemagne. Saint Roc is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Rock superstar. On his way into the cage it seems that Rocky Marciano has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Rocky Marciano seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
