Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Vevrin Betlach (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cristi Radu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Vevrin Betlach has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Vevrin Betlach seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
