Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Shinichi Onizuka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gary Player (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Onizuka comes to the cage accompanied by Nate Dogg - First We Pray. Player has chosen Kevin Gates feat. August Alsina - I Don't Get Tired as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Shinichi Onizuka has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shinichi Onizuka seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
