Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Shoma Tanaka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yavor Stanchev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stanchev is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: BT feat The Roots - Tao Of The Machine. On his way into the cage it seems that Shoma Tanaka has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shoma Tanaka seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
