Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Baki Hanma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Taiki Aoki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hanma comes into the arena with Disl Automatic ft K-rino - Battle Cry blaring out of the sound system. On his way into the cage it seems that Baki Hanma has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Baki Hanma seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Igydo Dall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergio Bujol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dall comes into the arena with Blue Ice blaring out of the sound system. On his way into the cage it seems that Igydo Dall has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Igydo Dall seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
