Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Frank Martin (ranked 1061 p4p, 45 weight class) and Edward Beerhands (ranked 1805 p4p, 72 weight class). Beerhands has chosen Drinkin' as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Frank Martin has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Frank Martin seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
