Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Shina Ikoa Nagura (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eliseo Seterra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Seterra comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Before I forget kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Shina Ikoa Nagura has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shina Ikoa Nagura seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
