Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Segey Taranin (ranked 1748 p4p, 194 weight class) and Watsz Mawe (ranked 1052 p4p, 115 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Segey Taranin has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Segey Taranin seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
