Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between John Wright (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dexter Dalit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wright kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Big Bad John. John Wright had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.3lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. On his way into the cage it seems that John Wright has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily John Wright seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
