Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Marcus Clarke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Ingram (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Clarke's entrance music is Van Canto - Wishmaster. A fine choice. On his way into the cage it seems that Marcus Clarke has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Marcus Clarke seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
