Coming up we have a bantamweight kickboxing rules bout between Rane Kingi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Artie Quitter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the ring it seems that Rane Kingi has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Rane Kingi seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
