Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Arturo Ward (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eric Zimmerman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zimmerman comes into a darkened arena with his song building. The theme from Close encounters of the 3ed kind kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the ring it seems that Arturo Ward has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Arturo Ward seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
