Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Coffey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tukuru Lemu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Coffey comes to the cage accompanied by Only Time by Enya. On his way into the cage it seems that John Coffey has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily John Coffey seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
