Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Matt Porcelain Punisher (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maki Pulu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pulu has chosen Alive as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Matt Porcelain Punisher has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Matt Porcelain Punisher seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
