Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Chico Greyjoy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roy Kannemeyer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chico Greyjoy had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.1lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. On his way into the cage it seems that Chico Greyjoy has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Chico Greyjoy seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
