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