Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Charles Luciano (ranked 4852 p4p, 402 weight class) and Luke Skywalker (ranked 5880 p4p, 452 weight class). Luciano kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is One More Time. On his way into the cage it seems that Charles Luciano has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Charles Luciano seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
