Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between William Bonin (ranked 3357 p4p, 2395 weight class) and Jay Porter (ranked 448 p4p, 324 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that William Bonin has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily William Bonin seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
