Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Juan Carlos (ranked 2122 p4p, 2197 weight class) and Jacob White (ranked 259 p4p, 267 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Juan Carlos has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Juan Carlos seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
