Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mac Anudo (ranked 3944 p4p, 4087 weight class) and Eli Vieira (ranked 502 p4p, 515 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Mac Anudo has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mac Anudo seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
