Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Saul Pousa (ranked 3724 p4p, 2347 weight class) and Hoosein Abdul (ranked 360 p4p, 253 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Saul Pousa has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Saul Pousa seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
