Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Minor Cuevas (ranked 2368 p4p, 2064 weight class) and Big Boss (ranked 295 p4p, 267 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Minor Cuevas has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Minor Cuevas seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
