Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Oscar Bukele (ranked 2102 p4p, 2397 weight class) and Seth Christian (ranked 274 p4p, 299 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Oscar Bukele has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Oscar Bukele seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
