Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Rodrigo Diaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Clark Gerra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Diaz comes into the arena with Sepultura - Refuse/Resist blaring out of the sound system. On his way into the cage it seems that Rodrigo Diaz has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Rodrigo Diaz seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
