Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jack LeBalls (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby Blake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blake is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Metallica - Dyer's Eve. On his way into the cage it seems that Jack LeBalls has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jack LeBalls seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
