Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Guido Cannetti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Derek Gaines (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Guido Cannetti has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Guido Cannetti seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
