Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bruce Wayne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Smith has chosen Big John as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Bruce Wayne has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Bruce Wayne seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
