Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Chris Cannon (ranked 5626 p4p, 222 weight class) and Diego Dean (ranked 5501 p4p, 219 weight class). Cannon comes to the cage accompanied by Mo Money Mo Problems Remix. On his way into the cage it seems that Chris Cannon has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Chris Cannon seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
