Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Bronco (ranked 1223 p4p, 551 weight class) and Louis Princip (ranked 175 p4p, 84 weight class). Bronco comes to the cage accompanied by The Horses - Daryl Braithwaite . The crowd seem to be enjoying Princip's choice of entrance music: Lord of This World by Black Sabbath. On his way into the cage it seems that Johnny Bronco has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Johnny Bronco seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
