Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ajamu Mokoena (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Praveen Gladston (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gladston has chosen Dizzee Rascal - Holiday as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Ajamu Mokoena has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ajamu Mokoena seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
