Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Maki Damchaigym (ranked 24772 p4p, 2632 weight class) and Dado Mata (ranked 490 p4p, 283 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Mata's choice of entrance music: 和楽器バンド / 千本桜. On his way into the ring it seems that Maki Damchaigym has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Maki Damchaigym seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
