Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Anton Kruglov (ranked 1279 p4p, 160 weight class) and Daniel Mosby (ranked 682 p4p, 94 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Anton Kruglov has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Anton Kruglov seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
