Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Wanderlei Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sir Ringpull Beercan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Silva might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Sandstorm. On his way into the cage it seems that Wanderlei Silva has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Wanderlei Silva seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
