Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Cung Le (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kickboxing Jobber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Le's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Untouchable . On his way into the ring it seems that Cung Le has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Cung Le seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
