Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between T-R-T Vitor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Buck Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Brown comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Cannibal Corpes - Hammer smashed face kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that T-R-T Vitor has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily T-R-T Vitor seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
