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