Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Teppo Turma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Albert Einstein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Turma might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Slipknot - Psychosocial. Einstein has chosen Gold Soundz as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Teppo Turma has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Teppo Turma seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
