Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Relva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Paulo Andre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Andre has chosen Fort Minor - Remember The Name as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Antonio Relva has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Antonio Relva seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
