Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Hannibal Lecter VIII (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joseph Stevenson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lecter VIII kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Getting Away With Murder. The crowd seem to be enjoying Stevenson's choice of entrance music: Higher Ground - Red Hot Chili Peppers. On his way into the cage it seems that Hannibal Lecter VIII has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Hannibal Lecter VIII seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
