Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sergei Baduk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brutal Rapist (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Baduk's entrance music is Leontiev Valera - Sokrovische Chernogo Morya. A fine choice. Rapist is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Requiem for a dream. On his way into the cage it seems that Sergei Baduk has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Sergei Baduk seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
