Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Lutz Knitter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arthur Pirozhkov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Lutz Knitter has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Lutz Knitter seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
