Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dog Hercules (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Olbrzymi Vlad (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hercules comes to the cage accompanied by Hollywood Undead - Undead. On his way into the cage it seems that Dog Hercules has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Dog Hercules seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
