Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tallak Hrolf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergei Bautin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bautin comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Lobotomy by The Ramones kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Tallak Hrolf has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Tallak Hrolf seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
