Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Max Lieber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alexander Gustaffson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lieber's entrance music is The Dust Brothers- What is Fight Club . A fine choice. On his way into the cage it seems that Max Lieber has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Max Lieber seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
