Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Damien Stones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stones comes to the cage accompanied by T2 Theme by Austrian Death Machine. Brown has chosen Rammstein - Du Hast as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Damien Stones has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Damien Stones seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
