Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Franklin Munchack (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julien Touret (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Munchack kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Tupac - Ambitionz Az A Ridah. Touret is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: La Valse d'Amelie. On his way into the cage it seems that Franklin Munchack has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Franklin Munchack seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
