Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bald Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Domenic Amato (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Amato is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Gonna Fly Now. On his way into the cage it seems that Bald Bull has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Bald Bull seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
