Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Alexander Kuznetsov (ranked 931 p4p, 2518 weight class) and Cam Cartwright (ranked 145 p4p, 342 weight class). Cartwright has chosen Karma Chameleon as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Alexander Kuznetsov has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Alexander Kuznetsov seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
