Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Anzor Greene (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sven OlyLarsen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Greene comes to the cage accompanied by Skindred - Nobody. On his way into the cage it seems that Anzor Greene has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Anzor Greene seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
