Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mihail Fedorov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Artem Zarencev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Mihail Fedorov has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mihail Fedorov seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
