Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Kevin Walker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jacob Cullen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cullen has chosen Breaking Fangs as his entrance music. On his way into the ring it seems that Kevin Walker has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Kevin Walker seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
