Apparently they didn’t take kindly to this gesture, and the drama spilled over in to the arena on fight night.

During his UFC 198 walkout, Matt Brown was swiped at, grabbed, and even struck by one angry fan, forcing ‘The Immortal’ to throw a punch before he’d even made it to the octagon. Check out the video of that crazy moment:

Well it wasn’t the end of the world for Brown, perhaps a slightly poor timed annoyance on a night already filled with pressure, but he remained relatively unscathed.
