Mixed-martial arts champion Urijah Faber will have a guest spot on Sunday’s episode of the caper series “Leverage,” airing at 8 p.m. on TNT. Fists will be flying as his character faces off against the Leverage team’s hitter Eliot Spencer, who is played by Norman-bred actor Christian Kane.

In a recent phone interview, Kane promised me there will be blood Faber makes his appearance in the episode, which was directed by legendary actor/filmmaker Frank Oz.

“There was a fight scene where Eliot needed someone that could kick his a — , and I said, ‘I got the guy,’” Kane told me, explaining how he recruited his friend Faber. “He did us a really big favor. … To have someone who’s actually that great at the fight game, you don’t know what you’re in for.”
