Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jaakko Parantainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Teijo Tarzan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Parantainen kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Eminem - White America . These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
