Karjalainen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Poisonblack - Sun Shines Black. Watt has chosen Edmund Fitzgerald as his entrance music. 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.
