Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gniewomir Lach (ranked 104 p4p, 80 weight class) and Oulu Laine (ranked 18 p4p, 14 weight class). Lach's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Soel. Laine has chosen Peti - Oulu Shangri-la as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
