Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Voitto Putkimies (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and The Shadow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Putkimies's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Tik Tak - Heilutaan. Shadow has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Voitto Putkimies has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
