Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Matt Bera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Akseli Suokuokka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bera's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Parasite :D . Suokuokka comes into a darkened arena with his song building. The Bags - Cavemen Rejoice kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
