Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Harry Haffa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kalle Kolmiokuristus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Haffa might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Black Stone Cherry - White Trash Millionaire. Kolmiokuristus has chosen bad boy - cascada as his entrance music. Kalle Kolmiokuristus has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
