Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kenneth Vedhult (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stefan Borsch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vedhult comes to the cage accompanied by The skatt bros - Life at the outpost. Borsch has chosen Vikingarna - Leende Guldbruna Ögon as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Stefan Borsch will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
