Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jason Crayzle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ukko Petkele (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crayzle 's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dropkick Murphys - Johnny I hardly knew ya. Petkele has chosen M.A. Numminen - Perkele as his entrance music. This should be a great matchup!
