Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lasi Leuka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Twborg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Twborg has chosen Heavy Hitter as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Lasi Leuka looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
