Drysdale kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Soulfly-"Prophecy". Vantinnen comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Pantera-"Walk" kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both fighters really staring eachother down here, as Mikko Vantinnen enters the cage!
