Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Van Dinh Nguyen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Riku Reipas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nguyen kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Rolling Stones - Paint it Black . Van Dinh Nguyen is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
