Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mutant Chernobli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arttu Mahtisaari (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chernobli kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Slipknot-Waynd and Bleed.
