Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Anton Chigurh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mitchell Stehling (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chigurh comes to the cage accompanied by Kvelertak-Mjod. Stehling has chosen Turmion Kätilöt - Minä MÄÄRÄÄN! as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd.
