Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sune Mangs (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gunnar Sigbjornsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mangs kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Orvars sång. Sigbjornsson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Greta Salóme & Jónsi....Never Forget. Gunnar Sigbjornsson has the eye of the tiger tonight.
