Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Anton Chekhov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Puntti Manne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chekhov's entrance music is КАТЮШA. A fine choice. Manne comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Edguy - Two Out of Seven kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
