Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Judo Dan (ranked 2545 p4p, 2246 weight class) and Janne Virtanen (ranked 251 p4p, 224 weight class). Virtanen has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Janne Virtanen has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
