MMAViking.com talks with veteran Saku Heikkola (4-5-1) about the span of his 8 year fighting career, shortly after his impressive first round stoppage at Cage 29 Saturday night.

The 33 year old recently regained a lot of attention, when Alexander Gustafsson’s first fight video surfaced against the Finn. “Oh the glory days” jokes Heikkola. “It was a hell of a beatdown, I just can’t forget it.” says the easy going Finn of the 2007 battle.
