A russian spy swapped out Fluffy's walkout music to put him off his game. Sanctioned directly from Putin.

@Squeakypuff 
Remains to be seen. Hernandez is tough and has insane pressure and cardio, but he isn't great at closing the distance and is susceptable to body shots, which is exactly what Kopylov is great at. With that said, I can definitely see Hernandez winning if he can get Kopylov to the cage and/or to the ground.
