Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jay Danville (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rosco Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Danville kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is East Clubbers - I Walk Alone. 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.
