Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mickey Finn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Walker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Finn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Von Bondies - C'mon c'mon. Walker has chosen The Doors - Peace Frog as his entrance music. 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.
