Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jordan Graham (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Micky Ward (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Graham's entrance music is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC_Z-EPSVaI&playnext=1&videos=gXE_R26bAm8. A fine choice. Ward has chosen Dropkick Murphys- The Warrior's Code as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Jordan Graham could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Micky Ward's chin.
