Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Heel Jando (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Clark (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jando's entrance music is The Strokes - Someday. A fine choice. Clark has chosen Silversun Pickups - Comeback Kid 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.
