Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Josh Rover (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Daunte Jordan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rover comes to the cage accompanied by Oh.. Canada- Classified. Jordan has chosen Underdog as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
