Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tony Jaa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jebidiah Knepp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jaa kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Anna Molly by Incubus. Knepp has chosen Amish Paradise as his entrance music. 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?
