Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sub Norris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Patrick Tracy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Norris's entrance music is Norris Man - When Your Time Is Up. A fine choice. Tracy has chosen You Can Kiss My Irish Arse 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.
