Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tom Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eskil Eliasson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, It's not unusual. Eliasson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: TV On The Radio - Wolf Like Me. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
