Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jose Luis Cantero (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and George Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cantero comes into the arena with La mandanga blaring out of the sound system. Jones is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: You Dont Know - 50 Cent. 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.
