Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Carl Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Amir Sadona (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jones might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dillinger Escape Plan - 43% Burnt. Amir Sadona has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
