Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Patrick Tiernan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Carl Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tiernan kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is DESERT STORM by Tartanic. Jones has chosen Dillinger Escape Plan - 43% Burnt 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.
