Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Binky Barnes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Torrance (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Barnes kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Burn This City. Torrance has chosen Shadow on the Sun by Audioslave as his entrance music. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
