Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Angus McZongo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimbo Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McZongo kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Skiltron- Sword and Shield. Jimbo Jones has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
