The wait is over. After two months' delay, Craig Jones and Tye Ruotolo are ready to square off in another installment of the storied rivalry between Atos and the Danaher Death Squad.

Jones has been unstoppable on the WNO mats. He’s 3-0 with three submission victories and less than eight minutes of total mat time. But Tye Ruotolo may be his toughest challenge on the WNO mats to-date. Ruotolo is also 3-0 on Who’s Number One, and has taken down some of the most highly-touted grapplers around. But his most recent match against William Tackett made a statement, and gave him even further claim to his match with the heavier, no.2-ranked light heavyweight, Craig Jones.
