Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Bruce Buckern (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyson Tridant (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bruce Buckern had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.7lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Tyson Tridant is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Norman Foster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jay The Killer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Norman Foster is staring across the ring at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
