Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Brandon Carwin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Douglas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Douglas has chosen Rubber Chicken by Caspa as his entrance music. Brandon Carwin had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.7lbs, 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. 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.
