Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Diego Dos Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tiago Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Gracie's choice of entrance music: THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS. Tiago Gracie struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.3lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Diego Dos Santos looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
