Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Andrei James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ted Kane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ted Kane struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.1lbs 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. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
