Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Andrey Nazarov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Quentin Cane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cane has chosen Rob Zombie - What as his entrance music. Andrey Nazarov had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.0lbs, 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. Quentin Cane is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
