Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Phoenix Lagic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gabriel Archaniol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lagic's entrance music is B.o.B Magic FT. Rivers Cumo. A fine choice. Phoenix Lagic had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.7lbs, 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. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
