Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between John Mott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryoga Hibiki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hibiki is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Blue Orchid. John Mott had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.0lbs, 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. Ryoga Hibiki will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
