Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Remington Hallow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Helmut Doerner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Doerner's choice of entrance music: Balls to the Wall by Accept. Remington Hallow had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.1lbs, 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. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
