Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ryan Chiappe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Saiyok Pumpanmuang (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ryan Chiappe had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.0lbs, 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. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
