Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Miles Sera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Eater (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Miles Sera had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.1lbs, 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. Jimmy Eater has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
