Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mikio Okita (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Caeser Augustus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Caeser Augustus struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.6lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Mikio Okita has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
