Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hijab Pummel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kurt Wood (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hijab Pummel had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.9lbs, 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, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
