Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Billy Flash (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andres Garcia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Billy Flash had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.2lbs, 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. Billy Flash has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
