Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Damingo Santino (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Zullo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zullo has chosen Assistant To The Regional Manager - The Devil Wears Prada as his entrance music. Damingo Santino had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.9lbs, 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. Damingo Santino had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
