Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Adam Hanga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leonardo Figueiredo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Adam Hanga had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.9lbs, 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. Leonardo Figueiredo will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
