Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Lilke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Richard Luimes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tommy Lilke had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.2lbs, 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. Richard Luimes is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
