Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Erik Larson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gurrr Yahh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gurrr Yahh struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.2lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
