Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Bob Cook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aldo Crespo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crespo has chosen Silent Lucidity as his entrance music. Bob Cook had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.4lbs, 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. Aldo Crespo is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
