Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kirk Jamal (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jarick Kanstra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kirk Jamal had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 137.1lbs, 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. This should be fireworks!
