Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mike Ikerson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kimbo Slime (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ikerson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hopesfall - Andromeda. Slime has chosen Captain Sensible - Happy Talk as his entrance music. Mike Ikerson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.3lbs, 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. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
