Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sara McSlamm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Franklin Munchack (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sara McSlamm had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.0lbs, 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. Franklin Munchack has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Sara McSlamm's chin.
