Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Al Bbq (ranked 6142 p4p, 607 weight class) and TJ Goodard (ranked 3356 p4p, 408 weight class).

He only made it down to 172.5lbs 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. Al Bbq has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
