Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Gordon Tucker (ranked 4743 p4p, 6447 weight class) and Jenerick Montgomery (ranked 579 p4p, 711 weight class). Gordon Tucker had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.8lbs, 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. Gordon Tucker could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Jenerick Montgomery 's chin.
