Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Frank Whitaker (ranked 2321 p4p, 3399 weight class) and James Aregood (ranked 244 p4p, 347 weight class). Frank Whitaker had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.2lbs, 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. Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!
