Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Im Fighter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eric Praline (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fighter might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brawler. Eric Praline struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 266.1lbs 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. Eric Praline has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Im Fighter's chin.
