Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Danilo Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Miguel Cortez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Santos comes into the arena with CXA - Contos do Crime blaring out of the sound system. Danilo Santos had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.5lbs, 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!
