Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jesus White (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Trey Pickett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jesus White had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.4lbs, 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. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between James Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ted DiBiase (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ted DiBiase struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.4lbs 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. James Jones has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
