Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ruffus Switch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Robin Carlgren (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Switch kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Jungle Boogie. Ruffus Switch had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.1lbs, 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 these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
