Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jack Ripper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and KoKo Beware (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ripper comes to the cage accompanied by Diablo - Damien. Jack Ripper had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.1lbs, 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. The atmosphere really building for this one as we go over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
