Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Maximo Meridio (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eino Juutilainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maximo Meridio had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.1lbs, 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. This should be a great matchup!

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Viktor Aalto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Blaze Seagrave (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Seagrave is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Waitin on Hank - Dry County. On his way into the cage it seems that Viktor Aalto has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Viktor Aalto seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
