Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Brute Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Liam Lam (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Liam Lam struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 147.0lbs 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. Brute Lee has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
