Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Shawn Ritchie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aslak Lappalainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shawn Ritchie had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.9lbs, 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. Aslak Lappalainen has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
