Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kuro Endo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and William Fredin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Endo comes to the ring accompanied by Name of the Game by The Crystal Method. Kuro Endo had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.6lbs, 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 key to victory for Kuro Endo has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
