Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sebastian Abigor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lawrence Soliman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Soliman has chosen detox as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Lawrence Soliman struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 206.6lbs 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. Sebastian Abigor has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
