Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mathew Simms (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Claus Von Stauffenberg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mathew Simms had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.5lbs, 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. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.

Christoski with some aggressive grappling here. He's looking for submissions here, rather than waiting for the opportunity to counter.
And that's the end of the fight!
Jesus Christoski comfortably won the final round on my scorecard.
I think Odinson has won this one but let's see what the judges have to say. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Thor Odinson!
