He only made it down to 186.7lbs 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. Milo Winner looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Georges St Pierre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pierre St Georges (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). St Pierre kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Bouchées Doubles - En ton nom. St Georges has chosen I'm no superman (lazlo bane- scrubs theme) as his entrance music. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Snap Tastic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Al Pratt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Snap Tastic had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.4lbs, 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. Al Pratt has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
