Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jacques St Croix (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kim Eel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kim Eel struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 146.5lbs 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. Jacques St Croix has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
