Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Don Puncharello (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bo Snowflake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bo Snowflake struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 146.7lbs 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. Bo Snowflake is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
