Main event

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jordan Parise (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kaiser Soze (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 155lb limit. Jordan Parise came in at 156.4 and Kaiser Soze came in at 156.1 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. Jordan Parise could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Kaiser Soze's chin.
