Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mikey Barr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Iiro Seppanen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mikey Barr had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.8lbs, 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. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Drogan has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Tsemppu should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Drogan has tightened it up now! Tsemppu should have reacted faster there - he's in big trouble and yes, he's tapped out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:04 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Cleve Drogan!
