Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Spencer Fisher JR (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Danny Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Green comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Men at Work- Down Under kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Danny Green struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.2lbs 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. Danny Green will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
