Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Robin Convents (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Freddy Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Robin Convents had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 267.5lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
