Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Matt Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cray Willams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Matt Smith had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.3lbs, 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. The key to victory for Matt Smith has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
