Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jungle George (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rian Madison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Madison has chosen Smut Peddlers - If You're Gonna Be Dumb as his entrance music. Jungle George had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.2lbs, 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.
