Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Nick Laan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vlad Sten (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Laan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Holiday. Nick Laan had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.5lbs, 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. Nick Laan could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Vlad Sten's chin.
