Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Dong Hyun Kim (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Killa Vegeta (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dong Hyun Kim had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 147.6lbs, 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. Dong Hyun Kim has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
