Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Austin Campbell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Pritchett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Campbell comes into the arena with All I Do Is Win blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Pritchett's choice of entrance music: Protect your neck. Chris Pritchett struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.0lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Chris Pritchett has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
