Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Pete Sproles (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sproles's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, can't be touched -Roy Jones Jr. Pete Sproles had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.1lbs, 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. Ryan Gracie will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
