Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Derrick Coleman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Murphy Aindreas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Coleman kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Superstar by Lupe Fiasco. Murphy Aindreas told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Diego Silva struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.8lbs 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. We have two fighters making their debuts here, so let's see who comes out of this one with their first professional victory.
