Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Larry Hernandez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Drexler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Larry Hernandez had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.5lbs, 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. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jon Drexler was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
