Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Rashad Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Anton The Jew (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jackson comes to the cage accompanied by Pants On tha Ground. Rashad Jackson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.4lbs, 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. Rashad Jackson has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
