Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Hinderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Garviel Loken (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Daniel Hinderson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.1lbs, 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. 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 Garviel Loken was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
