Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Lawrence Mars (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gektor Lombard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mars comes into the arena with Avenged Sevenfold's Nightmare blaring out of the sound system. Gektor Lombard struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 136.1lbs 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. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
