Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tyron Woodley (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Omicron PerseiSeven (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Woodley kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Hangar-The Reason of your Conviction. Omicron PerseiSeven struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 172.1lbs 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. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
