Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between AkoSii MangJose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Radoslaw Michalak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Michalak comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Nas ft. Puff Daddy - You Can Hate Me Now kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! AkoSii MangJose had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.0lbs, 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. Radoslaw Michalak has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
