Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Maniek King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mariano Mison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maniek King had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 148.0lbs, 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. Maniek King had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
