Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Charles Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Miles Sera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Miles Sera struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 207.8lbs 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 solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
