Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Floyd Mayweather (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Genki Sudo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Genki Sudo struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.1lbs 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. Genki Sudo will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
