Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between You Lose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frankie Rock (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Frankie Rock struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.9lbs 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. You Lose has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
