Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rick Roen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Storman Norman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rick Roen had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 267.0lbs, 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. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
