Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jason Glover (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Quik Yin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yin is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by I Got A Feeling (lol :P). Quik Yin struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.1lbs 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. 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.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Avon Barksdale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adam Duritz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Barksdale might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Three Six Mafia - Its A Fight . Avon Barksdale had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.7lbs, 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. This should be fireworks!
