Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sam Dos Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rock Johnston (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silva comes to the cage accompanied by Mack the knife. Sam Dos Silva had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.5lbs, 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. Rock Johnston is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
