Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jake The Snake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vin Diesel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jake The Snake had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.1lbs, 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. Vin Diesel has the eye of the tiger tonight.
