Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Royler Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Athan Stamatis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stamatis is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Lose Yourself. Royler Gracie had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 267.2lbs, 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. Royler Gracie could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Athan Stamatis's chin.
