Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Jet Hemi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wayne McGain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hemi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Satyricon - Fuel For Hatred. Wayne McGain struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 136.3lbs 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. Wayne McGain is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
