Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Shoenfield Barnes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Paul Stannis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shoenfield Barnes had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.8lbs, 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. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
