Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Lucas Torres (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Oscar Silva da Luciano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lucas Torres had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.1lbs, 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. Oscar Silva da Luciano has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Kai Tyson has stepped it up - he knows he needs a finish here! Tyson looks shocked there as he takes a right hand to the temple.
And that's the end of the fight! Denton Thunder comfortably won the final round on my scorecard. Well Thunder has outworked and out performed his opponent in all aspects of the game today. He was simply too good and the decision should be no more than a formality. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision. Judge Mauricio Rocha scores the fight 24:30 Judge Matheus Silva scores the fight 24:30 Judge Leandro Rodrigues scores the fight 24:30
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Denton Thunder!
