Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tamdan McCrory (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy wescott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tamdan McCrory had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.7lbs, 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. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
