Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Pewschewe Tigkwub (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aaron Buck (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pewschewe Tigkwub had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.3lbs, 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. Buckle up people - heeeeeeeeeere we go!
