Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ronimus Roidrage (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Masurkka Paffendorf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roidrage has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Masurkka Paffendorf struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 206.3lbs 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. Masurkka Paffendorf is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Siegfried Keskimulkku (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and kaleidos kope (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Siegfried Keskimulkku had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.2lbs, 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. The key to victory for Siegfried Keskimulkku has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
