Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Dwayne Michael Carter II (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vos Reinaert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vos Reinaert struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.4lbs 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. Vos Reinaert is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
