Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jackson Boone (ranked 1384 p4p, 180 weight class) and Robert Drummond (ranked 767 p4p, 104 weight class). Boone comes to the ring accompanied by Violeta. Jackson Boone had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.5lbs, 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.
