Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ville Apila (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dick Grayson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Grayson has chosen To the Batmobile as his entrance music. Ville Apila had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 137.2lbs, 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. Ville Apila has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
