Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Buster Hymen (ranked 3705 p4p, 3972 weight class) and Sick Guy (ranked 456 p4p, 479 weight class). Guy has chosen bitches aint shit as his entrance music. Buster Hymen 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. Buster Hymen looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
