Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Proto Type (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gabriel Roxas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roxas has chosen The World's Greatest as his entrance music. Proto Type 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. Gabriel Roxas will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
