Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dick Dennison (ranked 698 p4p, 814 weight class) and David Scott (ranked 100 p4p, 118 weight class). Dick Dennison had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.6lbs, 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. Dick Dennison is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
