Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Island Chief (ranked 5679 p4p, 4154 weight class) and Joe Pulizzi (ranked 581 p4p, 528 weight class). Island Chief had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.6lbs, 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. This should be a great matchup!
