Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between John Beak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Greg Mungo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). John Beak had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.6lbs, 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. John Beak looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
