Undercard bout
|
Fred Doggen really struggled with his weight cut for this fight. After coming in at 191.8, he had two hours to cut the additional weight. He was unable to do so and as a result, his fight with Benny Bravo was cancelled.
So, because the bout was cancelled, Benny Bravo retains his title. |
