Main event

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Mate Orsic (ranked 142 p4p, 121 weight class) and Chest Mangold (ranked 19 p4p, 15 weight class). Orsic comes to the cage accompanied by KRS One - Rappaz R. N. Dainja. Mate Orsic had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.2lbs, 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.
