Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Lamar Bright (ranked 4814 p4p, 4391 weight class) and Max Kinnaman (ranked 470 p4p, 445 weight class). Max Kinnaman struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.0lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Max Kinnaman is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
