Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between chucky little (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and JJ Thor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). chucky little had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.6lbs, 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. JJ Thor is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
