Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eli Williams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Momoko Yamaguchi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Eli Williams had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.0lbs, 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. Momoko Yamaguchi acknowledges the crowd's support as he enters the cage.
