Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Nicol Abdulgani (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Robson Castro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nicol Abdulgani had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 147.4lbs, 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. Robson Castro is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
