Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Chen Khan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Prof Baltazar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Prof Baltazar struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 147.2lbs 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. Prof Baltazar told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
