Nunes comes into the arena with Never Be Alone blaring out of the sound system. Thory is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by It's a fight. Evangelista Nunes had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.0lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight.
