Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Nick Demetriou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antonio da Costa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nick Demetriou had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.8lbs, 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. Nick Demetriou has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
