Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between King Koch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sebastian Zebek (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). King Koch had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.4lbs, 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. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
