Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jindra Bartko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Sorrentino (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bartko comes to the cage accompanied by Cypress Hill - Shut 'Em down (feat. Tom Morelo). Jindra Bartko had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.2lbs, 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. Jindra Bartko could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Mike Sorrentino's chin.
