Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Dean Paterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Thiago Grove (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dean Paterson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.1lbs, 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. Dean Paterson looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
