Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Paul Franko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jorden Ellis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ellis has chosen M.E.T.H.O.D. Man as his entrance music. Paul Franko had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.1lbs, 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. Jorden Ellis has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Paul Franko's chin.
