Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Van Bone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jorge Turolla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jorge Turolla struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 206.3lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Jorge Turolla told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
