Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Nimos Oiky (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Corey Pot (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Oiky comes to the cage accompanied by In The Morning. Pot has chosen HighWay Star! as his entrance music. Nimos Oiky had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.3lbs, 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. Nimos Oiky has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
