Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Konji Yamaski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cornell Haynes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Konji Yamaski had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 137.8lbs, 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. Cornell Haynes will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
