ShugaR comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Dagestan kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Adam Gaziev had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.4lbs, 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.
