Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dan Sanderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Warren Hall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sanderson comes to the cage accompanied by I Run the Military. Hall has chosen Tinie Tempah - Simply Unstoppable as his entrance music. Warren Hall struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.1lbs 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. Dan Sanderson has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
