Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Tony Tits (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Erick Murphy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Erick Murphy struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.8lbs 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. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
