Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Nathaniel Tabares (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kewin Bielak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tabares comes to the cage accompanied by your a jerk. Bielak has chosen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AShaUsj8HkI as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Nathaniel Tabares had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.7lbs, 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. Nathaniel Tabares has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
