Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Halldor Omarsson (ranked 1820 p4p, 201 weight class) and Test Fighter D (ranked 2120 p4p, 231 weight class). Halldor Omarsson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.9lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
