Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jossie Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Fedor Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jossie Silva comes to the cage accompanied by Ladies and Gentlemen-Saliva. Fedor Silva struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.0lbs 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. Fedor Silva will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
