Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Paul Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luras Vart (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Luras Vart struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.4lbs 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. Luras Vart will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
