Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tom Watson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dean Smedley (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dean Smedley struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.6lbs 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. Tom Watson looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
