Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Juhis Spordo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Teemu Yumma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yumma has chosen Poison as his entrance music. Juhis Spordo had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.5lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight.
