Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between JJ Kamahawe Ole (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Camden Brooking (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kamahawe Ole kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is E ala E by Israel . JJ Kamahawe Ole had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.0lbs, 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. JJ Kamahawe Ole has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
