Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Duece Delta (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Blake Nash (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Delta comes to the cage accompanied by the tough guy song. Duece Delta had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.7lbs, 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. Blake Nash will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
