Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ricardo Talisay (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brian Terreto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ricardo Talisay had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.9lbs, 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. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
