Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Blonde Brunson (ranked 2471 p4p, 1194 weight class) and Romulo Ferreira (ranked 163 p4p, 97 weight class). Blonde Brunson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.4lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
