Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jesse Custer (ranked 801 p4p, 1933 weight class) and Marco Bjurstrom (ranked 103 p4p, 221 weight class). Jesse Custer had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.0lbs, 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. Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!
