The guy who did this to Rashad Evans will be fighting a Welterweight tomorrow!

This may be a first for the sport of MMA.  Tomorrow at the ShoXC event, the current Gladiator Challenge Middleweight Champion is going to cut weight and will be taking on the current Gladiator Challenge Welterweight Champion.

Jeremiah Metcalf (current Welterweight Champ) was originally scheduled to fight fellow welterweight Aaron Wetherspoon until Wethtespoon suffered a last minute injury.  Jamie Jara (Middleweight Champ) will be stepping up to take Aaron’s place. 

This should make for a very interesting fight.  Metcalf might have been better off with his original opponent as his replacement (Jamie Jara) has won 11 out of his last 12 fights.  The one loss was a decision against Rashad Evans.
