BAMMA 12The British Academy of Mixed Martial Arts is set to host it’s latest show tonight, live from the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle, England.

Headlining welterweights Matt Veach (166-lbs) and Jim ‘Judo’ Wallhead (170-lbs) had no issues making weight for their bout, but a scheduled title bout was in jeopardy temporarily after one of the fighters failed to make weight on their first attempt.

Stevie Ray (155.4) failed to make weight on his first attempt in a scheduled BAMMA Lonsdale British Lightweight title bout with Curt Warburton (153.4) but was given an hour and made weight on his second attempt.

Another scheduled match was cancelled after Jefferson George (162.6-lbs) failed to make the lightweight limit for his match with opponent Stephen Martin (154.6). Jefferson was given an hour to cut the weight but failed to do so and the match was scrapped.
