The event is set to take place at Esports Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
“It’s the biggest advantage I have at 145-pounds,” Salmon said. “Nobody ever saw the struggles I had at 135-pounds. You’ll see the best of me at 145-pounds, all cylinders fired. A lot of the fighters today struggle to make that weight. I just don’t have that mental tax on me anymore. I wasn’t able to perform at 135-pounds.”
