If you can make it to the fight, be sure to stream them live on Fite TV, as Will Barry and Kyle Carroll return to the booth.

Giglia will be battling Kim Benincasa in a catchweight 130 bout. Liz speaks about the short time she has been training but believes when she steps inside the cage, and the Great Mike Falvo announces her name she’ll come out looking like an experienced fighter.
