UNCASVILLE, Conn. -- All fighters made weight Thursday for tomorrow's IFL event.

The only initial hiccup was with Josh Souder, who came in just a quarter of a pound heavy. Later he was spotted knocking back some peanut butter and M&M's, indicating that he was able to shed that minimal amount.

Brad Imes (Pictures) looked lean at 249 pounds for his challenge of IFL heavyweight champion Roy Nelson (Pictures).

The fights begin at 7:30 p.m. ET at the Mohegan Sun Arena and will be broadcast live on HDNet, starting at 8:30 p.m. ET.
