FFB 63: Rio Super Six Rd 1 PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ambrose Kornikova (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ricardo Barros (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ambrose Kornikova had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 267.8lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Ambrose Kornikova has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Matt Piletich (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pizzazz Longez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Piletich kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Manowar-King of Kings. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
