No Exit FC 94: Red Sky PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Roman Wiher (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Toby Evans (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roman Wiher had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.5lbs, 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. Toby Evans will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
