PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Leandro Oliveira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael The Count (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Oliveira comes to the cage accompanied by Lying from you. The Count has chosen Run This Town as his entrance music. Leandro Oliveira had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.6lbs, 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. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
