PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Juho Pennanen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Fjodor Lomanov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lomanov comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Clawfinger - Biggest & The Best kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Juho Pennanen had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.1lbs, 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. Fjodor Lomanov is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
