PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jay Cutler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Malcomes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Malcomes has chosen Joe Esposito - You're the Best as his entrance music. Jay Cutler had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.3lbs, 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. This should be fireworks!
