PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Kenneth Noisewater (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jadon Phillips (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Noisewater's entrance music is keine lust. A fine choice. Jadon Phillips struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.6lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jadon Phillips was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
