PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Pete Reed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Matt Young (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pete Reed had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.3lbs, 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. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
