PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Santiago Ferreira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lucas Patos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Santiago Ferreira had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.2lbs, 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 really staring each other down here, as Lucas Patos enters the cage!
