PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Era Ojdanic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maurice Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Era Ojdanic had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.9lbs, 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. Era Ojdanic looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
