PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Hugo Jimenez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pithe Canthropus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Canthropus's choice of entrance music: Pizzaman - Trippin' On Sunshine. Pithe Canthropus struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.4lbs 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. Pithe Canthropus told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
