PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Buck Morris (ranked 6306 p4p, 584 weight class) and Paul Sight (ranked 5365 p4p, 547 weight class). Morris kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Radioactive - Imagine Dragons feat. Kendrick Lamar. Buck Morris had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.2lbs, 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. Paul Sight will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
