PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Christopher Fry (ranked 2830 p4p, 298 weight class) and Damir Stojnic (ranked 6873 p4p, 515 weight class). Christopher Fry had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.0lbs, 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. Damir Stojnic is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
