UEC 25: The Horror PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Stan Mathers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shane Sharp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stan Mathers 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. Stan Mathers has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mickey Flynn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mark Wood (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Flynn's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bad Ass by Mickey Finn & Aphrodite. Wood has chosen X Gonna Give It To Ya as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Mark Wood was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
