Kings of Rio 10 - Armageddon PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Josh Shatto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ivory Pound (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shatto comes to the cage accompanied by The Night. Josh Shatto had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.8lbs, 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. Ivory Pound is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jorge Lopez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Snuka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lopez comes to the cage accompanied by Party Down. Snuka comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Missy Elliot - The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly) kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Jorge Lopez looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Anders Dede (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dameon Machida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dede might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Warriors Dance. Machida is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Brazilian Death.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Barry Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hucklebuck Cassidy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smith might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to When Will They Shoot. The crowd seem to be enjoying Cassidy's choice of entrance music: It's so easy. Cassidy has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Renan Guedes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gianfranco Zola (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zola has chosen Balls to the Wall as his entrance music. Renan Guedes had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 137.6lbs, 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. This should be a great matchup!
