AVKT 12: Justice Vs Norddahl PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ned Chicane (ranked 6371 p4p, 25397 weight class) and Raymond Dennis (ranked 397 p4p, 404 weight class). Raymond Dennis struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 147.3lbs 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. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
