PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Greg Bustack (ranked 25524 p4p, 6527 weight class) and Justin Jackson (ranked 644 p4p, 569 weight class). Greg Bustack had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.3lbs, 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. 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.
