PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sohrab Bahmanzade (ranked 6518 p4p, 3259 weight class) and Kaapo Westerinen (ranked 735 p4p, 483 weight class). Sohrab Bahmanzade had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.2lbs, 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. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
