PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jake Demuss (ranked 4853 p4p, 1976 weight class) and Moritz Zimmerman (ranked 585 p4p, 266 weight class). Demuss's entrance music is Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck. A fine choice. Jake Demuss had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.0lbs, 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. Moritz Zimmerman will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
