PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jesse Pinkman (ranked 79 p4p, 109 weight class) and Jaxon Magrath (ranked 16 p4p, 22 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pinkman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Quavo & Takeoff - Hotel Lobby . Jaxon Magrath struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.1lbs 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. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
