PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jaxon Magrath (ranked 211 p4p, 350 weight class) and Cormac Mac Airt (ranked 37 p4p, 58 weight class). Jaxon Magrath had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.1lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
