PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kaio Henrique De Paulas (ranked 3277 p4p, 3300 weight class) and Raimo Kivi (ranked 445 p4p, 447 weight class). Kaio Henrique De Paulas had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.7lbs, 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.
