PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Pope Cozad (ranked 23572 p4p, 1712 weight class) and Alec Harvey (ranked 446 p4p, 167 weight class). Cozad comes into the arena with Spirit In The Sky- Norman Greenbaum blaring out of the sound system. Harvey has chosen I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME - Choke as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Pope Cozad had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.2lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
