PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Yoshi Morimoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kris Blackman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yoshi Morimoto had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.3lbs, 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. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
