PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dino Clavette (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy Ba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Clavette comes to the cage accompanied by Dead and Gone. Billy Ba struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 157.1lbs 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. 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.
