PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Vince Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roger Salavara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roger Salavara struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 136.3lbs 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. Roger Salavara told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
