PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Action Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Colin Maguire (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maguire is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Over- Drake. Action Jackson had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.5lbs, 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. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Colin Maguire was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
