PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Butch Williams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nick Fallout (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 170lb limit. Butch Williams came in at 171.4 and Nick Fallout came in at 171.6 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. Butch Williams has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
