PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Gold Ryan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ryan comes to the cage accompanied by Darude - Sandstorm. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.1lbs 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. 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 Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
