PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Grim Death (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and AJ Lumsden (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Grim Death had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.5lbs, 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. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
