PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Satashinko Yuo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kevin Brugnolo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Satashinko Yuo had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.1lbs, 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. The key to victory for Satashinko Yuo has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
