PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sven Johansson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Khal Drogo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Johansson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kesha's Backstabber. Khal Drogo struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.8lbs 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. This should be a great matchup!
