PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Galvao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Goncalo Amorim (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Galvao comes to the cage accompanied by Uh Papai Chego. Goncalo Amorim struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.8lbs 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. Daniel Galvao looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
