PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Shawn MacArthur (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and angry looser (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 170lb limit. Shawn MacArthur came in at 171.3 and angry looser came in at 171.1 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. This should be fireworks!
