PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Flauterio Toglas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Manny Pacquiao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Toglas might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bodies. Pacquiao has chosen ten thousand fists as his entrance music. Flauterio Toglas had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.2lbs, 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. This should be fireworks!
