PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between George Chavalo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shaq Attaq (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Attaq has chosen Edit Mix as his entrance music. Both these guys are coming into the fight with injuries so let's see if that has a bearing on the fight. George Chavalo had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.2lbs, 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. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
