PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Phillip Barron (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joseph Stevenson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Barron's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dizzee Rascal - Bonkers. Stevenson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Higher Ground - Red Hot Chili Peppers. Phillip Barron had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.1lbs, 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. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
