PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gustav Reich (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jim Wolf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jim Wolf struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 267.5lbs 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. Jim Wolf told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
