PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Steve Mash (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leandro Lima (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mash kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is North Dakota State Fight Song. Lima is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Shadown Fall. Leandro Lima struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 157.8lbs 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. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
