PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kyoshiro Mibu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gio Warren (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 185lb limit. Kyoshiro Mibu came in at 186.3 and Gio Warren came in at 186.6 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. Kyoshiro Mibu has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
