PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Silver Surfer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Benton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silver Surfer had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.3lbs, 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. Silver Surfer has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
