PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Gerard Acker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Mcghee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mcghee has chosen Like a Prayer as his entrance music. Tony Mcghee struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 146.5lbs 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.
