PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Aloe Toosh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and BJ Penn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Toosh kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is dollar. Aloe Toosh had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.2lbs, 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. This should be fireworks!
