PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ricardo Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Voda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silva comes to the cage accompanied by Don Omar ft. Tego Calderon - Bandolero. Ricardo Silva had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.2lbs, 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. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
