PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Conan Barbarian (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lyoto Machida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Conan Barbarian had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.8lbs, 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. Conan Barbarian could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Lyoto Machida's chin.
