PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Rory Devaney (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dalson Barros (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 145lb limit. Rory Devaney came in at 146.3 and Dalson Barros came in at 146.7 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
