PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Raegan Penn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and lee kiesel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Raegan Penn had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.0lbs, 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. lee kiesel has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
