PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Long Dong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hane Goshi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Long Dong had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.7lbs, 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. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
