PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Diego Veiga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Reginald Nefarious (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Veiga comes to the cage accompanied by Enter Sandman. Diego Veiga had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.8lbs, 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. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Reginald Nefarious was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
