PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Android Four (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and tj Wash (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wash has chosen you dont know as his entrance music. Android Four had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.2lbs, 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. Man, I cannot wait for this one!
