PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eugene Canedo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sheldon Chaykin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Canedo comes to the cage accompanied by NFG - Dressed to Kill (You). Eugene Canedo had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.0lbs, 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. 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.
