PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Micky McFinigan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sten Carlssen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McFinigan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I'm Shipping Up To Boston - Dropkick Murphys. Micky McFinigan had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.5lbs, 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. Sten Carlssen will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
