PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Mirko Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tristan Blancheflor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blancheflor has chosen Game of Thrones as his entrance music. Mirko Silva had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 147.4lbs, 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. The key to victory for Mirko Silva has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
