PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gary Bakers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aaron Patterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gary Bakers had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.1lbs, 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. Aaron Patterson is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
