PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tito Hall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Philip Levasqua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Levasqua's choice of entrance music: Endless Summer. Philip Levasqua struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 206.8lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
