PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Vince Magalhaes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wesley Julianno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vince Magalhaes had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.5lbs, 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. This should be a great matchup!
