PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Sanders (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Hemingway (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hemingway has chosen Respect as his entrance music. Tommy Sanders had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.6lbs, 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. James Hemingway is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
