PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Joe Raclef (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kata Guruma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Joe Raclef had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.6lbs, 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. Joe Raclef looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
