PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Archie Moore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michal Suchacki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Suchacki has chosen Ide Prosto as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Archie Moore had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.9lbs, 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. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
