PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Randy Orton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Masahura Yakisoba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Orton comes to the cage accompanied by Voices by Rev Theory. Randy Orton had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.1lbs, 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. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
