PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Dale Hathcock (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yoshio Yamamoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yamamoto has chosen WORLD ORDER - WORLD ORDER as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Dale Hathcock had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 136.3lbs, 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.
