PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Rodrigo Damm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Hogan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hogan has chosen Bite It You Scum by GG ALLIN as his entrance music. Rodrigo Damm had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.0lbs, 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 Hogan acknowledges the crowd's support as he enters the cage.
