PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joseph Barney (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Travis Randy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Joseph Barney had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.0lbs, 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. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
