PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jan Molby (ranked 5117 p4p, 603 weight class) and Wagner Resende (ranked 3882 p4p, 506 weight class). Jan Molby had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.0lbs, 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. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
