PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Lachlan Myers (ranked 22769 p4p, 470 weight class) and Bruce White Jr (ranked 3939 p4p, 296 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Myers might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Soldier's Song. Lachlan Myers had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.2lbs, 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. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
