PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Robert Alomar (ranked 2188 p4p, 256 weight class) and Mace Windu (ranked 2625 p4p, 298 weight class). Robert Alomar had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.4lbs, 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. Mace Windu will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
