PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Boris Bulletzowich (ranked 1268 p4p, 159 weight class) and Anti Half Assed (ranked 748 p4p, 98 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bulletzowich might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to THUNDERCAT - THEM CHANGES. Boris Bulletzowich had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 172.1lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
