FURY 10 PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ramon Castle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bruno Okenfeld (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ramon Castle had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.8lbs, 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. Ramon Castle looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
