CCC 38: Castle vs Sokoudju PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Isaac Moore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Samuel Isaacson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Isaacson has chosen "Burning Down the House" by Talking Heads as his entrance music. Samuel Isaacson struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.7lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Samuel Isaacson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
