PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Riordan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bari Rogers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rogers has chosen 96 Bars of Revenge as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Tommy Riordan had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.0lbs, 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. 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 Bari Rogers was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
