PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Cox (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Agapito Sanchez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 145lb limit. Daniel Cox came in at 147.8 and Agapito Sanchez came in at 148.0 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
