PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Manolo Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Danny Rand (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Manolo Silva had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.1lbs, 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. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
