Biff

Just got a call from Jerod Phillips, owner of Tap or Sleep fightwear, who is with Biff Walizer in Florence, KY for Biff's fight tonight at Intimidation Cage Fighting.

Jerod said Biff made weight last night - right on the money at 155 - and has already gained back about seven pounds. They've spent the day just hanging out, watching football on TV.

Right now they're at the fairgrounds where the fight's going to happen, just waiting to hear from the promoters and check out the cage.

The weather's fair, no clouds, which is a good thing, considering it's an outdoor event.

Did a little checking on Michael "Mick" Berwanger, Biff's opponent. According to his myspace, he's a 31-year-old construction worker from Covington, KY. I couldn't find out where he trains, or what he favors in a fight - groundfighting, striking, etc. He's also 5'11", so we'll see if that's a factor in the fight, as Biff is several inches shorter.

Berwanger is, like Biff, 0-1, having lost on May 10, 2008 by TKO in the second round.

I'll post more updates as I get them. Biff's fight should start around 10:30 p.m. There's a ton of amateur fights they've got to get through first.
