PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jeb James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wilson Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silva has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Jeb James could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Wilson Silva's chin.
