PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Mann (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cy Nasqu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nasqu has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
