PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tyler Killsbrough (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Allen Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Allen Jones struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.6lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
