PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Edgard Britto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Big Jon Hess (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Hess's choice of entrance music: How Much Is the Fish?. Hess has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
