PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mikhail Nis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Justin Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones has chosen Violence- a day to remember as his entrance music. Mikhail Nis looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
