PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gregg Holoweiser (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Steven Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Johnson has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. 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?
