PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Juan Carlos Escobar (ranked 2886 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jackson Kassongo (ranked 2847 p4p, 0 weight class). Kassongo has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Jackson Kassongo has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
