PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between More IsMore (ranked 392 p4p, 2945 weight class) and Jimmy Fothergill (ranked 52 p4p, 332 weight class). Fothergill comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Austrian Death Machine - Get To The Choppa kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
