PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Matt Cooper (ranked 5587 p4p, 3737 weight class) and Kingsley Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 454 weight class). Brown has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
