PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sage Kopel (ranked 24926 p4p, 2226 weight class) and Klayton King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). King has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Klayton King has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
