PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Brock Dredd (ranked 165 p4p, 325 weight class) and Samuel Jones (ranked 19 p4p, 35 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dredd might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Wake up the Town. 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?
