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