PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Moore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Will Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mark Moore had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.6lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Will Brown has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
