PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between John Dickenson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Borrum Someer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Someer has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. John Dickenson looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
