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