PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Albert Hoffman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Moritz Greve (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Greve has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
