PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ricky Mourke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joni Johnsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Johnsson 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! Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
