PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Big John (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Charlton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). John comes to the cage accompanied by Roy Jones Jr. Must have forgot.. John has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. 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.
