PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Flare (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Franco Colombo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Colombo has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. John Flare could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Franco Colombo's chin.
