PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Benny Hill (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hill has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Michael Johnson told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
