PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between SJ Mitchell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tom Hardy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tom Hardy struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.2lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. 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.
