PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roy Jones Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frank Roberts (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roberts is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Intergalactic. Roy Jones Jr looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
