PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jeff Messer (ranked 4214 p4p, 142 weight class) and Harald Knochmal (ranked 4191 p4p, 140 weight class). Messer's entrance music is Lumberjacks march-by Conway Twittie. A fine choice. 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.
