PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Jonny (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brock Lesnar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lesnar has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Mike Jonny looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
