PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Kenny Smith (ranked 699 p4p, 22771 weight class) and Johnny Lawrence (ranked 97 p4p, 586 weight class). Smith's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, IS THIS LOVE. 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.
