PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ivan Zhukov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kadir Demir (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zhukov kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Feuer Frei. 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.
