PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Grover Dowiyogo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Konstantin Zyuzin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dowiyogo's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, another life - kano. Konstantin Zyuzin struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 206.5lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Grover Dowiyogo is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
