PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Kyle Broflovski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mikami Kanno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kyle Broflovski had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.9lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
