PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Nero La Croix (ranked 21260 p4p, 762 weight class) and Love Bug (ranked 9555 p4p, 737 weight class). La Croix's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, La Meme Chose. Bug is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ice Cube - Why We Thugs. Nero La Croix could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Love Bug's chin.
