Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between David Kyle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Meguru Takayanagi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kyle might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Big Booty Woman. Takayanagi has chosen All Rounder Meguru as his entrance music. Meguru Takayanagi struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 146.6lbs 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. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
