PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between James Adams (ranked 3005 p4p, 79 weight class) and Arnaldo Silva (ranked 19336 p4p, 177 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Adams might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Thom Pace - Maybe. Adams has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. James Adams has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
