PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Irvine Kinneas (ranked 2208 p4p, 62 weight class) and Bang Pitung (ranked 4269 p4p, 119 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kinneas might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Judas Priest - Electric Eye. Pitung has chosen Madball - Born Strong as his entrance music. Pitung has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Irvine Kinneas has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
