PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Miguel Cotto (ranked 4521 p4p, 3103 weight class) and Hakeem Oki (ranked 97 p4p, 74 weight class). Oki has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
