PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between DreQuan Watson (ranked 3959 p4p, 6645 weight class) and Edouard Ngirente (ranked 489 p4p, 626 weight class). Watson's entrance music is Loneliness . A fine choice. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
