PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Dwayne King (ranked 21294 p4p, 4110 weight class) and Nik Snow (ranked 704 p4p, 476 weight class). I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Nik Snow was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
