PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Shiro Toushiro (ranked 4237 p4p, 5491 weight class) and Yuki Talbain (ranked 467 p4p, 543 weight class). Talbain has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
