PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Sortek Redfist (ranked 22878 p4p, 22891 weight class) and Carlotos Spiteri (ranked 690 p4p, 680 weight class). Redfist kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Earl Sweatshirt-Chum. Spiteri has chosen Day to day basis as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Sortek Redfist has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
