PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between William Mcintyre (ranked 4434 p4p, 4618 weight class) and Buster Kavanaugh (ranked 383 p4p, 389 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 Buster Kavanaugh was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
