PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Jackie Chung (ranked 24600 p4p, 4618 weight class) and Jagger Clay (ranked 158 p4p, 139 weight class). Chung kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Activated (BMX Escape Remix). These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
