PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Kimbo Karinen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Abu Sayaf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Karinen comes to the ring accompanied by Big Baali & Tomigun - Kruisin´. Sayaf has chosen Brand Nubian - Allah U Akbar as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
