PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Eric Esch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maxim Grigoriev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Esch kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Butter Bean song. Grigoriev has chosen Buju Banton - Walk Like A Champion as his entrance music. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
