PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Love Bug (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyler Crain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bug kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Big Ballin with My Homies. Crain is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by The Roots - Kool On. Tyler Crain has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
