PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Kareem Aziz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Richard Batsbak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Aziz's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lowkey- Long Live Palestine. 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.
