PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Ip Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frulegur Wiskeber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Man's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Ip Man Vs 10 men. Wiskeber has chosen Go-go Dance 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.
