PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Brazilian Element I (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yoshida Kotaro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kotaro comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Dance Yourself Clean kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Kotaro has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Yoshida Kotaro is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
