PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Duke Maximus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cray Stout (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Maximus might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to No Surrender . Stout is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by ¨LONG HARD TIMES TO COME. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
