PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Suchart Chaowanungkarn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pithe Canthropus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chaowanungkarn's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Muay Thai fight music. Canthropus is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Pizzaman - Trippin' On Sunshine. 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.
