PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Damien Oquinn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Piotr Redinov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Oquinn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Damian - King Gordy. 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.
