PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Edward Nygma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Milovan Cirkovic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nygma kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Eazy E - Boys In Da Hood. Cirkovic has chosen Five Finger Death Punch - as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Edward Nygma had a look across the ring there at his opponent. He definitely means business
