PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dmitry Boitsoff (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Muay Thai (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Boitsoff's entrance music is My Domination. A fine choice. Thai is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Town Called Malice. 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?
