PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Jorden Swift (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Murad Saidov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Swift might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hail Mary - Tupac. Saidov has chosen Club Akhmat as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
