PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Ugor Makinwa (ranked 2639 p4p, 391 weight class) and Andriy Pavlyuchenko (ranked 18351 p4p, 915 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Makinwa might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Beast - Tech N9ne. Pavlyuchenko has chosen Mushroomhead-Soltaire Unraveling as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
