PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Master Cpp (ranked 5708 p4p, 433 weight class) and Aaron Lowell (ranked 4570 p4p, 396 weight class). Lowell has chosen The Qemists - Run You as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
