PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Tei Yeily (ranked 20228 p4p, 724 weight class) and Saenchai Sor. Khamsing (ranked 4612 p4p, 487 weight class). Sor. Khamsing comes into a darkened arena with his song building. PKSaenchaimuaythaigym kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Saenchai Sor. Khamsing was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
