PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Anthony Wayne (ranked 566 p4p, 2368 weight class) and Manco Capac (ranked 65 p4p, 305 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wayne might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Edge Of A Revolution- Nickelback. The crowd seem to be enjoying Capac's choice of entrance music: Iggy Pop - The Passenger. Anthony Wayne has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
