I’m actually looking forward to seeing how the ‘Donger’ will do as a welterweight. Hopefully they won’t match him up with someone that will slaughter him.
zach do you think this will be on fuji tv?
I’m not sure. I think a lot depends on if a big name like Gomi appears. Kawajiri is set to appear, but not having Gomi could be a factor.
