AD427: Bad Blood PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Meyer Lansky (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Slevin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lansky's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Rag’n’Bone Man - Wolves . Slevin has chosen Metallica - Enter Sandman as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
