PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Abasi Njagi (ranked 542 p4p, 1049 weight class) and Mason Love (ranked 48 p4p, 78 weight class). Njagi comes into the arena with The Game - Name Me King (Feat. Pusha T) blaring out of the sound system. Love has chosen HonestKey- Music as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Mason Love will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
