PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Mason Love (ranked 76 p4p, 249 weight class) and Matt Seal (ranked 5 p4p, 24 weight class). Love's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, HonestKey- Music. 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.
