PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Matt Seal (ranked 229 p4p, 778 weight class) and Yin Mao (ranked 18 p4p, 67 weight class). Mao is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by HonestKey- Pass. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
