PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Mason Love (ranked 39 p4p, 249 weight class) and Detritus Rubble (ranked 3 p4p, 21 weight class). Love comes to the cage accompanied by HonestKey- Music. Rubble is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Flux Pavilion x Feed Me - Survive (feat. meesh). 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.
