PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jon Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kepa Keton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, King of Pain by Mudvayne. Keton has chosen Como un Rayo! as his entrance 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.
