PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Pavel Burov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dude Love (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Burov's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Russian Rocket. Love is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Imagine. 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.
