PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Noel Severino (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Colin O Reilly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). O Reilly is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Dropkick Murphys- I'm Shipping Up To Boston. 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.
