PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Burt Guth (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wong Mongtong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Guth comes to the cage accompanied by Alva Noto - Module 7. Mongtong has chosen Blackened as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
