PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Matvey Pavlov (ranked 984 p4p, 101 weight class) and Magomed Khaibulaev (ranked 2892 p4p, 254 weight class). Pavlov kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Prokofiev - Dance of the Knights. Magomed Khaibulaev struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 147.3lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Matvey Pavlov has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
