PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jacques La Haine (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adrian Shota (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think La Haine might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Cut Killer - Nique La Police. The crowd seem to be enjoying Shota's choice of entrance music: Black Panther Theme by Stephen James Taylor . Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
