PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sham Wowner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Miran Aspenstrand (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wowner kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Empire. Aspenstrand is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Inflames - Take This Life. 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.
