PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Shogan Aye (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Police State (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). State is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Die for Metal. Police State told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
