PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Police State (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rung Thrym (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think State might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to For Heavy Metal we will die!. Thrym has chosen We Are - Hollywood Undead as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
