PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Alexander Iii (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and M J Shain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Iii kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is IRON MAIDEN : Alexander the Great . Shain has chosen Thunderstruck as his entrance music. 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.
