Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Zdravko Dren (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Khaled Kalil (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dren might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to GETO BOYS - mind of a lunatic. Kalil is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Black Rob - Whoa!. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
