PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tyson Drone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zeke Rivers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Drone kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is t.i and ludacris-wish you would. Rivers has chosen Suffa by Hed Pe as his entrance music. Tyson Drone has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
