PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Zdravko Dren (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dren comes to the cage accompanied by GETO BOYS - mind of a lunatic. Smith has chosen 10 Years - All White as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Johnny Smith was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
