PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dave Ysengrin (ranked 1772 p4p, 180 weight class) and Zdravko Dren (ranked 1714 p4p, 175 weight class). Ysengrin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cheeky Nandos. Dren has chosen GETO BOYS - mind of a lunatic as his entrance music. Zdravko Dren told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
