PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Beast Mode (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Didier Drogba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mode might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to get up get down. Drogba has chosen Oh Father by Pastor Troy 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.
