Ward incessantly rambling about how much damage Greer is doing to the body of Potapov, and how Potapov is going to quit like he did against Narvaez, menwhile... most of them are clearly being caught on the elbows and arms of Potapov, but that's not slowing Dre down. Pumping out that propaganda 24/7.
