Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Mikhail Tarasov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bart Finkelton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tarasov's entrance music is The Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone . A fine choice. 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 Bart Finkelton was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
