Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tsau Tsetsku (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dark Terror (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tsetsku kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Paula Seling & Ovi - Miracle. 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.
