Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mista Tee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Agares Atreides (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Atreides comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Heart of a fighter kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Agares Atreides struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 187.5lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Mista Tee looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
