Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kesuke Miyagi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tombstone Terry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Miyagi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Your'e The Best Around. Kesuke Miyagi could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Tombstone Terry's chin.
