Mauro Cerilli is a beast, needs to be in the UFC soon for sure.

So you're sayin my running joke of "the only good Italian fighter is Georio Petrosyan, and he's from Armenia" is no longer funny?

@ImperatorFishrat: Yeah I know. Similar case is Carlo Pedersoli Jr, he's born in Miami but he live all of his life in Rome.

Roberto is a huge underdog here since he was (almost) retired and Dalby, instead, is a proved veteran of the European scene.
The Danish fighters said on his social media the he's going to eat Italian again. Too bad he had an indigestion the last time! :)

Let's focus on the future, now. Next in line is Valeriu Mircea:
Mircea (21-5-1) is going to face former UFC and Cage veteteran Anton Kuivanen (26-10) at Cage 44 on 8th September.
Valerio is a freaking beast, is relentless! He's going to have his 28 bout in just 3 years of pro career (in 2016 he fought 12 times!!!). It'll be the fifth match in 2018.

I predict big things coming in Valeriu's future.

Still unclear if that will harm her MMA career.

I can't blame him though. He's young. He'll learn from this.
