A "dance off" - you mean a fight, right?

When the article talks about setting up a Khan-Maidana fight, and then says "both fighters had agreed to a dance off", I'm not 100% sure it means a boxing match. I'm going to change it but it would be better if the original author just used plain language. (Or, if I'm wrong and there really was an actual dance off, then the original author should have made the context more explicit since it's not obvious.)
