Coming up we have a middleweight kickboxing rules bout between Tai Kiki Tangata Kohuru (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vinnie Vector (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tangata Kohuru kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is ACID TRIP. Vector has chosen Hollywood Undead-Undead as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
