Coming up we have a middleweight kickboxing rules bout between Robert Archer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Lawrence (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Archer comes to the ring accompanied by Crysis. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Johnny Lawrence was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Danny Osei Tutu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ricardo Awa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ricardo Awa struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 156.5lbs 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. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
