Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Hale Erwin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tubo Lard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Erwin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Young Jeezy feat. T.I. - F.A.M.E.. Lard is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: I'm Fat. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
