Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Frederick Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Drake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). 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 David Drake was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
