Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Mitch Roxton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adrien Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roxton is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
