Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Peebles Humphrey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Enoch Thompson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Humphrey comes to the ring accompanied by Stand Up - Flobots. Peebles Humphrey had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.9lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
