Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Ward Henry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Knezevic Siesztrzewitowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Siesztrzewitowski is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: snoop dogg-serial killa. 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.

Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Antoine Lakazette (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yasiel Chapman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Yasiel Chapman has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
