Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Alistair Spong (ranked 4241 p4p, 463 weight class) and Sher Shah Suri (ranked 11729 p4p, 770 weight class). Spong's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, 2Pac - I'm A Soldier (Echale Mojo Remix) . Suri has chosen Bohemia - Kali Denali as his entrance music. 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.
