Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Raivo Jaak (ranked 7436 p4p, 618 weight class) and Rick Ross (ranked 5679 p4p, 551 weight class).

Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!

Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Markus Remoreras (ranked 10205 p4p, 509 weight class) and Erick Clap (ranked 3282 p4p, 286 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Remoreras might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ludacris feat. Nas and Jay-Z - I Do It For Hip-Hop. Clap has chosen Burn it to the ground as his entrance music. Markus Remoreras has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
