Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Robert MacArthur Jnr (ranked 3063 p4p, 417 weight class) and Jacques Saint-Perrilloux (ranked 1953 p4p, 294 weight class). MacArthur Jnr kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Scotland the Brave. Saint-Perrilloux is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Back In The Saddle. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
