Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Vasily Grossman (ranked 1903 p4p, 22322 weight class) and Kyle Kovingten (ranked 255 p4p, 641 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Kovingten's choice of entrance music: Tool - Schism. 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?
