Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Mae Joon (ranked 24213 p4p, 5625 weight class) and Lester Neich (ranked 413 p4p, 366 weight class). Neich comes into a darkened arena with his song building. YKWIM? - Yot club kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Mae Joon had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.2lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Lester Neich acknowledges the crowd's support as he enters the ring.
