Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Tyrone Spong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Abdullah Abdullah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Spong comes to the ring accompanied by I Will Not Bow. Tyrone Spong had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.2lbs, 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. We have two fighters making their debuts here, so let's see who comes out of this one with their first professional victory.
