Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Francisco Guillerdo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergey Kharinov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Guillerdo's entrance music is Digital Animal. A fine choice. Kharinov has chosen Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls as his entrance music. Kharinov has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
