Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Shamus McDermid (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jean Claude Van Damm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

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.
