Coming up we have a featherweight kickboxing rules bout between Ip Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frulegur Wiskeber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Man's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Ip Man Vs 10 men. Wiskeber has chosen Go-go Dance as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Shia Locke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tubo Lard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lard has chosen I'm Fat as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
