Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Heinz Doofenshmirtz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Lewis St Clair (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Doofenshmirtz comes into the arena with Feuer Frei -by- Rammstein blaring out of the sound system. St Clair is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ready to Die. 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.
