Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Tubo Lard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shamus McDermid (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lard might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I'm Fat. McDermid has chosen The Drunken Scotsman - The Irish Rovers 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!
