Coming up we have a middleweight kickboxing rules bout between Khaled Khaled (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dominick Rivaldi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Khaled might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to DJ Khaled - All I Do Is Win. Rivaldi has chosen Joker's Wild as his entrance music. 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.
