Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Pat Barry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Feyd Rautha Harkonnen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Harkonnen has chosen The Headstones-Heart of Darkness as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
