Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Walter Sobchak (ranked 21337 p4p, 245 weight class) and Kingsley Brown (ranked 4516 p4p, 88 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sobchak might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In). 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?
