Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between George Allen (ranked 4270 p4p, 430 weight class) and Tarvo Jaak (ranked 21159 p4p, 714 weight class). Allen kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Monster. Jaak has chosen Ludacris - Move Bitch as his entrance music. George Allen has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
