|
Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Michael MP (ranked 3313 p4p, 282 weight class) and Toktogulovich Bakiyev (ranked 2250 p4p, 214 weight class). MP kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Whitesnake - Is This Love?. On his way into the ring it seems that Michael MP has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Michael MP seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Howard Stern (ranked 1944 p4p, 191 weight class) and David Tua (ranked 23863 p4p, 498 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Stern might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Great American Nightmare. Tua has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!
