Coming up we have a middleweight kickboxing rules bout between Dwan Diego (ranked 16049 p4p, 1373 weight class) and Sortek Redfist (ranked 712 p4p, 184 weight class). Diego's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Jiu Jitsu. 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.
