Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Jon Erikson (ranked 4685 p4p, 3107 weight class) and Daniel Dimitrov (ranked 97 p4p, 65 weight class). Erikson's entrance music is Gåte - Statt Opp. A fine choice. Dimitrov has chosen Drake - Energy as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
