Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Kyle Kovingten (ranked 23056 p4p, 4336 weight class) and Pinero Chai (ranked 580 p4p, 442 weight class).

Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Melankomas Caria (ranked 23035 p4p, 22654 weight class) and Marco Salamanca (ranked 610 p4p, 623 weight class). Caria comes to the ring accompanied by Roy Jones Jr - I Smoke, I Drink feat. Mr. Magic & Youngbloodz). Salamanca is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Superstar Cypress Hill. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Marco Salamanca was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
