Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Magnus Hammersmith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adrian Kaczjarg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
