Coming up we have a middleweight kickboxing rules bout between Oglek Tomar (ranked 21720 p4p, 829 weight class) and Jerome Weathers (ranked 21609 p4p, 837 weight class). Weathers comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Heathens - Twenty One Pilots kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Jerome Weathers was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
