Undercard bout

Oson Bon really struggled with his weight cut for this fight. After coming in at 253.7, he had two hours to cut the additional weight. He was unable to do so and as a result, his fight with Carlotos Spiteri was cancelled.
So, the belt remains unclaimed. Very disappointing for everyone involved! |

Coming up we have a light heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Riley Knox (ranked 5334 p4p, 2733 weight class) and Sortek Redfist (ranked 556 p4p, 357 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Knox might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Roy Jones Jr - I Smoke, I Drink feat. Mr. Magic & Youngbloodz). Riley Knox has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
