Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Bun Chantha (ranked 4474 p4p, 428 weight class) and Leonardo Atunes (ranked 1523 p4p, 184 weight class). Chantha kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is WORDS BOXIN. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Morgan Wade (ranked 3773 p4p, 382 weight class) and Dany Crosby (ranked 1790 p4p, 217 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wade might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Bleeding. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
