Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Sith Kyaw Thin (ranked 5313 p4p, 40 weight class) and Bob Cook (ranked 999 p4p, 13 weight class).

Coming up we have a welterweight kickboxing rules bout between Batuhan Jaruud (ranked 1965 p4p, 247 weight class) and Khru Jako (ranked 5577 p4p, 504 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jaruud might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Three 6 Mafia - Side to Side. Jako has chosen Catch a Fire as his entrance music. Batuhan Jaruud has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
