Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Thom Tharrier (ranked 5794 p4p, 6070 weight class) and Daniel Dimitrov (ranked 183 p4p, 186 weight class). Dimitrov has chosen Drake - Energy as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
