edit: forgot to mention: 7PM, on PPV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErS34Re303I&t=75s WHAT THE gently caress Battlegrounds MMA is hosting an eight man Welterweight tournament held over one night, tonight. We care because it's on PPV and it has the following comentary team: CHAEL P SONNEN Notable for having a being involved in a property scam or something, having a big mouth, beating up Anderson Silva for five rounds before tapping out with like a second to go and then pissing hot afterwords, being an excellent MMA coach, almost beating Jon 'Herb' Jones via freakish foot injury and having a fatal weakness to triangle chokes. Was recently released from the UFC after testing positive for all the drugs. Currently competing in non NSAC sanctioned events only. JIM "JR" ROSS Notable for having his dad make him kill a bag full of puppies or something, I'm not sure, and for being 'the voice' of the World Wrestling Federation. Went legit and called some college football games for a year in the early nineties (I wanna say UGA?). Got fired from WWE beacuse he's Vince McMahon's bitch and he didn't stop Ric Flair talking about wrestling at a press event where Ric Flair was invited to talk about wrestling. Currently hosting his own rasslin' podcast where he gets known racists on to talk about how they're not racists and is generally very bitter. SPECIAL RULES The Atlhetic Commission posted:“Other than the normal requirements for MMA regulation, additional health and safety elements have been added,” Miller told Sherdog.com. “New CT scan, new EKG, new dilated fundoscopic, SCAT3, Sickle Cell, King-Devick, and IV fluid are available.” MEET THE FIGHTERS ROAN "Jucao" CANEIRO 17-9 Last fought in UFC: September 2008 Notable losses: Jon Fitch LUIGI "THE ITALIAN TANK" FIORAVNTI 24-11 Last fought in UFC: September 2009 Notable losses: Diego Sanches, Jon Fitch, Chris Leben. TREY "THAT JUST HAPPENED?" HOUSTON 10-2 Last Fought in UFC: Not yet. Notable Losses: He is 0-2 in Bellator. BROCK LARSON 37-8 Last fought in UFC: November 2009 Notable Losses: Carlos Conduit, Jon Fitch CODY 'AK KID' McKenzie 15-4 Last fought in UFC: Dec 2013 Notable losses: Sam Stout, Yves Edwards, Chad Mendes.

In college Trey Houston got wicked drunk and jumped headfirst into the shallow end of a pool, breaking his neck. I would not lay money on him going all the way tonight

I have thrown in with Cody McKenzie and I feel you should, too. Remember, other fighters might have better striking, grappling, wrestling, cardio and more blood than he does, but he is going to win.

Anyone know if the quarter/semifinals are 3 rounds straight up or 2+1 like TUF does?

First fight starting, one guy who's post-gyno surgery and one guy who's wearing a rashguard. This is off to a fantastic start.

The non-Chael announcer is Jim Ross, whose voice is an intersection of deep oklahoma accent and partial facial paralysis.

Other than Mckenzie, the only other dude I know is luigi. Any other fighters have something going for them?

Taylor can wrestle, has a lot of experience and has racked up a number of decent-level B-league scalps. He's also dumb as a post and managed to beat Kendall Grove without stopping him, so enh.

I wonder if there is any punishment for coming in over. A couple guys in the prelims and now Cody missed weight.

He initially came in over, and then went and donated a pint of blood and came back and made weight within the time limit. Cody McKenzie, ladies and gentlemen.
