    Pretty sure we can see Michael Bisping in action elsewhere but w/e.

    This is an interesting concept. I think the idea is to appeal to a wide swath of fans. I think the reality will be no one will give a shit.

    Dan Severn is 57-years old. His last fight with Shamrock is considered one of the worst in MMA history.

    Ken Shamrock is suspended so he can't face Dan Severn at this event. The organizers contacted Tank Abbott but Tank has failed his physicals and is not allowed to compete. Not sure whoSevern will face, now. Probably nobody since this event is going down on the 20th.

    So, this happened. Bisping and Sonnen had an uneventful grappling match. Angle wrestled Mysterio, who had help from Riff Raff. Dan Severn didn't fight. Roy Jones casually knocked out some jabroni. Apparently the whole thing was a bit of a gong show.
