    I wouldn't put too much faith in this happening, since the promotion behind it hasn't even been named, but it would be a fun freakshow fight.

    I've never seen anyone that hates getting hit in the face more then Sapp, so that's all Lashley needs to do to win. Chances are he won't be able to outmuscle him.

    This fight just screams Japan:lol:, I am suprised Dream didn't pick this up as a sideshow fight. Pride had the best freakshow fights. Remember Giant Silva? I used to love that guy!:partie:

    Considering Lashley wasn't all that impressive against Jason Guida it's not a given Lashley wins. It's a significant step up for Lashley. Sapp could even win this.

    no doubt, Sapp is a freakshow, but his sheer size alone is hard to deal with.

    Sapp's definitely a test no matter what the circumstances.

    Lashley won tonight, choking out someone called Mike Cook with a guillotine in about 10 seconds tonight on HDNet.

    MFC out of Canada. They show them on HDNet all the time. Not a bad little promotion, although it's a ring and not a cage.

    It was pathetic. That clown pretty much stuck his neck out and whispered "ok go ahead and end this" in the first 10 seconds of the fight. Pathetic.

    yeah, that was pathetic.:lol:

    I actually thought the matchup was a decent one for Lashley too. I had seen Mike Cook fight on Elite XC. He lost but didn't look horrible like he did there. I just looked up his record, he is above 500 and has a win over Carter Williams from K-1. Lashley is just so fucking strong.

    by the way anyone know the dimensions on that ring? it looks huge!
