Main event

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Colt Steel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shawn Braxton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Steel kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is 'The Sparrow Looks Up At The Machine' by The Flaming Lips. Shawn Braxton has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
