“Unleashed” showcased a title match between the GC Super Heavyweight Champion, Rick Vardell, and MMA legend Dan “The Beast” Severn, GC Middleweight Champion James “The Educator” Fanshier defending his strap against Keith “KO Kid” Berry, and a GC Heavyweight Championship fight between title-holder Rob “Caveman” Jackson and fan favorite Deutsch Pu’u.

Correction: Dan Severn did not fight this evening as planned due to a death in the family. Chris Sheridan fought Fransier and Sheridan won.

not sure why folks like to watch adult men roll around in underwear with other adult men? this stuff is so homo-erotic! I've seen tamer gay porn! Fascinating...maybe that is good though..that men are getting in touch(literally) with their and other men's manhood and not threatened by a nearly naked man..with his face in another nearly naked man's crotch.

Clearly you don't have the slightest bit of knowledge about the sport. I would also welcome you to walk into any local MMA gym and say those comments to their face...I doubt you'll be so bold.
