Hey all, 

This event won't be added to the FightCenter, since it's not MMA, but I wanted to post it because it looks interesting and it's something I've been wanting to see for a while. 

Looks like a bunch of MMA fighters will be competing in a modified-rules striking-only event. No ground fighting allowed, but could be an interesting venture. They're also using modified gloves that are supposed to be a cross between boxing and MMA gloves.

This is like that weird MMA event that was in Australia not long ago.
