Discuss Mixed Martial Arts fighters here from Fedor Emelianenko to Sean Sherk or maybe you would like to discuss upcoming events from organizations such as UFC, Pride or K-1.
Affliction Entertainment, scheduled to make its MMA debut on July 19 at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., keeps building this event with the latest news – heavy metal band Megadeth, led by frontman, guitarist, and songwriter Dave Mustaine, will be performing live at the event.
According to a spokesperson for Affliction, Megadeth will be performing a key points during the event itself.
The platinum selling band has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide and will perform a special highlight performance. Known for their distinctive, in-your-face guitar solos, snarling vocal style and dark lyrical themes, Megadeth is sure to resonate with the “Affliction Banned” fan base and intensify the already action-packed event.
“Affliction Banned,” a mixed-martial-arts pay-per-view event in association with Roy Englebrecht Events, features former undisputed Pride heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko against former two-time UFC heavyweight titleholder Tim Sylvia.
A four-fight pay-per-view undercard includes Josh Barnett, facing off stateside for the first time in two years, in a grudge match against the only opponent to ever knock him out, Brazilian Pedro Rizzo.
Three-time All-American wrestler Mike Whitehead will battle Brazilian Renato “Babalu” Sobral. 2000 Olympic Wrestling Silver Medalist Matt Lindland faces Brazilian Fabio “Negao” Nascimento. Former International Fight League titlist Ben Rothwell is scheduled to fight Andre Arlovski.
Well thats a hell of cooler then the "nothing" UFC puts on and the "Busta Rhymes" that EXC gives us. Hopefully it doesn't take away from the MMA to much though, id rather see more fights from there undercard then Megadeth.
