One FC Fight Card

ONE Fighting Championship have officially announced the line up for September, thus completing the partial card I gave out a few days ago. PRIDE color commentator Bas Rutten,
will be heading back to the booth and will be calling the action on
this fight card that now includes a few more popular names. Here's a
complete rundown of the fights.

Main Card:
155 lbs - Eduard Folayang (Philippines) vs. Ole Laursen (Denmark / Philippines):

170 lbs - Yoshiyuki Yoshida (Japan) vs. Phil Baroni (USA):

145 lbs - Mitch Chilson (Singapore/USA) vs. Eric Kelly (Philippines):

170 lbs - Gregor Gracie (Brazil) vs. Wang Sai (China):

155 lbs - Andy Wang (China) vs. Zorobabel Moreira (Brazil / Singapore):

Modified Rules:
As for the rule-set to be implemented, the plan is to host a slight mix of PRIDE and UFC (Unified) rules.
The 3 points rule, where a fighter can't knee the head of an
opponent who has at least one hand touching the floor, is out, meaning
knees from any position are allowed, as long as it isn't on the back of
the head. This also means that upkicks, like the one Anderson Silva
used to KO Yushin Okami before, are legal.
The plan is for fights to be held in a cage, with full PRIDE rules
and elbows on the ground. This means soccer kicks and stomps are also
to be allowed.

I can't believe we aren't talking about The GOAT Andy Wang and his big fight.

lol the line up of nothing but champions.

That alone makes it worth tuning in. Soccer kicks and knees to grounded opponents? Yeah, I'll watch.
