lol how awful. The sad part is they will actually probably show this match on FSN because of Butterbean's US fame.

Butterbean beats people by submission? Is that by smell or him just laying on them?

I still want to see Tank and Butterbean, just because it's a guaranteed knockout in brutal fashion for someone. I hope that fight still happens.

I know about Butterbean's "roll" of late. I just hate these freakshow type matches. Minowa is only 185 lbs. It may be enterntaining, but most likely it will be an easy sub win for Minowa.

hahahahahaha

Yah, I got Minowa by quick sub also. Should be similar to the Sudo fight, without the flying kicks and knees and shit lol.

I hope that poor Minowa doesn't get caught in one of the folds of butterbean's stomach, that would be one hell of a submission hold.

I'd tap for sure.
