FanHouse March Badness

Former WWE heavyweight champion Bobby Lashley will face MMA veteran Bob Sapp on June 27 at the Mississippi Gulf Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Miss.

FanHouse has learned that MMA rookie officially signed his bout agreement late last night.

Two weeks ago, Jeff Monson and Roy Nelson were fighting each other in Florida at the March Badness show. This weekend in Japan, Monson was fighting again -- and he had Nelson in his corner.

Appearing in the main event of the March Badness show he promoted, Roy Jones Jr. defeated Omar Sheika Saturday night in his hometown of Pensacola, Florida.

Jones was clearly faster and more skilled than Sheika, and after the first round it was obvious that Sheika didn't belong in the same ring with Jones. The hand speed that made Jones the best boxer in the world in the 1990s might have diminished somewhat, but it's still far beyond anything Sheika could handle. Jones never knocked Sheika down, but he so out-classed him that in the fifth round, the ref had seen enough and called a halt to the fight.

Former IFL heavyweight champion Roy Nelson lost a hard-fought unanimous decision to former UFC No. 1 contender Jeff Monson Saturday night at the March Badness event in Florida.

The former WWE star Bobby Lashley defeated the MMA journeyman Jason Guida Saturday night at the March Badness MMA and boxing show in Florida, looking unimpressive in winning a unanimous decision.

The theme of the fight was that Lashley was bigger and stronger than Guida but unable to do any real damage to him. Lashley, who improved his record to 2-0, has a long, long way to go before he's a complete mixed martial artist.

Mixed martial artist Din Thomas knocked someone out on Saturday night in Pensacola, Florida. And after he KO'd Gabe Lemley in the ring at March Badness, he offered to knock out someone else: Chris Brown.

Thomas, a former Ultimate Fighting Championship competitor, used a brutal knee to the face to knock out Lemley at the March Badness MMA and boxing event. Then, in the ring, he grabbed the microphone and told the crowd and the pay-per-view audience watching at home that he'd love to do the same to Brown.

Lashley weighed in at 251.5 pounds, while Guida weighed in at 232. Of course, Lashley looks like a bodybuilder while Guida looks like a couch potato, so Lashley probably has about 50 pounds of muscle mass on Guida.
