Check out the insane collaboration between streaming camgirl site CamSoda and Thailand promotion Full Metal Dojo in what may be the freakiest freakshow event we’ve ever seen.

For most average fans of mixed martial arts, this weekend was all about the UFC fights on ESPN featuring Frankie Edgar’s drop to bantamweight, and maybe the Bellator event on Friday featuring ‘greatest light heavyweight in the world’ (womp) Ryan Bader. But for all the hardcore kiddies on Twitter, there was another event building up some hype: Fight Circus, brought to you by live webcam porn streaming company CamSoda.

This isn’t CamSoda’s first venture in the MMA realm. In 2018 they held CamSoda Legends featuring Ricco Rodriguez and the artist formerly known as “Crazy Horse” Charles Bennett. It was pretty freakshow. But this time they’ve gone full freakshow squared times a million, teaming up with Full Metal Dojo promoter Jon Nutt in Thailand. And we know ‘freakshow’ gets thrown around a lot in MMA, but we can confirm this is the freakshow to end all freakshows (until Fight Circus 2, at least).

Take a look at the promo:

They really mixed the martial arts for this one with openweight bouts, pro vs. two joes, lethwei rules, bareknuckle MMA, hybrid boxing / muay thai / mma, and even a surprise woman vs. man grappling match cuz why not?

First, what undoubtedly drew you to this post: the two on one fights between “Bank & No Money” and Mikhail Vetrila.

Because Fight Circus is Fight Circus, Nutt decided the 2 on 1 fight deserved an immediate rematch. As in, immediately. Here we go again!

There was a fight where round 1 was boxing rules, round 2 was muay Thai rules, and round 3 was MMA rules.

It didn’t make it past the start of the second where one of the combatants realized he doesn’t enjoy getting kicked in the face.

Then there was the surprise woman vs. man grappling match, which ended with the man getting tapped via rear naked choke.

Here’s a Kyokushin vs Muay Thai bout which was actually kind of badass.

And here’s the bareknuckle lethwei fight between Po Chissakan and Nattarat Prempida that went pretty sideways.

Our favorite part of the main event between Steven Banks and Sam Cassidy:

Fight Circus winners get a sword (or in one case, a golden axe). Losers get a bong, which seems like a not great thing to be given in a country with seriously strict marijuana laws.

We’d love to give you the official results but alas they aren’t available yet, and I found it pretty impossible to even match some of the fights up to the right rulesets and names of participants. As you can tell, Fight Circus is more about the spectacle than the particular athletes involved, but here’s the official lineup as it was presented before the show. We’ll update whenever Full Metal Dojo decides the results are important:

Steven Banks vs. Sam Cassidy (HW Muay Thai)
Daniel Dorrer vs. Hidetaka Arato (Openweight MMA)
Bank & No Money vs. Mikhail Vetrila (2 vs. 1 Muay Thai)
Fabiano Hawthorne vs. Kyoken (Bare Knuckle Muay Thai w/ Headbutts)
Chitnuphong Sommuttiram vs. Tang Mo (Openweight Boxing)
Po Chissakan vs. Nattarat Prempida (Bareknuckle MMA w/ Headbutts)
Two Buddies vs. A Pro (2 vs. 1 Muay Thai)
Ali Mohammed vs. Ryan Donnelly (Openweight MMA)
