Kenny Florian vs. Gesias Cavalcante "booked" for Sunday's All Balls Brawl 1 by MMAjunkie.com Staff on Jul 18, 2011 at 4:55 pm ET An intriguing bout between UFC veteran Kenny Florian and Strikeforce fighter Gesias "JZ" Cavalcante is coming to a double-hexagon near you.
Well, sort of.
The two fighters are featured in a new promotional video for All Balls Brawl 1. The event series, which debuts Sunday, is an intriguing offshoot of MMA introduced by
colleghumor.com.
So why did Cavalcante, a veteran lightweight who competes for Strikeforce, want a fight against Florian, a UFC featherweight?
"When I was fighting in the cage, all I could think was how much I want to cut this [expletive] and kick my opponent right in the stupid balls," Cavalcante said. "That's how I joined the ABB."
For Florian, the all-nutshot promotion provides a release.
"In the ABB, I feel free," he said. "I get to experiment with all kinds of cutting-edge techniques. I can push my testicles to their limits."
The winner of Sunday's fight is expected to get a title shot with current ABB champion Cheick Kongo.
