Sengoku 7: James Thompson vs Jim York

James Thompson Pelted with Beer Cans

The resume of freak shows just gets deeper for heavyweight fighter James Thompson. This video shows Thompson getting pelted with beer cans for – get this – taking a fight to the ground.

This was at a new fight promotion called Strike Box in Montreal, Canada. The idea is MMA without the ground work. Unfortunately, the athletic commission wouldn’t agree to allow those rules to be in place in time for the fights so all the fighters agreed to fight under the Strike Box rules even though technically MMA rules were in place. Every fighter on the undercard followed the “agreed upon” rules until Thompson stepped into the cage against former hockey player and mixed martial artist Steve Bosse.

Thompson immediately went for the takedown and pounded away at Bosse. Folks around the cage started to flip out and the crowd began to throw beers into the ring. A chair was tossed in and the fight was stopped when Bosse threw a beer can at Thompson.
