FADE TO:

BLACK. Operatic music begins to play.



FADE IN:

INT. COLISEUM TUNNEL.

CLOSE ON: A gladiator helmet sits in the dirt. It is covered in blood and muck. A hand reaches down and takes it. The camera follows the helmet as it's lifted from the sand. A warrior, scarred and full of fire, places the helmet on before his face can be seen. He begins to walk forward, down a lighted tunnel, until:

CUT TO:

INT. SOUNDSTAGE.

CLOSE ON: Jackson, black and white, looks into the camera.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]JACKSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]My goal? Same as it always is: to dominate.[/div]

CUT TO:

JACKSON sinking in the rear naked choke that ended his fight with THOMPSON.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]BELANE[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]It's the same goal every night. Survive. Seriously though, if you ask my hipster jerk of a manager, he'll tell you that it's all about the win. All about the money. All about...all of his silver tongued shit. Me though? My goal is to fight until one of us ends up knocked out on the ground. Nothing more, nothing less.[/div]

CUT TO:

BELANE is dropping hammer fists in slow motion on an unconscious BUGS KENNEDY.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]JACKSON(O.S.)[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]I expect fancy bullshit. I expect flash and flourish and nothing else to go with that pretty face of his. You think he looks like a fighter? Nah. That guy belongs on a Calvin Klein billboard. Not in MY cage.[/div]

CUT TO:

INT. SOUNDSTAGE.

BELANE stares hard into the camera.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]BELANE[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]This is the biggest fight I've seen yet at UNLEASHED. I went from facing a caricature with a glass chin to facing arguably the best fighter here. Jackson's going to want to go and I expect nothing less than the fight of my life. Similarly, the fight of the night.[/div]

CUT TO:

Highlights from UNLEASHED 1 roll over Metallica's SPIT OUT THE BONE.

CUT TO:

EXT: SAINT PETERSBURG SKYLINE. NIGHT.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA (O.S.)[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]This is UNLEASHED 3! JACKSON vs. BELANE! Coming to you LIVE from Belgrade, Serbia, available around the world on Battleground Network and Amazon Prime Video. Tonight's fights are brought to by Hardwired to Self Destruct, the new album by iconic band Metallica. Available now.[/div]

CUT TO:

INT: CAGESIDE

CLOSE ON: John Cardona and Freddie Larsson stand with the cage behind them.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Jove Belane rocketed himself from relative nobody to the name on everyone's mind when he knocked Bugs Kennedy out in thirty one seconds. However, does he have what it takes to go toe to toe with the a veteran like Jackson?[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]We know what Jackson will bring to the table. Power. Aggression. Submission. These are the keys to his victory. How does Belane counter that? We know he has one-punch knockout power because was saw it when Bugs Kennedy ate the mat. But does he possess the chin to take one of Jax's right bombs?[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Another question when it comes to Belane is his gas tank. We've never seen him go beyond thirty seconds, let alone five rounds.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]It's no secret that Jackson at 46 years of age doesn't have the endurance he possessed earlier in his career. That's a lot of years on those bones. [/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]But he did go 14 minutes in one round against Thompson.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]He did, and ultimately he won. I just don't know how many more of these long fights the Legend has in him. I believe his best chance to win tonight against a younger Jove Belane is to come out swinging.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Also on the card is our co-main event. Former champion Lara Chambers will take on Ethan Thompson.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]A lot of eyes are on Jackson and Belane, but I am really looking forward to this fight. Chambers wants everyone in the world to know that she deserves another shot at the UNLEASHED championship before anyone else. She needs an impressive win over a hungry Ethan Thompson to make that case.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]EMT now has two losses on his record and he is looking to turn that around. What does a win here tonight do for him going forward?[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]If EMT beats Chambers, it automatically pushes him right back to the top of the rankings. If he knocks Chambers out or makes her tap out, he will have a clear path toward a title shot in the near future.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Also on the card, number fifth ranked fighter Fizz Raab will take on Ed Terryn, and Voron will go head to head with newcomer Thirteen. But first, "Miss Murder" Erica Alvarez will take on Zag Winston.[/div]

Alvarez misses a leaping knee to start and ends up on the receiving end of a hard jab as Winston walks forward. He kicks the legs. Alvarez changing levels, moving up and down. Winston in the center. He catches a leg and drives Alvarez to the cage. Alvarez quickly switches outside, but Winston pushes her away. Alvarez moving on the outside, but both seem a little hesitant to open up.

As they break, Winston scores a left hand and then kicks the leg, staggering Alvarez as she tries to dodge back. They briefly open up and trade before Alvarez moves inside and charges into the fence. Knees traded. Alvarez can't get the takedown and the round ends with them upright.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Alvarez with some surprising poise again the bigger opponent.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]We knew a decent amount about Winston before this fight because he is attached to Harvey Lowman who loves to hype his fighters, but Alvarez came in with little fanfare.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]She's sounding the trumpets herself.[/div]


Quicker pace to start, but they're back into the clinch straight off. They trade shots in close quarters, and both rack up some points. As they pull away, it's Winston moving forward first. Alvarez pops out a jab, but they're back to working in tight. They jockey for position against the cage, turning off the fence, before restarting in the center. Winston doesn't give up, coming forward again only to miss a big right. Winston kicks the leg but she shakes it off, circling on the outside only to use the same strategy. She kicks the legs and just barely slips a Winston counter. Less than a minute to go and Winston flurries at the bell. The judges score it for Winston, 10-9.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Winston seems to be hitting his pace, but neither fighter has made a dominate move to end this fight.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]They seem like they're trying to feel each other still. First fight nerves?[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]I wouldn't be surprised, John. Becoming an UNLEASHED fighter is a dream that turns into a nightmare the first time that cage door shuts and you're stuck inside.[/div]


Winston comes in faster than before, as if he's been holding back and fires an uppercut. He kicks the legs and Alvarez looks for a desperate takedown only to get stuffed. Winston with a right hand before they trade leg kicks. Winston again in the center, and he blocks another takedown. Alvarez with a few knees up the middle but they're not doing much damage before Winston pulls away. Into another clinch and this time Alvarez looks for a trip that's just not there. Winston pushes Alvarez to the fence. Alvarez latches on to the neck and falls to her back as Winston looks for a takedown. She locks the legs around him and starts peppering him with strikes, keeping him immobile before the stall forces a break. Winston seems fine once they're back up and Alvarez goes for another takedown. She shoots in, but Winston sidesteps. He throws a downward right fist that catches Miss Murder as she stands. The power spins her and she lands face up on the mat. Winston walks away and the referee signals the end of the fight.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]IT IS ALL OVER![/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Big KO there with only a minute left in the round. Zig Zag lived up to his nickname with that takedown dodge and made Alvarez pay for it.[/div]

WINSTON WINS via KNOCKOUT at 03:58 of the THIRD ROUND.

(http://unleashed.pw/img/U3/voron.thirteen.jpg)


Thirteen takes the center as Voron fires in a few hard strikes like he's trying to feel her out, using his range to keep his opponent at bay. Thirteen nails a few hard hooks when they're in tight and then there's a brief stall after a clash of heads and Thirteen looking as though she took an eye poke. Her left eye looks bad. On the restart, Voron slips to the floor, and Thirteen quickly pounces and tries to take his back. Voron rolls but Thirteen turns and goes for a guillotine choke.

Voron tries his best to escape guard and alleviate pressure. He can't, but he does get his head free and now Thirteen is bleeding from that left eye! They scramble for position. Voron gets on top, and now he's looking for the guillotine. Thirteen in a bad spot, but she's battling through. Half-guard underneath for Thirteen as she tries to sneak her head back inside. Finally, Voron does have to adjust and as Thirteen rolls Voron stays tight on the neck and works in a choke from the top. Thirteen's struggling to get free, but Voron has control of the neck and looks like he wants to finish the fight early. He can't get the angle, so he lets go. He turns for a strike but Thirteen catches his arm and drags him down, peppering him with elbows and punches a bit before the bell.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Thirteen showed a ton of heart getting out of that guillotine choke.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Not only that, but she might have stole the round from the Blackbird with that impressive takedown and flurry at the end.[/div]


Voron with more kicks to open. Thirteen quickly closes distance with punches. Voron wants an arm drag but winds up giving Thirteen his back. Voron quickly corrects that mistake and crawls to his feet, but Thirteen scrambles with him and goes for the neck. Great grappling exchanges showcase Thirteen's wrestling background before Voron wraps the body and tosses Thirteen to the floor, taking top position. Thirteen moves to guard, shifts and attacks the arm. It's briefly tight, but Voron pulls free and slips around to the back, nearly catching the choke before Thirteen avoids. Voron is still on the back and Thirteen drives a few punches to the head, but she's in a bad spot.

Voron tries again for the rear-naked choke, but Thirteen keeps her chin tucked, turning but she just can't get free. Voron continues to adjust, getting the legs tight around the body, but he can't finish the choke. He's switching arms as Thirteen pleases the crowd with punches behind her head. Less than a minute, and Thirteen does stand, but Voron pushes her right back to the canvas. Round ends with Voron moving to the back.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]I'm surprised Voron is going for these chokes.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]It's not his strong suit, but he's making it work, John. It's hard to argue when he controlled the round that well.[/div]


Thirteen needs to make something happen. She comes out aggressive, but Voron's quick inside and drives her down to the canvas with a stunning punch combination. Thirteen keeps firing elbows from her back and then she scrambles for an omoplata but can't get it. She does get back to her feet and now she looks to be bleeding a bit from her right eye. Crowd cheering loudly for Thirteen, but Voron scores a slick takedown. Thirteen won't stay grounded, and as they crawl back up, she latches onto a guillotine and falls to the ground for the finish.

Voron battles through it and eventually breaks the pressure only to counter into an arm-triangle choke. He gets to the side, and it's in deep, but Thirteen absolutely refuses to tap. Thirteen stands, but Voron drives her back to the floor and they scramble for position, Thirteen looking for an armbar before getting reversed into another arm-triangle. She's against the fence and Voron can't quite torque it. There's not much time left so he just stalls until the bell.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And it goes the distance![/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Another close round, but I think it went to Voron.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]The crowd is definitely happy with both of these fighters.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Both were active throughout and made a serious case to these judges. I wouldn't want to be the one scoring this fight. I think the second was definitely Blackbird. Thirteen probably took the first round right at the end. I think it all comes down to the third round.[/div]
 
VORON WINS via UNANIMOUS DECISION (29-28, 29-28, 29-28).
[/div]

[div class="ppv"]
(http://unleashed.pw/img/U3/raab.terryn.jpg)


Raab wastes no time in going after Terryn, looking for a right cross that is easily dodged, followed by a thrust kick that misses its mark and leaves her open for a shot to the face from Terryn. The pace seems in Terryn's favor as he's rocking Raab back, following up and getting two, three, four consecutive shots to Raab knocking her flat on her back. Terryn goes for the kill, but Raab is able to defend herself, covering up on the mount that Terryn made, blocking the majority of the shots coming in. Looking for a submission, Terryn grabs at Raab's arm, but eats an elbow for his troubles. Pulling her legs in, Raab is able to force Terryn off her with a thrust and gets to her feet. Looking to press her own advantage she goes in for that right cross again, just missing as Terryn weaves to the right and quickly brings his left foot up, catching Raab completely unaware and dropping her straight to the mat. Terryn goes for another mount but the fight is called off, knockout being awarded to Terryn.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And it's over![/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Ed Terryn put on a clinic, ladies and gentlemen.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And he has built on that strong debut at UNLEASHED 2 against Anton Voron.[/div]

TERRYN WINS via KNOCKOUT at 03:45 of the FIRST ROUND.

Chambers is fired up, coming out quickly with a kick to the legs and then up top. Thompson responds with the same deadly punches that have defined his Unleashed career. The pace is quick, back and forth trading of blows before they eventually settle in with Chambers returning to the leg attacks. Thompson favors the punches, forcing Chambers to switch up her striking game which ends with EMT holding down the center. Thompson moves into the clinch and gets a takedown but can't hold the position against the former champion in a scramble. Chambers comes up a little short on a high kick as Thompson spins off, deflecting. Chambers seems to be scoring better strikes but Thompson isn't afraid to trade. Chambers keeps chopping the legs, showboating a little for the benefit of the crowd. Her kicks are adding up and Thompson starts to wobble as he moves in for more strikes. Less than a minute left as Chambers turns up the heat, firing more swift kicks into Thompson's legs. The round ends with the referee seperating the fighters.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Chambers really is on target with those kicks.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]She is at a huge height and reach disadvantage. Those kicks are allowing her to control this fight.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Thompson will need to find away to get inside.[/div]


Thompson pushes forward but eats a jab. He switches stance, trying to keep Chambers from the return strikes but quickly shifts back. The left knee looks like it's in bad shape for Thompson and in an effort to hide that, he changes levels and scores a takedown. Chambers turns to her knees to escape, and Thompson happily takes the back. He moves both hooks into position. Chambers controlling the wrists in defends and then smoothly turns inside and takes top position. Thompson holds tight underneath as the official calls for a break. On the reset, Thompson immediately dives forward and clips the legs, scoring another takedown only to eat an elbow to the temple that sends him sprawling back. Chambers peppers him with punches to the body and now Thompson is trying to turn and get to his feet. He eventually turns to his knees but he's being controlled on the back by Chambers. When he tries to roll, Chambers briefly has mount and she peppers him again with some hard strikes . Thompson turns again and actually makes it to his feet at the end of the round.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Thompson needs to listen to his corner. They are screaming at him to check those kicks.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]His left knee is swollen and he has a bit of a limp it looks like.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Going for that takedown was smart, but Chambers schooled him on the ground. He had both hooks in. That should have been goodnight for Chambers.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]But she showed why she was the first UNLEASHED champion. That heart to fight till the last breath.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And now she has a two round lead, no doubt. Thompson needs to make something happen.[/div]


Thompson shoots in quickly, but Chambers sprawls. Still, Thompson persists to take the fight to the ground, looking to avoid more damage from those leg kicks. Stalemate, so there's a quick restart. Thompson goes quickly again for the takedown, and this time he drives through the legs and scores. Thompson works again from his opponent's guard. He's heavy on top. Chambers turns to her knees, and Thompson happily takes the back. Chambers can't stay here, and after being stuck a bit, she explodes out to create some space. She tries to stand but Thompson drives her on the mat. She has her arms around his neck, trying for a guillotine as she lands on her back—Denied! One minute remains! Chambers desperately wants to get to her feet, but Thompson is staying heavy on top. She tries to hip escape...she scoots out from under Thompson! Both fighters scramble, rolling around on the mat...Thompson's left knee gives out and he goes flat on the mat. Chambers takes his back! He rolls before she can get a choke in and now the Lady of Chambers is on top in full mount! Hammer fists rain down on EMT's face! He tries to fend her off, but the bell rings and the judge has to push Chambers off him. She begins to strut around the ring with her arms raised. EMT sits up, blood running from his nose, his face full of frustration and defeat.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]AND THERE IT IS![/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]What a great fight. Even though at times it seemed one-sided, Thompson still took the former champion to the distance.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]So you think Chambers did enough to score this victory?[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Oh, no doubt. EMT might have gotten that last round, but Chambers ended this fight in dominate position, raining down blows on her opponent's face. And she completely controlled the first and second rounds.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]With the decision, here is Fred Hayes.[/div]

CHAMBERS WINS via UNANIMOUS DECISION (30-27, 30-27, 29-28).

The lights dim. The sound of rushing wind comes over the speakers. On the screens around the arena, a storm is brewing above a windswept desert wasteland. A dark point appears far off in the distance, growing nearer.

A voice screams, "He's coming! The dark horse is coming!" over the sound of pounding hoof beats.

The dark horse charges across the desert, his nostrils flaring, foam dripping from his lips, a look of fierce determination in brown eyes that gleam reddish as the lightning courses across the sky. Suddenly the horse rears, letting out an enraged shriek that's drowned out by mocking laughter and Jackson's voice hurling insults before the music skips, and then the sounds of "Lies" by Evanescence filters through the speakers. Spotlights converge at the mouth of the tunnel and the unmistakable Jackson has emerged.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]One of the more imposing fighters of this or any era. The number one ranked contender for the UNLEASHED title has the strength to end any fight, no matter the opponent, with one punch. The Dark Horse. The Legend. Brad Jackson.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]What is interesting about this matchup is that he is fighting a guy in Jove Belane that has great standup, who might be willing to trade punches despite that one-punch knockout power you mentioned.[/div]

The screen crackles to life again, showing heavy static that gradually fades to grainy and over-saturated footage of Jackson utterly demolishing various opponents interspersed with him either lifting weights or screaming obscenities into a microphone. Jackson walks out slowly, methodically, his eyes locked on the cage.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]From a pure power perspective, he may be the most dangerous fighter in the game.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]The consequences of making a mistake when you're in the cage with Jackson are far more significant than they are with any other fighter. Any UNLEASHED fighter can knock you out, but Jackson can knock you out with things that graze you. Completely different situation.[/div]

He stops at cageside and removes his shoes, jeans, and shirt. He waits for the cutman to apply vaseline to his brow, cheeks, and nose. A referee then steps forward to inspect his gloves and trunks before clearing him to enter the cage. Jackson climbs the steps and walks through the door. He circles the cage as his music comes to a grinding halt, cut off with a squeal of feedback and then an eerie silence.



'Turbo Killer' by Carpenter Brut hits the PA system and drowns out the sound of the crowd. Just as quickly as it entered, it quiets down for a section of organ music before Jove Belane steps out of the tunnel. He's wearing a hooded sweatshirt and has his trainer right behind him. To his left is his representative, Harvey Lohman.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Making his way to the cage for his second professional fight. Jove Belane will look to build off his impressive knockout performance over Bugs Kennedy. A knockout that propelled him to the top of the UNLEASHED ranks.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And Belane will be able to walk into the cage with the confidence knowing he has that ability to finish a fight. Can he do that again tonight—that's the question everyone has been asking for the last five weeks. But make no mistake, Belane has other weapons in his disposal that the viewers have yet to witness.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]No doubt he will need every weapon in his arsenal to take out Jackson.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]It is a hard challenge for only his second fight, but Belane has the confidence and the desire to see this through.[/div]

The group heads down the long corridor towards the cage. Jove ignores the attention of the fans who reach out for him. Harvey grants them a wicked and somewhat insincere smile as he goes. Finally, they make their way cageside. Belane begins to remove his street clothes.

After being cleared by the officials, Belane rushes up the stairs and into the cage, then quickly jogs around the inner circle before stopping in his corner.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And here now with the introductions for this championship main event, the legendary Fred Hayes.[/div]

The house lights dim as the camera pans down to Showtime Hayes standing center cage under a spotlight. To the right, Jove Belane lightly bounces on feet, shaking his hands. To the left, Jackson paces back and forth, his sight locked on his opponent.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]HAYES[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is the MAIN EVENT. This contest is sanctioned by the Athletics Federation of Serbia. Our three judges scoring this contest at cageside are Desimir Lazic, Zivko Siljan, and Miljan Mandic, and when the action begins, our referee in charge, Adam Kovalyov.

...AND NOW...to the thousands here in attendance, and UNLEASHED fans around the world. LIVE from Belgrade, Serbia...

IT'S...
SHOWTIME![/div]

The entire arena lights up. Thousands of people are on their feet, going crazy, waving their arms and screaming. Colored lights spin and flash across their excited faces.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]HAYES[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Five rounds! Twenty minutes! For Eternal Glory! Introducing first...[/div]

Hayes whips to his left toward Jackson.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]HAYES[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]FIGHTING out of the Blue Corner!

The crowd pops. Jackson stops pacing and raises a single arm into the air. His eyes never leave the other fighter.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]HAYES[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]And now introducing his opponent...

FIGHTING out of the Red Corner![/div]

Hayes walks right over to Jove Belane. Calm and collected, Belane continues to bounce on his feet, keeping the blood moving, unphased by the introduction or the crowd.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]HAYES[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]He is a mixed martial artist, with a professional record of 1 win and no losses. Standing six feet two inches tall and weighing in at 205 lbs. Fighting out of San Pedro, California, USA...

Jove...BELANE![/div]

Belane gets a big reaction. Referee Kovalyov signals both fighters to meet in the center. The fighters stare at one another, eye to eye. The referee instructs them to obey his commands at all times and fight clean. Jackson and Belane touch gloves and then immediately back away.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]LARSSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]It's electric in this arena, John.[/div]

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]CARDONA[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Belane. Jackson. HERE...WE...GO![/div]

(http://unleashed.pw/img/rounds/cage.girls.round.1.jpg)

The excitement from the crowd is deafening as the two men meet in the center of the cage. Jackson feints a right then dives down for a sweeping single. Belane is ready. He sidesteps the takedown and catches Jackson with a straight right. The Legend eats the punch and stands. Belane locks Jackson in the clinch.

Both fighters use some dirty boxing, getting in quick, darting uppercuts and hooks. Belane is starting to get the better of the exchange. Jackson uses his strength advantage to push Belane back and break the clinch. But Belane is faster than the Legend—he immediately launches a flurry of hooks and body shots!

Jackson weathers the storm and locks Belane in the clinch. He pushes the American fighter backward into the cage. Jackson sends a knee up into Belane's ribs that connects. Belane winces from the pain. Jackson tries another knee, but it's blocked. He goes upstairs, throwing an elbow, but Belane ducks it, and uses the momentum to roll Jackson, trading places with him against the cage.

Belane throws two quick knees, both blocked, but then ducks down for a double leg takedown...He gets it! Jackson falls to his back with Belane in his guard.

[div class="ppv-speech-headline"]JACKSON[/div]
[div class="ppv-speech"]Yeah, maybe. Can't really predict that, chief. Ten more seconds for him to breathe, regroup. This isn't some scripted show. It's unpredictable. Yeah, I'd have pushed for the knockout. Of course. Anyone would've.[/div]
