Bisping-Sonnen grappling exhibition ends in draw at 'UR Fight' PPV

Four years after their first fight, Michael Bisping finally got a rematch against Chael Sonnen on Sunday ... sort of.

Competing outside of the UFC for a PPV event in Phoenix created by URshow.tv, the two infamous MMA personalities engaged in a grappling exhibition match that did not include strikes, judges, or much action in general.

Sunday's event also features: a professional wrestling match between Kurt Angle and Rey Mysterio; a main event pitting little-known MMA fighter Vyron Phillips against former boxing world champion Roy Jones Jr. for a shot at a $100,000 prize; and a performance by Riff Raff.
