What that means for you is a whole lot of awesome flips, kicks, and aerial acrobatics that are straight out of a Stephen Chow film. Enjoy!

What essentially stayed a five-round stand-up fight between the two fighters contained a few highlights, however, it was difficult to shake the feeling that the match itself fell flat after watching the excitement of the other matches on the card.(br /)(br /)Check out the highlights in the video above.

What made this robot so interesting? How about that it can traverse stairs, walk on a treadmill, and even do push-ups. It's okay, we'll understand if you've stopped reading to cower under your desk...as if that would stop this nightmare.
