It will be a "no holds barred" competition were contestants are allowed to kick, punch and wrestle during their battles.
Are we talking about politics? Well sort of, if you're talking about the Eugene City Council and cage fighting.
No, we are not putting the Eugene City Council in a cage
Former counselor David Kelly last year brought the subject of cage fighting to the attention of Eugene City Council with the intention of banning the sport. However, instead of banning the sport, most counselors say regulating fights might reduce the risk of injury and keep the fights from moving to Springfield or other cities.
Two major things in the proposed ordinance is to require fighters to have blood tests and carry medical insurance for uninsured fighters as well as prohibiting people under the age of 18 from watching a cage fights.

If this is a sport, let it be regulated by officials in that field; if it is a safety issue, let the police deal with it.
