Author:War Pig

 Primal hits the Hard Knocks on Saturday night with one of the largest events to date, boasting two title fights and an array of up and coming fighters, the stage is set for a record breaking event.


 
Main Event


Greg Winklejax vs Trzy Trzy
 
The main event of the night pits two world class 280k middleweights against each other in a collossal title fight. Winklejax is one of the most exciting and popular fighters to ever set foot inside the Primal cage, however the highly impressive Trzy will be looking to cement his place at the top of the heap and prove his mettle in a fiery showdown between two natural finishers.
 
Winklejax comes into the fight riding on a wave of knockout finishes and a perception of invincibility. Winklejax is a very accurate and aggressive boxer who uses his height and strength to put pressure on in the clinch and land dirty boxing shots, it is no doubt going to be his gameplan again coming into this fight, the only question is whether he can do it against a wrestler as good as Trzy.

Highland Island 19


12th March
Hard Knocks (3,000)

 

Highland Island returns to Hard Knocks to give the Island fans a cracker of a show. Headlining is 205 champion Skip Gordon looking to defend his title for the 2nd time against all rounder Alonzo Harris. The card is dominated by fights happening in the 205 division, so I can guess that the next challenger to the LHW title is fighting on the card.

 

Skip Gordon vs. Alonzo Harris – 205lbs TITLE FIGHT

 

Gordon is looking to cement his claim as one of the best Island fighters. Standing in his way is Alonzo Harris who has shown a well versed MMA game.

 

Gordon’s tactic is simple yet effective, he doesn’t waste time in rushing for the clinch where he controls with his strength and batters people with elbows and punches. Undef

Skull Island 2 - 11/3/2016 @ Hard Knocks - The Island 

Island FC's next event looks like it'll be a good one!  There are nine fights lined up with the Main Event being contested for the Welterweight Championship!  

  #1 (145 lbs) - Lockhold  (0-0-0) vs. Straken  (1-0-0)

In the first undercard bout of the evening, we have

Ruke Lockhold taking on Alpha Straken is going to look to use his Muay Thai and his Wrestling while Straken will be looking to stand and trade.  Lockholdin the 185 lbs division. Straken has a slight height advantage and has the advantage of not needing to cut as much weight as his opponent.   

The untested
Lockhold would do well to get Straken in the clinch, but Straken has some good wrestling skills as well, so clinching will be dangerous. 

Getting Straken to the ground will also prove to be a challenge, as Straken managed to avoid 14 takedowns in his first fight.  Straken went the distance in that bout, but absolutely brutalized his opponent.
