 If you thought SPFT was going to let off the pedal simply because we past our 100th birthday, you’re wrong, dead wrong. We at SPFT are more interested in stepping up our game, and bringing you even more amazing events each week. This week, with SPFT 101 is no exception. This week, we have a title fight, a hall of famer fighting, and El Guapo extends his record for most fights in SPFT history! It will be an exciting week of action, and let’s take a look at what we have in store.

When I wrote the preview for SPFT 98, I predicted that the fight between Kalash Nikov and Kimbo Nelson would be a war until the final bell. Little did I know how right I was. Both fighters went to war in the cage, fighting right up to the final bell, earning fight of the night honors, and a draw. This week, the two fighters enter the cage again to settle the score, maybe 3 more rounds will decide who ultimately is the better fighter of these two warriors.<

GAMMA Gossip Edition#10

Global Association of MMA, Fight Organization, London
Company profile by Mentor Guru Corleone

Hey there, welcome back for the latest GAMMA Gossip. I’m AC Jimbo, and we’re going to be bringing you all of the latest news and views on GAMMA. After the success of last week’s show we’re actually going to head more in that direction, so we’ll only guarantee to cover the main event of each show. The co-main event will get some airtime if, and only if, I deem it significant enough to warrant some discussion. We’re all about the stars on this show, so if you’re a manager and you’re unhappy that your fighter isn’t getting a look-in on the show – tell him to train harder and win more, and then he can headline a show and guarantee himself some exposure!

The corollary to this is that it should give us more time to provide the really interesting insights into our top names that you’ve been writing in to say that you enjoy. However, enough of telling you what we’re going to do – let’s get on and do it!

GAMMA 293 pitched Forest Gump against Vladik Fedotov. Here we saw the underdog, Fedotov, manage to hold off Gump to return to winning ways. I don’t know about you but I was quite disappointed in the performance level shown by Gump, who seemed lacklustre really. Perhaps that’s being a little unfair, though, because he was spilling a lot of blood as Fedotov got to work on spoiling his visage. Perhaps Fedotov really doesn’t like Gump’s purple hair so much t

International Team Fighting League

Author:Sean McDonnel

Welcome, fight fans! We’re live at the Hayashi’s Lounge, where the first event of the International Team Fighting League has just finished up. What an exciting night of fights we had for you tonight. Let’s take a quick look at the fight recaps.

Dragon Slayer (5-2-1) vs. I.P. Daily (7-6)

In the opening fight of our card, Dragon Slayer squared off against I.P. Daily. Both fighters came out looking to set the pace early in this one, as the first two minutes saw both fighters taking turn as the aggressor. The longer the round went on, the more Dragon Slayer started chopping away at Daily’s defenses using brutalizing leg kicks to soften him up. Late in the first round Slayer took his opponent to the clinch and was able to hold him there for the rest of the round. Daily came out fairly aggressive to start the 2nd round probably knowing he needed to do something to change how the fight was going, but Slayer was just too much for him. After a devastating body kick, Daily got himself into a bit of a bad position with poor footwork and ate a nasty uppercut for his troubles, which seemed to really have hurt him. Slayer smelt blood in the water and it didn’t take him long to land another devastating uppercut that sent Daily crashing to the mat, where he was quickly followed by Dragon Slayer before the ref stepped in and saved him.

Slayer def. Daily by 2nd round TKO

 BFT - 190 - Bondi Beach Brawl 2

This spectacular event took place Sunday night, March 17, 2013. The crowd was sold out at 5750 with a BFT high event rating of 305.69. It was an insane night and the main card started with a bang. 
 
Light Heavyweight - Titus "Tko" Kahoohalphala Knocked out "The Namibian Nightmare" Mukassa Jones with Strikes at 4:55 in round 3. 
 
Right away, Jones shoots in for a takedown and landed in half guard. The two roll around for a while, and it gets a little difficult to determine who is really in control of the situation. There were really two keys to the round. While Jones was on top, he was throwing down all the submissions he could. And at the end of the round, for the last minute or so, Kahoohalphala was throwing the ground and pound from the top. It was certainly a rough round to score. The second round started and Kahoohalphala got the takedown right away and they started rolling around some more. Titus seemed to get

First Preliminary Fight (Middleweight Bout 185)

Tyler Dewd (2-2-0) VS "Ready" Justin Case (1-1-0)

We start the night with two well rounded fighters who come to fight, win or lose. Both fighters are powerful fighters, and this is predicted to end in a knockout. Dewd is always ready to brawl it out, and nobody can forget how Jusin Case left his last opponent unconscious with that devastating slam. This should be a great fight to start out the night.

Hello and Welcome Back Fight Fans!!! Hurricanes, Earthquakes and Tornadoes SIT DOWN and take notes! Tonight is Tapout or Passout's Natural Disaster and it will be of near apocalyptic destruction! We have a STACKED card tonight with the Welterweight Title on the line!

"Fast" Reggie Anderson vs Cup "of" Tea

"Fast" Reggie enters the Octagon with a 1-1 record so far in Tapout or Passout. After a convincing victory in his ToP debut, followed up by a close loss by decision to perennial contender Kenny McCormick. Reggie has his sights on making a serious statement here tonight. Tea is bringing a bucket full of pain to pour out tonight! This is his ToP debut as he brings his 10-5 professional record to the cage tonight. Tea is known for an seriously elite and well-rounded skill set! The Bell Rings!!! Anderson comes out swinging and Tea looks to be feeling out the pace so far. Both fighters are trading fisticuffs when Anderson sinks a hard leg kick, and then another! Anderson locks and loads and drives home a takedown into half guard! Anderson is trying to stay active and Tea is countering and controlling effectively. In the second, the menu staye
