AD144: Highway to Belle preview

Event Preview: AD144: Highway to Belle
Aggressive Damage
2013-07-24, Montreal, Belle Centre
Author:Cause McDubree


As your fine servants at Aggressive Damage put the final touches on the most critical Event in our org’s relatively illustrious history, the anticipation’s building like a kid with the latest Lego set. As the name alludes, this will be the lil’ guys first shot at the big show, at least here in Montreal, as the rabid Nation takes over the Belle Center with it’s 20k plus seating capacity. Befitting a card of such magnitude, we’ve called forth many of our most popular gladiators to pit their significant skills against one another, determining Titles, Title-shots and in the case of the undercard, who keeps climbing the ladder towards one.


The word from the official bookie, A Good Cause is that this was the most difficult Event to handicap since they started repping the org steadily back at AD40 or so. Not one combatant was seen as a clear enough favourite to bump his odds as high as 2-1 and there’s currently a total of three pick ‘ems plus a couple others that m

Henkka Reem Defends the UPF-title again, moves to 10-0-0

Fighter profile of Henkka Reem by Hank MoodyBlues

Henkka Reem Defends the UPF-title, moves to 10-0-0 with all submission wins.

Q: Henkka you succesfully defended the title again against a fellow grappler and you dominated.
Give us your thoughts on the victory.

Henkka: I knew that he had only his grappling game and no standup-skills, so I decided to punch his
face for a while, before I took him down and submitted him. Perhaps it was the few punches he ate and the cut, but
I was suprised how easily I got the kimura. I only tried a three submission, before he had to tap.

Q: This fight was done pretty fast after your last title-fight against Tony Brown. Did you have enough time
to train properly for this fight or how did you approach this fight ?

Henkka: Well, I didn't have much time to train for this fight, I just did a few sparring sessions and worked on physique.

Q: What's next for you ? I see your success has brought a few sponsors and hype.

Henkka: It has

Danny Mangold Interview

Fighter profile of Danny Mangold by Mentor Guru Corleone

Question #1: It took you a while to get your career started. Just 14 fights so far. Why did you wait so long before you got into the cage?

-I never was very athletically gifted when I was younger. I had wrestled in High School, but never thought I could make a career out of that sort of thing. After getting out of school, I took a few odd jobs here and there, but never considered mma as a career until I ran into an old friend, Van Kelly, and he got me into Jui-Jitsu and Boxing. A few months into training and everyone was telling me I could have a future in fighting, but I'm not really a very violent guy... (He laughs) Believe it or not, but I've never actually been in a fight outside of a cage before.
 
Anyways, by luck I met Mr. Wolfwood in Hilo and he began to sponsor my training. I took a fight here or there to make a living, and continued to train hard full time for years. It was only because of Mr. Wolfwoods urging that I started taking fighting m

Hannibal Interview

Fighter profile of Hannibal Die Rücksichtslos by

 Today in our studio we have Hannibal all the way from Africa! Hannibal has been one of the biggest talents in GAMMA to never hold the 205lbs title, despite beating both current 205lbs champion and his challenger. Lets get down with a few questions!

Question #1 You recently changed your long term manager Dee Hudge to Mike McSlaughter, any reason why?

Hannibal: I was wanting very much better manager who can help me with stategy and training, other guy only cared about money, not me. Mr Mike care. He feed me good and I only give him 80%.

Question #2 Your next opponent is Kalesh Nikov, a promising talent but with a poor record in GAMMA 1-4. How do you see the fight going?

Hannibal: Kalesh very much black belt and better ju jits so I must try to use my punch and put hole in his chest. Then I can eat heart Mr Mike says.

Question #3 You have had 2 title losses to Degen Gamble
