Hey everybody, I’m Dale Saw (77197) owner of the Ultimate Pit Fighting. And, I am going to be reviewing UPF Wednesday Night Fights 3. It was a great night of fights, and we have Jamie McKenna (26734) to thank for that. He is the official matchmaker of the UPF. And none of those fighters would have been here tonight if not for the recruiting skills of Nick James (104699). So, thanks guys for a wonderful job. Now back to UPF Wednesday Night Fights 3, which took place at Hard Knocks Arena in Hilo, HI on Wednesday July 29th 2015. 2,638 people showed up for this mash up, although I heard a rumor that something like 1500 or more tickets were given away free. 9 of the scheduled 10 fights took place. Franco Murphy Johnson had a terrible time trying to make weight and after much deliberation, his fight with Jan Zagloba Herbu Wczele was cancelled. The event had a pretty low event rating at 66.00, but that was probably due to the NC. But anyways here is what you came here for.





NO CONTEST





Bantamweight Bout - Jan "Onufry" Zagloba Herbu Wczele (275764) 4-0-0 vs. Franco Murphy "The Titam" Johnson (269224) 3-5-0





Franco Murphy Johnson had a terrible time trying to make weight. After initially coming in at 141.0, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. Stepping on the scales for a second time, he still failed to make the required weight and after much deliberation, his fight with Jan Zagloba Herbu Wczele was cancelled.





UNDERCARD





Heavyweight Bout - Decca "The Machine" Heggie (260241) 0-1-0 vs. Makonnen Amore (261371) [The Devil’s Rejects] 0-0-0





The first fight of the night was a battle as Amore come out strong and was the more aggressive fighter throughout the fight. But, Spizz Energi’s (98102) fighter, Decca, The Ukrainian, showed us that he has some power in his fists and scored a knockdown in the first and the third rounds before getting the TKO victory late in the third over the Los Angeles national Makonnen. But, Amore, fighting under the management of Big Boss (7386), dominated the first round despite the fact that he was knocked down according to the ringside announcer. Amore went on to win the second round as well but in the end his chin just was not strong enough.





Winner - Decca "The Machine" Heggie (260241) 1-1-0- 4:22 of round 3 - TKO (Strikes) - 95% Rating





Light-Heavyweight Bout - Danny "Dat G" Richerdson (276609) 0-1-0 vs. Phil High (267836) [The Cage Cartel] 1-0-0





The second fight of the night saw a 20yr old, High, go up against an elderly fighter in terms of the UPF, the 25yr old, Richerdson. Born and raised in Denver, CO. managed by Sean McDonnel (25903), Phil absolutely destroyed his opponent; the Las Vegas native Danny Richerdson. High landed almost all of the shots he threw while not allowing Danny to land anything at all. Trey Werner (105499) was so upset by the performance of his fighter Richerdson that he actually released him from his contract. So, Danny “Dat G” Richerdson now sits on the free agent list.





Winner - Phil High (267836) [The Cage Cartel] 2-0-0 - 1:48 of round 1 - TKO (Strikes) - 49% Rating





Light-Heavyweight Bout - Nial Hardie (267501) 1-2-0 vs. Sprint "Flash" Asap (267148)  [House of Torment] 0-0-0





The final fight on the undercard was a short one. Leslie Smith (102061) watched as their fighter Hardie decided, even though they were the more experienced and older fighter, to take  it into the clinch. Hardie being 20 while his opponent, Asap, is only 18. But, once in the clinch “Flash,” from Los Angeles fighting under the management of A$AP Man (99811) , took over and destroyed the man from Dundee, Scotland.





Winner - Sprint "Flash" Asap (267148) 1-0-0 - 1:22 of round 1 - TKO (Strikes) - 62% Rating





MAINCARD





Featherweight Bout - Max Barathian (274861) [LEGION OF DOOM] 1-0-0 vs. Clearence Clearwater (275251) [LEGION OF DOOM] 1-1-0





The first fight on the main card was against two fighters from the same alliance LEGION OF DOOM. Gustav Nyquist (104115) and sir alex Skylight (87681) watched as their fighters Max and Clearence had one of the quickest fights of the night. The Zurich born Barathian showed tremendous strength as he landed only two shots. First a combo then Barathian closes the distance and lands a vicious right hand that drops Clearwater, the 22yr old from Melbourne, Yemen.





Winner - Max Barathian (274861) 2-0-0 - 0:32 of round 1 - TKO (Strikes) - 100% Rating





Super-Heavyweight Bout - Bazooka Joe (275100) [Super Smash Bros] 1-0-0 vs. Joseph "Erap" Estrada (276294) 1-0-0





Another quick match, the fifth fight of the night was. Huey Freeman (87103) watched his fighter Joe, an 18yr old from the Bronx, NY take on another 18yr old in the Pilipino Estrada. Manny Pacquiao (105428) should have taught his fighter Joseph Estrada a little of his boxing skills to avoid the horrible display he put on against Bakooza Joe. Joe didn’t miss a single shot, in both the stand up and in the clinch.





Winner - Bazooka Joe (275100) [Super Smash Bros] 2-0-0 - 0:47 of round 1 - TKO (Strikes) - 100% Rating





Super-Heavyweight Bout - Mario "Blacha Pruszynska" Podzianowski (276003) [Tycoon Alliance] 2-1-0 vs. Abdul "The Destroyer" Karim (275888) [Tycoon Alliance] 2-1-0





Fight three of the main card, had another two fighters from the same alliance, Tycoon Alliance. The Polish Podzianowski is 25yr old and fights for Swebs Swebster (105435). His opponent was an american born in New York, NY. Aaron Work (105409) his manager watched in disbelief as Podzianowski smashed 3 big shots into Karim’s face. The first cut him, second knocked him down and the final one got the KO and KO of the Night honors.





Winner -  Mario "Blacha Pruszynska" Podzianowski (276003) [Tycoon Alliance] 3-1-0 - 0:22 of round 1 - KO (Punch) - 100% Rating - KO of the night





Heavyweight Bout - Lil Kuntry (273990) 0-1-0 vs. Lester Hudson (276112) 2-0-0





Wednesday’s final main card fight a 24yr old and a 25yr old go at it. The Dallas, TX born Kuntry had is orders from Gary Chesterfield (104950) that night and I’m not sure what he was thinking! He got the takedown, where the 24yr old Philly born Hudson, had a huge disadvantage, but then stood up. What? Chesterfield handed this one to Louey DeLuca (105465).





Winner - Lester Hudson (276112) 3-0-0 - 0:48 of round 1 - TKO (Punches) - 100% Rating





Co-Main Event





Heavyweight Bout - Bryan "BK" Kennedy (264982) 6-3-0 vs. Dakota Fleming (276027) [LEGION OF DOOM] 1-0-0





The co-main event was pretty much one sided. The 22yr old Aussie, Kennedy had his hands full with Rico Rico’s (105334) fighter Dakota Fleming. Fleming, a 25yr old from Las Vegas had his way with Kennedy. Scoring takedowns whenever he wanted and then spammed the sub attempts until one was successful. Putri Rembulan (102821) will get the loss along with his fighter Bryan. Fleming gets the Sub of the night privileges, although it was the only submission on the card.





Winner - Dakota Fleming (276027) 2-0-0 - 2:19 of round 2 - Submission (Guillotine) - 31% Rating - Sub of the night





MAIN EVENT





Super-Heavyweight Bout - Matias "The Cat" Salminen (270866) [LEGION OF DOOM] 7-1-0 vs. "The American" Jack Jackson (276219) [Dab Legends] 0-0-0





The moment you have all been waiting for, the main event of the night. This was a very interesting fight indeed. Keyser Soze’s (104020) fighter hailing from Espoo, Finland scored a quick counter takedown against the Houston, TX native Jack Jackson. Dale Saw (77197), me, I was shocked to see Matian score the takedown and even more shocked when he made Jackson tap after only 12 seconds. But, Then I guess the fighters weren’t finished despite the tap. And, they continued to brawl and Jackson scored a KO. So, I thought they were going to go for the rubber match right then as well, I mean might as well they just fought two fights. But NO… They just went home.





Winner - Matias "The Cat" Salminen (270866) [LEGION OF DOOM] 8-2-0 - 0:12 of round 1 - Submission (RNC) and "The American" Jack Jackson (276219) [Dab Legends] 1-1-0 - 1:59 of round 1 - KO (Punches) - 100% Rating - Fight of the night
