                   Infinity Lightweight Title Tournament Semi Finals   "Preview"

   

                                                       

"What a fun opening round we had, all four of the Quarter Final Matchups ended with Finishes. Hopefully the fans can enjoy the same outcome in the Semi's. Unfortunately Tony Sassano Jr. was pulled from the competition because of a nasty Vaginal desease, just kiddin Jr. The four men left are Hungry for a shot at the Title in the finals, so lets take a peak at the two matchups.

 

     5.  Clint Cartwright (8-3-0)   vs   6.  Micah Hays (8-3-0)

 

 

Kicking off the Semi's is two guys who where not playing around in the opening round Submission ace Clint Cartwright vs vicious striker Micah Hays. Cartwright beat Edu Fola by submission in the first round of there bout. The win was Clint's 5th Submission victory, as he looks to utilize his submission skills further in the tournament. " PFC" Micah Hays took out the #3 seed Chuck Nogueira in somewhat of a upset with a perfectly timed Head Kick KO. Hays opened quite a few eyes with his performance and he will look to keep Cartwright standing in this one, this fight is gonna be fun cant wait.

 

        1.  Brady Barnes (16-4-0)   vs   (Replacement) Chico Sanchez (8-4-0)

 

In the second bout the #1 seed Brady Barnes will take to the Infinity cage as he faces a replacement fighter in Chico Sanchez.  Brady "Big Fist" Barnes made quick work of John Taslim in his opening round matchup, eventually taking him down and and forcing Taslim to tap due to strikes. Brady a very established striker is also a threat on the ground as well so you cant sleep on him anywhere. Chico Sanchez is looking forward to pulling a upset here but he will need to watch out for Barnes who is a solid finisher. Sanchez has a very strong wrestling game and has showed submission potential recently. Barnes looks to have this fight on the feet on the ground it could go either way.

 

   Also in the Main Event we will see a rematch in the Openweight division with two powerhouses ready to go all out. Arne Riseman is now 3-0 with Infinity winning his last two by KO, including "KO of the night" against Raven Harris in there first fight. Arne is now 42 and has done a lot in the MMA world but has yet to win a title, a win here could very well set him up for a Title shot. Raven bounced back since his KO loss to Arne by finishing off Eliod Bunkley Iii in round 3 of there bout. Raven is also in the crosshairs of his MMA Career and a 2nd loss to Riseman could very well be his last fight. The Deer Antler Spray may have finally wore off on this once scary Heavyweight prospect.

 

Ladies and gents after this event we will see who the top 2 Lightweights are and a new champion will soon be crowned. 

 

This has been another Douche McBaggins previews hope you all get to the event early and "Have a drink on me" as my lads from AC/DC would say, just one though.
