Island FC 16 (late) Review

ISLAND FC, Fight Organization, New York
Company profile by

 ISLAND FC 16 was live from the sold out Hard Knocks Arena in The Island, we had a wonderfull card with some of the longest serving fighter for the promotion envolved on this one ....there were loads of VIP guests on the first row,more notacibly, Cristiano Ronaldo, the portuguese soccer superstar flew out in hes private jet, and hes here showing suport to hes countryman Mamado Tododia...this was one of the most colourfull events i ever seen with loads of live music and entretainment whenever the fighters were not in action, but when they were in action the crowd show to be a very mma educated one ,recognizing and sheering every move the fighters did...now the fights: 

 

170 lbs TITLE Peter Potter vs Jesse Enkamp (FIGHT OF THE NIGHT AWARD) Our p4p king was in action defending hes belt and trying to extend hes unbeaten run....Potter show inteligence by cuting the space and clinching avoiding those lethal head kicks that Jesse possesses...Jesse manage to break the clinch a couple of times but eventualy Potter presistence and very good clinch work paid of and Enkamp sucumbed to the pressure midway into the first round....With this win Potter made a strong statment about the future of thhe welterweight division....the king is here to stay....dominante 1st round TKO win for Peter Potter     

205 lbs Vanilla Isis vs Pakeneva Janne This fight was to decide the next title shot candidate and Isis pass the test with a great show of chin and heart....he ovecame the adversity of being cut as soon as the fight started, but kept hes composure and worked hes way to victory .....It was actualy Janne isntigating the clinch but it was Isis that did the work once they got on that position...it proved to be a fatal decision for Janne....good 1st round comeback TKO win for Vanilla Isis     

185 lbs Alpha Straken vs Tommy Mathews This fight was about two diferent styles clashing and it was the more determined fighter that took the win against the more athletic fighter...Tommy actualy started better and was doing well in the clinch but Alpha was not just going to sit there and get knee unconsiously, he broke the clinch and started playing to hes strenghts, he used hes exelent boxing and footwork to stay in the outside and used hes pin point acurate counter punching until Tommy couldnt take it any more....good 1st round TKO win for Alpha Straken     

265 lbs Sly Marbo vs Adrubale Jhonson This Sep Stone fighter, one of many gracing our promotion, put up on a preformance from the moment he step inside the cage.....both fighters with exelent boxing and they were both very agressive but Marbo proved to be the more acurate and over striked hes oponent...the takedown attempts kept hes oponent guessing more then anything...he pretty much dominated the all fight, won every round and if he wouldnt be cut in the bigining of the first i would have call this a perfect fight for Marbo.....dominante decision win for Sly Marbo   

  185 lbs Haywood Jablomey vs Nelson Pervis (SUBMISSION OF THE NIGHT AWARD) This was the father of all comebacks, great fight with a dramatic finish....both fighters made an "agreement" and kept the fight standing from the outside and countering each other ....Jablomey tried hard to clinchh but he was geting caught far too many times on the way in....hes oponent used hes superior boxing and counter punching to do the damage,and he was dominating the entire fight, until with a bit more then a minute to go he got taken down and submited....everyone in the arena was "OH MY GOD", Pervis was one minute away from a win and end up geting finished....everything can happend inside the cage....comeback submission win for Haywood Jablomey 

205 lbs Hagrid Potter vs Gutlaf Lagran (KO OF THE NIGHT AWARD) Hagrid is one of my favourite up and coming fighters ,he has some of the best kicks in the entire rooster and uses them very eficiently.....in this fight he was up against a very agressive brawler with ko power in both hands....he avoid the danger by keeping the distance using hes kicks to thhe body and caught hes oponent on the way in with a tremendous head kick.... beautiful 1st round KO win for Hagrid Potter   

  135 lbs Tobias Marshall vs Freak Wannabe Tobias workrate won him this fight, he absolutly overworked hes oponent this aproach worn Wannabe down and made him defensivly careless,Wannabe was actualy being the most sussessfull in the striking exanges but i guess Tobias has some nasty power in those hands too..good 1st round TKO win for Tobias Marshall   

265+ lbs Pudge Bogatyr vs This Amateur This fight was the number one contender for the ko of the night award....Pudge is for me, on pair with Hangrid in terms of kicking skills....he is an absolute nightmare to deal with given the acuracy and power that he trows those kicks....this fight was a testement of that he kept choping down those legs and going upstairs every now and then...this tactics paid of whe he caught This Amateur with a brutal high kick that send him flying across the cage....wonderfull 1st round KO win for Pudge Bogatyr 

145 lbs Nate Kulina vs Jerry Cantrell This was one of our two decisions of the night, on this contest we had two fighters in search of their 1st professional win....this was a very good fight for the level of fighters envolved, they show tactical diversity and incredible will and determination to win....Kulina did dominate trough out the fight ,specialy with hes ability to take the fight to the ground and very good ground and pound ,he kept very agressive and never stoped punching.....in the end he scored a dominante win against a  low ranked oponent,never the less ,this win should pump hes confidence.....  

155 lbs Kai Trie Tadeo vs Carlos Diaz Diaz did actualy started the fight better ,very confident he looked realy good on that first couple of exanges ,showbouting and very flamboyant....over confident,that proved to be the case, he lost the fight to that and hes low work rate ....Kai controled the pace of the fight and show good cage control thats why he won this fight, he kept busy and left hes oponent guessing all the time....in the end hes relentless,ugly but eficient work rate paid of.....good 1st round TKO win for Kai Trie Tadeo   

This was it folks, next event will be even better and the next one after that even more so....the promotion keeps growing like a chiken on steroids and we reprezenting one of the brightest new aliances around.....if you want to join us get in touch to see what could be done...from #THEUNIT with love......
