UNDERCARD
Wesly Boom defeats Tommy Walker via Decision (Unanimous)
In the first round Boom started off with a takedown into Walker's guard but he wasn't as active as the referee wanted so they were forced back up. This didn't last though because just a second later Boom was back into Walker's guard and this time he was able to be active enough to keep the fight on the ground till the round ended. That first round was all Boom, 5 minutes of pure dominance.
The second round was very much like the first round, Boom showed his dominance on the ground yet again and Walker went to his corner with a helpless look on his face.
In the third round many spectators expected Walker to go in looking for a quick finish and he probably was but he still didn't have an answer for Boom's grappling and so just like that he lost all three rounds in similar fashion.
Oscar Baker defeats Igor Shusharin via TKO (Strikes)
The second fight of the night was a very brief encounter where Oscar Baker finished Igor Shusharin in 32 seconds. Shusharin came into this fight with a predictable game plan and that proved to be his undoing. It took Baker just a single punch to cut Shusharin's face and an additional three to knock him down. Honestly Shusharin should work on his striking defense because all of Baker's punches found their way through his defence.
Amr Zeineldin defeats Tony Turbo via Submission (Americana)
The first round was all Zeineldin, he simply toyed with Turbo for 5 minutes. He first got him with a takedown into guard and landed a few strikes before deciding to stand back up. He then completed another takedown before Turbo could do anything and controlled the action for two minutes before standing back up again. As if that wasn't enough games, Zeineldin got his third takedown of the fight just seconds after standing up and tried to finish the fight late in the round but Turbo was ready and defended the submission attempt.
In the second round, Zeineldin switched things up a little bit and pushed Turbo against the cage for a clinch. The next two minutes was both the guys trying and failing to take the other down and so after this futile struggle Zeineldin decided to break the clinch and shoot for a takedown outside, which he got with ease. He tried to lock in a submission again late in the round but Turbo's defense held up.
After a mutual clinch early in the third round, Zeineldin pulled guard successfully and also did a slick sweep to get on top in Turbo's guard. Shortly after that though he decided to stand back up, but that didn't last too because he shot and completed his fifth takedown a second after. After passing to half guard and then to side control, Zeineldin saw an opportunity to lock in an Americana which he successfully did and forced Turbo to tap.
Vadim Finkelstein defeats Carlos Compare via KO (Superman Punch)
Finkelstein started the fight with a nice takedown into guard and started working on some nice ground and pound. Compare wasn't planning on staying down though because he managed to escape from the ground but was still being controlled against the cage, a position he also escaped from. After a brief striking exchange Finkelstein shot and completed a takedown but Compare escaped almost immediately. Finkelstein wasted no time in lunging in with a big right hand that knocked Compare down and had his legs wobbly. After waiting for Compare to get up Finkelstein threw a superman punch that connected squarely to Compare's jaw and that was lights out for Carlos.
MAIN CARD
Goran Acker defeats King Simbolon via TKO (Strikes)
Simbolon simply beat himself in this fight. Yes he was putting up quite a fight in the clinches he initiated but he was still getting spanked, even more so on the outside. After being rocked with two minutes left in the round Simbolon thought to clinch up with his opponent to buy time to regain his legs but Acker had other plans. Acker continued with his onslaught in the clinch as he gave Simbolon absolutely no time to recover as he was aggressively throwing strikes. His big moment came when he created enough separation to land a big uppercut that dropped Simbolon and followed it up with more strikes until the referee had to jump in and stop the fight.
Arthur Fleck defeats Andre Mith via TKO (Strikes)
After nearly three minutes if one guy unsuccessfully shooting for takedowns and the other missing with punches we finally got an exciting moment in the fight when Fleck scored his first takedown. The rest of the round was Fleck connecting with some light ground and pound and failing to lock in a Kimura in side control.
The second round got underway and just a minute into it Mith finally connected with a combo that sent Fleck crashing to the mat, opening a cut on his face in the process. Mith waited for Fleck to get back up in hopes of landing another big attack but Fleck was ahead of him as he scored his second takedown shortly after. For the next three minutes we saw Fleck display some amazing ground dominance and end the round on a high note.
In the third round Fleck was not planning on letting Mith connect with another lucky punch so he went in and got a takedown very early. For four minutes Fleck was landing with some good ground and pound and also going in for submissions but Mith was ready to defend those. After seeing that he couldn't make Mith tap Fleck started putting in more weight to his strikes and it worked because as soon as he did this he started to really damage Mith and finally finished him just before the round ended.
Marko Oberlander defeats Stanislav Shusharin via TKO (Strikes)
Shusharin clearly went into this fight in a bad condition because after taking only three body shots from Oberlander he was already breathing heavily. Oberlander used this opportunity to land a big right hand that sent Shusharin spinning to the canvas and followed it up with more strikes to earn himself a thirty one second TKO win.
Richard Feynman defeats Calvin Green via TKO (Cut)
Feynman's elbows really won him this fight because he was getting outclassed on the feet. After clinching up with Green Feynman was able to connect with some heavy punches and elbows that cut Green and opened up his cut more and more until the cut doctor was forced to put an end to their fun encounter. Feynman himself got cut in this fight but it was nothing major.
Zahn Dingo defeats John Bell via TKO (Strikes)
Bell started this fight aggressive but got caught with some nice counters by Dingo with one of them knocking him down. He got back up though and immediately clinched with Dingo. This made his situation was worse because Dingo sparked him inside the clinch too, landing a total of twenty one head punches and thirteen body strikes. Bell didn't connect with any of this strikes. After three minutes of taking this punishment Bell's chin finally gave away and Dingo sent him to the floor with a big uppercut and more strikes on the ground that forced the referee to jump in and stop the beating
