Main Card
Heavyweight Division
Eyvind Skallagrimsson(7-4-0) Vs Bleeding Spanner(24-17-0)
We get this show started with two Dynasty Newcomers joining the Heavyweight Division.
Eyvind Skallagrimsson is a former champion from Glory Fighting Championship which he never had the chance to defend said belt unfortunately. Eyvind took a brief break from MMA to pursue a career in grappling. After spending the majority of 2022 in CWC compelling a grappling record of 5-9 the BJJ Black belt decided maybe MMA was his calling and began to focus his training on MMA fulltime. Eyvind has a notable victory over Maximilian Bonaparte in his Enigma debut. Bonaparte is now a top Heavyweight Worldwide, so quite the feather under the cap.
Are other participant in this opening fight has quite the History to tell as well, and 10 years experince more than his foe for tomorrow night. The Mans name is Bleeding Spanner and yes, he is known to bleed, with more than half of his loses coming by way of Doctor Stoppage, the Sons a bitch! Aside from the cuts though Spanner has had a fun career from his early days in the ridiculously named Fart MMA, where he had an amazing 7 straight Title Defences as their Heavyweight Champion. Since then, the man has gone on to fight some top-notch names starting with Kilo Maluga(Who he has a win over), Alexei Babinski, Alborz Mumu and Ben Slam to name a few. Spanner may have seen his better days, but never count him out as he looks to make a comeback here at DMMA.
Welterweight Division
Humors Lacplesis(43-18-1) Vs Raminus Polus(21-12-0)
Another Legend of the MMA world looks returns for his second fight here at DMMA, as he meets a former three-time Welterweight Title challenger.
Humors Lacplesis is a former two-time Skrap Fights Lightweight champ, and a former two-time SMASH Welterweight champ. Humors also managed to snag another belt from CFC in late 2021, Now at 39-year-old he may not be done yet. Lacplesis made his DMMA debut just a month ago scoring a Decision victory and now he looks for a step up in competition. Humors of Latvia is a fan favorite everyone knows the stories of him taking down a gang of street thugs in his front yard after downing 7 bottles of Johnny Walker! Guys a legend simple as that.
Raminus Polus is a man hungry to get himself back on the map in this DMMA welterweight Division. After three straight hard-fought Decision loses, he is in a funk but it's no secret that the completion here is top notch. Raminus has a notable win in his last victory though, being the current #1 contender at 170 pounds in Get Wet About Don. Polus also tried his luck at 185 but decided to come back down to his natural weight of 170. If he can score a win over a name like Humors Lacplesis, we may see Raminus return to the top of this division in due time.
Bantamweight Division
Koa Bouddi(18-6-1) Vs Frank Rizzo(11-6-1)
A crucial Bantamweight scrap is up next and for the victor they will be jumping into a potential #1 contender fight next.
The Aussie Koa Bouddi looked excellent in his return to Bantamweight just three weeks ago when he beat the former champ of the Division in a "Fight of the NIght" Performance. Maurits Assndrop gave Bouddi all he could handle through the first two rounds, and as it seemed we were headed for a very close Decision and bam with just 4 seconds remaining Koa went off with a fury of strikes including a nasty Hook that looked to put Maurits on wobbly legs. Koa was thrown into the Featherweight Title picture in just his second DMMA fight, now with a few fights under his belt expect him to be more relaxed out there if he is awarded another shot at gold.
Frank Rizzo is a dog out there for DMMA, whenever he seems to be done, he manages to string a few big wins together to get his name back on the map. Most recently he took out Yoshimitsu Fukumitsu by Unanimous Decision in Yoshi's last fight with DMMA. He has some big wins over big names like Shigeru Otori who will be fighting for the Vacant Bantamweight Belt this Thursday. Rizzo is a grinder simple as that, the man has never been finished so we fully expect a classic game of chess tomorrow night in London.
Co-Main Event
Heavyweight Division
Constantin Niculescu(17-10-0) Vs Tony Viikinki(11-4-0)
Two Guys coming off wins at Heavyweight look to make their claim for a future #1 contender fight.
Constantin Niculescu had a rough start to the DMMA Heavyweight Division dropping fights to Pete Tyler and Deividas Vilkas back-to-back. Nicu got himself back in the win column in his next fight though, in devastating fashion as well after two even rounds against Patrick Kearney just a few weeks ago. Niculescu forced the ref to intervene around the halfway point of the final round with some massive Ground and Pound shots. With a dreaded four fight loss streak behind him now, Constantin is on the verge of big things once again here at Dynasty MMA.
Tony Viikinki made his triumphant return to the Heavyweight beating former Heavyweight Title contender Pete Tyler by second round TKO stoppage due to a bad cut. Viikinki had some troubles early in round two though but cleared the cobwebs and got back to his plastic surgery on his opponent's face. The big Fin has had two unsuccessful title opportunities in his career at Super Heavyweight, maybe heavyweight will be his shining light. Huge weight difference in this one should be noted as well with Tony outweighing the former 205er by nearly 60 pounds at the weigh ins.
Main Event
Light Heavyweight Division
Swole Ricky Martin(12-5-0) Vs Lucas McCain (16-8-1)
Porrachinha vs The Rifleman ready for a war as one man will be awarded a #1 contender fight next with Hjallis Kalske waiting for his opponent.
Swole Ricky Martin found himself struggling a bit losing back-to-back Decisions to Devonte Pinks and Moritz Zimmerman but rebounded delightfully with a late one punch KO against Tris Kapula just 3 weeks ago. Martin has fought a who's who in the 205 division and has gone through some wars in the process. Swole Ricky has battled inconsistency like no other, as he seems to get so close to a title fight to just have taken away by a close Decision loss. Martin is none for his chin and toughness, only being finished one time in his 17-fight career, so expect another long and exciting fight from the Swole One!
Lucas McCain has had a very similar career in a few ways to his Opponent tomorrow night. With Neither of them earning a title shot yet, but its surely not due to lack of effort as there both gamers I assure you. The Rifleman was not that long ago at the top of his game winning 5 straight fights which included a "FOTN" with former 205-pound champ Niculescu in his final fight of the streak. Much like his opponent though he has had his setbacks and has had to get back in line with the rest of the pack. McCain has a tendency to go out on his Guard though which he may want to avoid in this Big Matchup with Martin.
Big ass weekend for Dynasty MMA with three events coming up in the next 5 days, get ya popcorn and get ready for some fights brothers and sisters!
