Jared Asante: Good evening ladies and gentlemen! LFC 2 just concluded, and we’re here, at Wild Bob’s Bar, with LFC owner James Listerman. What an event that was. It’s pretty much a continuity to where LFC 1 left off. That’s exactly what the fans came here for, everyone walked out of here extremely happy, there’s even a good majority of fans that stayed at the bar to meet the fighters.

RFC 11 review

Event Review: RFC 11: Unforegiven
Rebirth Fighting Championship 285K & 300K

 RFC 11: Unforegiven brought to you by Hilo’s own Vikai Gear!!! The merchandise partner of Rebirth FC! Be sure to check them out, as Vikai has some reasonably priced clothing for your fighters. Also special thanks to Krum Koev for the sweet event posters.


 


RFC 11 was another star studded event.  The crowd was ever growing with anticipation of the Hanzo/Cadwallader super fight. Hilo was abuzz with excitement after the weeks of trash talk between the fighters. Cadwallader’s #1 fan, Barack Obama was on hand or the big fight. Ryan Reynolds was in the audience….dressed as Deadpool. Seriously does he ever take that suit off?!!!!!!! Also in the house was Tom Brady. Tom claimed he was taking the week off, since the Browns weren’t worth his time. This week NE was allowing a lucky fan picked from the stands to QB them to victory. Derrick Rose was also in the house. He was seen sitting with Kobe Bryant, Mike Tyson, Jameis Winston and Ben Rothleisberger. Dear God!!!!! No wonder all the women were congregated in Impaler’s private box. Impaler was wining and dining s

Ascension LHW Rankings

Ascension, Fight Organization, Los Angeles
Company profile by Johnny Lee

 Champion: Sergej Valentinovich
 Sergej has every thing a top level striker needs, good pop in his hands, durability and elite striking.  He has put the whole package together for an impressive run at Ascension, 3-0 in title fights.  The Russian has taken the mma world by storm, but faces his sternest get yet vs the legendary Thiago Renato at Ascension 1017.
 

1. Thiago Renato
Renato really needs no introduction.  He was arguably the most dominant lhw in the game in 2014 and early 2015, racking up many marquee wins and multiple title runs in Syn and Heroic.  Renato took a brief sabbatical to star as Chong Li's adopted son looking for revenge in Bloodsport 22.  Before that he had won three in a row in Ascension and booked himself a title challenger

    Here we go again. Now, I realize that it’s been a long time since you guys have seen either a preview or a review of an event. I apologise for that, and I hope this makes up for it. We’ve had a big show on tonight as Revolution XC 6 was headlined by two former Lightweight Champions out for blood as Hop Sing Jung took on Royal Pain. The co-main featured former Welterweight champion Rick James return for a fight with Exceptional Brazilian striker Fernando Luiz. Also on the card was two of Finland's favorite fighters as Ukko Metso and Pyry Kontio looked to get back on track after devastating losses. And it would be a crime if I forgot to mention that We also had a Featherweight Championship fight featuring Issumater Tariaksuq defending his precious belt against rising star Michael Carter. Without further ado let’s get to the High Flying, Bone Breaking, Light’s out action that only Revolution XC can provide!

JUST BLEED 7

Aspire MMA, Fight Organization, London
Company profile by Albert Kaufman

Just Bleed MMA 280K has a reputation of being one of the most excited Martial Arts Leagues in the World. On many occasions fans packed the Hyashi Lounge in Los Angelos seating over 2,000 true fight fans. MMA fans are not easy crowds to please, yet by some form of expert match-making, Just Bleed always delivers. Their newest event scheduled for October 22 will definitely be no different. Lets go over the Card and review of of the premier bouts.
    We can't talk about headliners until we speak of opener, common sense in my eyes. So lets grab our shovels and dig in folks:
   
Rafal "Chappie" Zamana (7-8-0) versus Oscar "Power" Powell (4-1-0);
    Now this fight has the potential to set a grueling pace for the fights to come, you know the promotion are a group of genius's when their opening fighters battle as if its a title fight. And trust me when I say that these two monsters have that capability. Rafal "Chappie" Zamana come to the fight with a less then desirable record, but if you take a closer look you will notice that this fighter has never gone the "easy route". His debut bout was a D4 slot in TWGC, and as the proud holder of 3 Fight of the Night awards it is safe to say that he is no stepping-stone. Oscar "Power" Powell comes to this fight off of a hard-fought decision victory against Tom Cage. Powell, being the experience wrestler, will need to take down Zamana and grind out a victory and stay cautious to his Purple Belt quality submission game. I am not going to pick a side in this one because I truly believe that it is too well matched to choose.
   
Albert "The Measuring Man" DeSalvo (3-0-0) versus Vassily Solomin (3-1-0)
145LB Title
    Its time to crown a 145LB as King of the Rank Structure! For some time, JUST BLEED MMA has been building their 145LB Ranks and have finally decided to pick the two fighters that will battle for the vacant Throne. DeSalvo shows his worth with 3 victo

Jay's Tycoon Tips

Editorial by Jay Lawrence

The topic of this article is getting your rank up-

This came as a special request and because I've had several people asking me lately, "How did you get so high in rankings?"

Well, the easiest answer is, read my Tycoon Tips articles!  I don't hide anything here folks, this is easy stuff and other than telling you exactly how I do my sliders, I am an open book.  I've even told you how I create my fighters and how I train my fighters.  But let's get down to the basics of the question, gaining ranking.

First, get a lot of fighters.  It's going to be hard to get anywhere in rank with 4 fighters and no Tycoon Assistant.  If you want to be considered anything more than a pleb, get VIP.  Get at least 10 fighters and that Tycoon Assistant. If you can afford it, get 25 fighters!  That's what I did.

Check the free agency daily.  The type of fighters you want to find on there are fighters that were released because a manager went inactive

SP ICON 2.0: The Next Chapter Preview & Predictions

 Prelims:

Wally Markberg vs Monty Fernandez

Preview:

An opening fight between two guys who lost their MMA debuts, they will both be looking to rebound here.  Monty Fernandez got schooled in a boring clinch-fest in his first fight, he wasn’t able to mount any offence; with his back against the cage the whole fight.  Markberg was submitted in his first fight, however he did actually win two rounds quite convincingly, showing some good wrestling with takedowns and top control.  This leads me to think Markberg will take this fight, although he also had very little offence from the ground, so I don’t believe it will be a finish, Markberg via lay and pray.
