WarZone 9: Blood For Blood

Alright everybody, Big Rob here again with you to give you a preview for an upcoming fight card, WarZone 9: Blood For Blood. We're going to start off with the main event and work our way down to the preliminaries.

Spenser Kalkbrenner (Record: 3-0-0/WZ: 0-0-0) vs. Azoth Verormulth (Record: 1-0-0/WZ: 0-0-0)

Our main event, both fighters are making their WarZone debut. Spenser Kalkbrenner has won his first two fights by submission, with his third going to decision. He's shown that he has the ground skills to get you into a position that favours him, but also the ability to keep up should a fight go three rounds.

Azoth Verormulth had his first fight go to a submission victory also, and if it's any indication of what's to come, he could be a dangerous grappler. Only one victory, but only one fight. It's a bit too early to judge this fighter negatively, so

New breed of Wrestlers

Fighter profile of Rome Jones by

Rome "The Havoc" Jones is on a 2 fight win streak and is prepping for his first tournament The Undisputed Manger I.

Rome “The Havoc” Jones: I’m just happy to be able to fight. I was sitting at home wondering what to do with myself. I started watching the tv and there was some fights and I thought That could be something I can do.

I called up my cuz Hardcore Legend and asked him if he could train me at his gym legendary .Inc. I went the next day and I ran into his son Hardcore "Legend Killer" Legend Jr and had no Idea he was such as beast in the ring. I asked my cuz if I can spar with his son and he laughed. I asked him why he laughed and he just said ok. He got his son and me in the ring and told his son he had 10 sec to tap me out. I thought he was joking and next thing I know, I was awoken by smelling salt. He said “that’s why I laughed. You picked the wrong person to spar with”

I learnt my lesson and started to work with less technical guys and start from the bottom. Every time I see his son he never talked smack to me but said” you must also believe in yourself, but you must always know your limits”. Now I am getting coaching tips from his son and now I am on my way to being ready for this tournament. I look forward to it and I know these guys will do their best to get me ready. Stay tune for more on Rome "The Havoc" Jones.

REVO Interviews - Sebastian Belousov and Stephen Anthony

Editorial by Jolon Williams

MMA UNIVERSAL PRESENTS!!! - Sebastian Belousov and Stephen Anthony

Corey Langston : Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us here today at MMA Universal. Today we have with us, Mr. Sebastian Belousov and Mr. Stephen Anthony of the Logan stable. Now, Mr. Anthony. You've spoken in the past of going for a title run. As one of the more hyped fighters here at REVO, you're no doubt bound to get a shot soon enough if you continue your winning ways in the cage, provided the title stays with the Dean camp. So, with that in mind, what are your thoughts on the Winslow/Salty fight that will take place at Camp Wars for the title? Is there a favourite to win in your mind? And while Salty is certainly your camp mate .... are you secretly hoping Winslow will pull out the win so you are still clear to challenge for the championship yourself?

Stephen : Well sir, I am being honest here. I am here in REVO for one thing. One thing only, to be honest. And that is to be the best, to be the champion and so that the world will know my name as the ''greatest heavyweight fighter of all time". I fight anybody at any given time, gosh... I would fight now if it's possible!!!! Right now Winslow is the champion and he is the top predator at the food chain. And Salty is my camp mate and he is a great fighter too. The title match will be surely a war..I can gurantee that. but only one will come out victorious... there's nothing against my buddy Salty, but I think the experience factor of the champ will be the key point here. But still, we are all rooting for our mate, Salty here.

By the way, the Brahma Bull is still waiting, hungry for the first match at REVO ...

Lights Out wins debut via TKO

Fighter profile of Jameson Thunder by

JS: Hello and welcome to Tycoon Times: One on One edition. My name is John Smith and once again, I will be talking with "Lights Out" Jameson Thunder. Thank you for taking the time out of your training to do this.

JT: No worries Josh, there is still time to hop on the bandwagon, but you better have quick feet, 'cause it's picking up speed.

JS: Let's talk about your MMA debut against Relly Grandy, which was awarded Fight of the Night. 3rd round victory by way of TKO. How did you feel about your first professional bout?

JT: I told you I'd knock him out and that is exactly what I did. This isn't exactly rocket science here. There isn't a formula, no method to my madness. I hit you. You go down.

JS: Grandy is primarily a Muay Thai striker - however, during this fight, he repeatedly tried to take the fight to the ground. Is this a testament to your striking ability or do you think he felt like he had the advtange on the ground?<

TTFC McGarrity Vs Leads

Event Preview: TTFC McGarrity Vs Leads
Team Thomas Fight Club
2013-08-31, New York, Credit Card Center
Author:King Scooby

Its showtime at TTFC meeting in New York tonight where we will look forward to the debut of The Soldier Reborn Sun Ra against the TTFC sparkplug Tyrone Tornado.

Sun Ra has an extensive title bolstering career before leaving VERSUS where he spent the majority of his time at the top of his class. He was able to put together a (25-12-1) record with 23 of his 38 fights going to the judges. This tells us one thing… defense is in his blood. His last fight ended in a scorecard loss where Mr Azure was able to add up points with aggressiveness specifically head striking . With Ra’s leg kicks and takedown defense he was able to prevent being taken down and being finished.

The Tornado made me a liar in his title bout appearance against chris mullen where he produced an exciting fight but seemed to be overwhelmed by the amount of different skills Mullen was able to use against him. His superior boxing skill gives him the opportunity to win any and every fight but this also causes a crutch as he is easier to predict. As I said before, Tornado had passed every test before Mullen and with 23 of his 31 fights finishing by decision, we can expect this to be a defensive bat

MAIN CARD

Main Event

Heavyweight Title Fight

#1 Vladislav Munchkin (10-3, 3-0 NGF) v C-Wei Pei (9-0, 4-0 NGF)
Vladislav Munchkin has no holes…seriously, he has NO holes. Munchkin is quick and powerful, he can fight aggressively, but he can counter very well also. He has shown excellent take down defense and striking defense. He is successful on 56% of his take down attempts and on the ground he is super strong and he’s landing 54% of his ground strikes while holding his opponents to 29%. Munchkin will have his chin tested in this, but his striking defense has been elite. Wei Pei is flat out and beast! Pei is undefeated and all 9 of his wins have been by T(KO) with 6 straight KO’s all in the 1st round. He’s shown excellent striking defense and he has defended 100% of his opponents take downs. There is nothing I can say about is clinch or ground fighting since he’s not spent any time there. Munchkin is a very good fighter and he
