 Hello everybody, i'm back! Roy Goos here to tell you all about Aggression 19 in Rio! So here we go!
The main event was a suprise to me. I would've thought that Wedge Xiii would've taken the title from Borys Grabowski. However, Borys Grabowski walked away with the win. This is Fight Of The Night caliber, as it took 5 rounds for this fight to end. The last minute was a race against the clock for both these men. I would've loved to see some more Ground action, but it wouldn't happen. What made this fight REALLY close is the scoreboards. Even though it didn't end via decision, both men had earned themselfs 2 rounds. I think that if it went to the judges, Grabowski still would've retained. 99% percent on the match rating. Nice. The lack of Clinch and Ground may have caused that 1%.
Also, i apologize for one huge mistake i made. It wasn't the Lightweight title, but the Featherweight. Whoops.
The Co-Main event also suprised me. Clearly, the superior fighter was Nathan Redmond going into this. But the stakes and the pressure may have been too high for Nathan to hold. It took 3 rounds to end this fight while i predicted it would've been a 1 round fight. Obviously, i don't have much skill on the predicting side of things, but heck, whatever. This fight was a good one, and earned it's 100% fight rating.
YES! I called it right... ahem. The method and winner anyhow. Jordan Mutch was succesful in his bout against Aze Gori, who lost via T.K.O (Strikes). Lovely! The match rating suprised me though. 72%. Tough crowd i guess. What has suprised me thus far about this entire event is the fact that all of the fighters we've seen all have great Cardio. Way to go fellas! Way to...

Represent ATTICUS BLACK! (Tokyo). Way to use their oh-so-epic supplements and nutritions. :)

Now, the winner may have come to no suprise, but the method did. De Mira has a great Muay Thai skill and multiple fights have told me he has Lethal Headkicks. Utulize 'em, fool! Congrats on the win though. I called it. :P But next time, and for those of you reading this might wanna double check this, set your thing what you do AFTER the fight. Do you thank the fans? Boast and build hype? Thank your sponsors? Do something! USE IT!
Okay, see, when i was writing the preview for this event, i knew Ed Alves was gonna win. But what took him so long to submit this guy? He has no energy! No morale! Oh man, this has to hurt your status as manager. There we 9 submission attempts here. Only 1 led to tapping. Also, here's a fun fact. When i was predicting the method, i was swinging between Kimura and Armbar. I had written down the entire review with "Armbar" as the result for this one. I pressed back and Whoop! gone. Review 2.0 had Kimura. In fact, most of the predictions so far would've been right. What a kick in the sack.

That's the main card for ya. Here's lowercards and a few lines of details.
Victor Kang vs. Wiz Khalifa had been pushed to the limit. Wait, no. It had been pushed to the judges, as Victor Kang came out on top. Yay for Victor!
My fighter, Owen Rose vs. Paul Timberlake saw Owen Rose picking up the victory, getting 2 victories in a row. My prediction was ALMOST right. It only took a minute longer, but that was because i saw no use in rushing at the last moment. :/
Ban Dit vs. Randall White's result suprised me. Not the winner, but the method. Submission (Strikes). Randall White's "Heart" factor may have given out on him, and forced him to tap in mid-GNP.
Carlos Helms vs. Jim Gold ended via T.K.O (Strikes), the 5th TKO (Strikes) this night. Wow... Just wow. Let me just go on the record for saying (you may quote me) that all 'fighters who lost via TKO are cussion-faced.'
Fernando Balestra vs. Daniel Macena made me rage. How do two cry-babies fighting in a cage over low morale's fight rating equal my fighter's potential, OTN receiving (probably not), title shot deserving, totally epic fight? How? I ain't hating though. Congrats to the victor.
Also, here's Of The Night awards.
All to Owen Rose.

Okay, i'm kidding.
Fight Of The Night - I'd say it goes to Borys Grabowski vs. Wedge Xiii. Fight to the limit. Good job to both fighters. Wedge Xiii may have lost and Borys may have won, but the fans are the true winners.
K.O Of The Night - Algenir Aquiar De Mira because nothing equals a headkick to some heavy strikes.
Submission Of The Night - I love a good Triangle Choke, Fernando Balestra.
