Contention 1: The Beginning Preview

Ozzie: I've got six words for ya: Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. We have been waiting. We have been looking to the sky and praying for the day to come. It hasn't come just yet but we can smell it. You go outside, you smell a change in the air as winter leaves and you know spring is coming, and that means only one thing: Contention 1: The Beginning. It all begins here. I am Ozzie Bravo, and joining me to preview the event is my good friend Harold Parkinson the Fifth, or as I like to call him, HPV. How are you doing today Harry?

HPV: Ozzie, great to be here my man. The lights are flashin', the stars are aligning, and the hookers are shakin' their stuff. We're in Vegas baby!

Ozzie: We gotta great card to shoo in this here organization into a new direction. It's a full card which means 20 fighters, and only 10 of whom can walk out with the victory.

HPV: These fighters are going to roll the dice. Let's see who ends out on top and who ends up as unlucky as the lady I bedded last night who did the dirty dance with the Five Pump Chump Champ!

Ozzie: Since we don't got a lot of previous experience from these fighters, we'll roll right through the fights with 0-0 records.

HPV's Lucky Picks

Michael Chambers v Owen Longfinger

Chambers has it in the bag here if he can close the distance quickly and use his wrestling skills to win.

Grant Hall v Billy Bob Baker

Two very similar fighters, I'll go with the experience of Baker's manager Jimmy da Jet.

Nelly Haynes v Jethro Tully

Two similar fighters, in fact, they look the same. Haynes is slightly uglier, so I'll go with Tully here.

Barry Robertson v Ryan Mosley

A slugfest that I see Robertson getting the better of.

David Pesina v Sheamus McHoolihan

Pesina seems to have the better offensive set, I'll go with him here.

Mateusz Ciechanek v Tabbrani Hassan

I can't pronounce either of these dude's names, so since they're very similar I'll with the one I'm least likely to mess up saying, Hassan.

Todd Duffee v Elmer Goulfinhans

If Duffee can keep this standing it's all over for Goulfinhans. I'm going with Duffee here.

Eli Devlin v Kevin Chambers

We know what we're getting out of Chambers. He has an impressive decision win. Devlin, is a wild card here. I like Chambers in this one, he seems to have picked up some new tricks fairly quickly and I expect him to be a real threat at 170.

Thomas Clawnes v Jimmy Beam

Beam has a first round win. If you look at it though, his opponent decided to take him down and got submitted. Clawnes won't be looking to go to the ground here where Beam has the advantage. I'd pick Clawnes here to pick up the W.

Chris Hieron v Shang Tsung

Hieron and Tsung both have fight experience. Hieron picked up an easy submission victory. Tsung picked up an L. I expect Hieron to double his wins and and Tsung to double his losses and put Hieron at 2-0 in his young career.

Ozzie: Harold! That wasn't so bad, eh? You didn't even give away that you soiled yourself before this preview because you were so nervous with your picks!

HPV: That, that's not true. Not true at all.

Ozzie: And then you had to change, and you soiled those pants too!

HPV: Stop, stop lying.

Ozzie: It was hilarious!

HPV: Don't spread these false allegations.

Ozzie: We got it on tape, let's roll the clip!

HPV: Well that's all for tonight, it looks like we have to cut our program short. Happy fighting everyone!
