Shawn Destruction v Jacob Ford- BankRupt was excited to get this fight signed to start the main card for this event. He fees this fight will be a back and forth war! Destruction made a very impressive entrance to Syn Euro by best Nikac Komitata in the first round by TKO. Nikac has proven to be very dangerous, having knocked off Nigel York in his Syn Euro debut. Destruction proved that he does not take an opponent lightly, and dispatched Nikac in the first round quickly. He may not be as lucky against the youngest HW to make the Syn Euro VOF. Ford has an impressive record of KOs. He doesn’t fight for the judges, he fights for the fans! Many expected Ford to be undefeated and holding the title at this point, but the former champion Vale Valhall put an end to the type of thought. After an Arloskiesque period of worrying about his chin, Ford is feeling confident and looks to take his first step back toward greatness with a KO of Destruction. Odds-

Cain Marko v Nigel York- In a weekend full of heavyweight match ups that make fans of big fighters and big KOs drool, this is another possible war. Marko is another all or nothing fighter from HBCC. He is looking to make a name for himself in the big leagues as he takes on former #1 contender Nigel York. Marko has already claimed that he will become the 4th man to put York to sleep. Marko is very confident and feels his chin is still granite, though he has now tasted the mat 3 times in his career. Marko feels that his chin is good enough to give his power the time to get the KO before his opponent can finish him. When asked to comment, York laughed and said, “Marko couldn’t KO my grandmother.” York is also on record believing that Marko’s granite chin was a glitch in the game, and it meant to read out as glass chin. York has been much more vocal and aggressive since his title loss to Cregov. Rumor has it he felt he took the fight to easily, and didn’t show killer instinct. York seems to have changed his whole mood, and one doubts that he will ever show up without killer instinct again. One thing is for sure Syn Euro fans, this fight will not see the judges!!!! Someone gets another KO loss on their record in this one fans! Odds-

Takeru Kyle v Johnny Rotten-Is this a preview of the 2MDT finals? These two men sure hope so. Kyle comes in as one of the most well rounded fighters in the weight class. With striking to hang with anyone, good wrestling, and a black belt Kyle can beat a man any way he wishes. Kyle is coming off a successful Syn Euro debut in a highly contested split decision over Wanderlei Silva Jr. A fight that earned him and his competitor FOTN honors. Kyle looks to win the honor again and build a head of steam going into the 2MDT. Rotten was considered the next title contender with a win in this fight, but he also passed on the chance so he could attempt to win the 2 million. Rotten brings a well trained striking game to the cage, and few men in the orgainization have an answer for it. Rotten hopes that Kyle will not have the answer, and expects to get himself a win going into the tourney. Gainig momentum going into the 2MDT is very important to both men, and both men expect this to be the spring board to their rum at the money. Odds-

Dirk Harvath v Phil Ivey-This one determines the next contender for the Syn Euro 205 belt. Dirk Harvath arrives in Syn Euro looking to test the waters and see if he will stay longterm in Helsinki. Harvath is formerly ranked #1 at 205 in the world. Besides Orlando Sackett, Harvath may be the biggest star Syn Euro has ever seen at 205. Dirk will be looking to take another step toward being #1 at 205 again with a win over Ivey. With 11 KOs and 8 submissions Ivey will have his work cut out for him in finding a way to beat this monster. But Ivey has never backed down from a challenge and he doesn’t plan on starting now. Ivey too has been near the top of the tower, as he was once #13 p4p in the world. Ivey comes in with a game plan akin to a poker player. He may look ot bluff you with a left and KO you with a right, or he may go all in as soon as the bell rings. One never knows what Phil Ivey has in store for his opponent until he arrives in the cage. The one thing we do know is to not count Ivey out, as his double exceptional striking has already overcome a elite/sensational striking deficiet once since coming to Syn Euro, and no one in Helsinki would be surpised if he pulled this win off too. Odds-
-300

Per Fekt v The Hulk-It is the return of the greatest rivalry in Syn Euro history! The fans love it when these two men step into the cage, they have yet to be dissappointed. 3 fights, all ending in Ko, and the longest lasting to the 3:35 mark or roudn 1. These two men have only been out of te first round one time in 28 combined fights, an unbelievable statistic. The Hulk is really pissed about losing the last fight to Fekt. He claims that he will win the fourth fight and end the rivalry onnce and for all, while reclaiming the Syn Euro title he held for so long. The Hulk is no stranger to big fights as he was the co main event on one of the biggest Syn Euro cards ever. The Hulk plans to adjust his gameplan and thinks that per’s chin will be no match for his power for the third time. Per is also disgruntled that he feels he will have to beat The Hulk 2 time to prove he is the best SHW in Syn Euro history. He feels that he has already proved that, but he knows that people will never give him his due until he owns the rivalry over The Hulk. Per claims that he figured out the key to Hulk’s game, and feels that the 2 wins are just a technicality. Expect this event to end early and expect to be on your feet fans! These two men have yet to disappoint. Odds-
