TTFC: Binzo's World Tour EVENT

Event Preview: TTFC Binzo's World Tour
Team Thomas Fight Club
2014-01-25, New York, Credit Card Center
Author:King Scooby

 Binzo Binzo's World Tour has all the glamour and glitz that it would need without a supporting card to go along with the event, but Mike Thomas didnt care about that fact, he packed on 9 more fights, a title bout and a third time rematch between The president of the universe and The real slim shady.

 

Before I get into the card and predictions,i had a few interesting events occur at work this week (This is a true story) that I wanted to enlighten TTFC and fight fans about, I will only talk about one in this edition so check my other writeups for more. But, if you didnt know, The Great Scooby Jr, is a cable guy, like Larry. So I arrived at an apartment to repair the customer's internet connection. At the home was a Grandmother, her daughter and two granddaughters. After about 20 minutes of a normal household life as I worked, minus one of the granddaughters (about 17 years of age) crying, presumably about a breakup with her girlfriend, conflict began. Granny tells her granddaughter not to curse & act disrespectful in her house ever again, (im assuming that she was taking this breakup hard and let her frustration out a little too loud) this simple request became a big deal to the granddaughter as she leaped up off her bed and threw two flurries of punches, one with about 3 punches landing. The grandma (about 65 years of age) then proceeded to put her cane DOWN, sidestep the rest of the combination and fire back with a few Johny Hendricks hooks scoring a knockdown and then went into full mount and pounded away. After landing the final strike she yelled “I JUST GOT HOME FROM CHEMOTHERAPY! I DONT HAVE TIME FOR THIS!” At this point, the other granddaughter came and closed the door of the room I was in so I couldnt see more. I could hear arguing but I THOUGHT the violence was done as things got quiet. Then the Daughter (about 35 years of age) came into the room I was in to set up a new password for the wifi when suddenly she heard her daughter still spouting off, she ripped the door open and went rambo style throwing heavy strikes and none landed, her daughter (the same girl who got blasted by Granny) landed a perfect strike right on the button and her mom's head snapped back & she dropped, although she was rocked, she jumped back up and used her adult-strength advantage to grab her daughter by the hair and land repeated uppercuts and moved into a very odd RNC using the outside of her forearm.

 

I had never seen a rock and lock submission in person and was appalled that I saw it inside of a house during a service call. Likewise I had never seen a 65 year old woman with the head movement of Floyd Mayweather Jr. My new hypothesis is that, unlike AnnMaria and Ronda, fight skills sometimes skip generations as the daughter clearly was lacking. My amusement was filled as Granny sat down as if nothing had occurred and continued her homework on her laptop, she didnt even get a glass of water! Amazing, simply.... Amazing...

 

Now, Back to this event, The President of the Universe, Brian Maddox will take on Marshall Mathers for the third time. With the series between these two fighters sitting uncomfortably at 1 win each, both fighters will look to take this fight by force. Both previous fights were very entertaining and filled with strategy as they both ended with unanimous decision victories. Brian Maddox was able to land some good ground and pound and dominate the clinch winning the first match whil Marshall Mathers dominated the standup in the second. This fight will come down to who gets to have their way in the cage. If the fight spends a lot of time on the ground Maddox will win where Mathers will dominate standing. The two fighters are both 39 years of age and worthy of being remembered forever by Tycoon fans worldwide, but this current fight will do a lot for their resume's as they inch closer to the end of their careers especially since both fighters are top 30 in their weightclass. I expect Brian Maddox to get this fight to the ground and dominate this main event.

 

The 185lb title bout will be one that features the surging “Unkind Artist” who has won 4 straight against some of TTFC's finest going up against Mike Holmes. Holmes won his last fight against Klein East late in the 3rd round when East decided to go for broke and throw everything at Holmes and ran straight into a solid right hand just like the one that child gave her mother in my story earlier, only this time Klein East never recovered. The 32 year old Holmes sports a 31-10 record where he has been extremely dominant throughout his career and doesnt look like he is slowing down. However I think that the new victory fountain the Unkind Artist has been drinking from has made him appear to be unstoppable almost like one of those expensive toilets from Japan. Two weeks ago he snatched the title from Gregg Valentine showing excellent heart by recovering from being dazed in the cage and winning the fight on points. This will be a standup war that neither fighter will even attempt to go to the ground in. Although Holmes is the superior standup fighter, I think The Artist will somehow paint his way to victory once more.

 

Judo Ray Me in Montreal was the first Leg of Binzo Binzo's final tour around the world where he was victorious against Leandro Alves who had in my opinion a gameplan that drove him into failure. Binzo was taken down twice where he dominated the fight on the ground with strikes and transitions. Just because Binzo shows up with a sexy dame on his shirt doesnt mean you need to jump into his guard because his BJJ blackbelt can turn the tide of any fight quickly. Shoeless Al Bundy loves to take fights to the ground where he has won the majority of his fights with GNP and heavy strikes. I will admit, I am totally biased and im pulling for Binzo, but to the credit of Al Bundy, this will be a tough fight irreguardless what rankings say. Binzo will have to keep the fight standing and do some heavy damage for the time being otherwise I dont think he will be able to avoid being taken down and giving up a few strikes for a full 15 minutes. We are sure that Binzo wants to go undefeated for the entire tour, but that means he must get past Bundy. Nevertheless I will take Binzo for the win because I like his standup game a lot *And I Mean Alot*

 

As for my other predictions, I have Utley over Babitu, Schayle over Asher, Black over Duke on Roids, Mehtmeht over Maiden, Clay Thomas over GSP, Toa Kiuga over Russell jacobs and Stefaniak over Forrest Griffin. You all know by now, if you disagree with my predictions, you can take all of your bets to MFN bookies and “put your money where your mouth is.” We would like to thank Mike Thomas and the matchmaker Clark Kent for putting this event together as well as everyone else on the Binzo Binzo tour. Be Safe Fight fans and TO ALL ENJOY!
