 Preliminary Bout Number 1- Bantamweight Bout (135lbs)
Rusaka "Baraka" Gono versus Austin "Hollywood" Worner
Gono came out and score three takedowns in the first round with two of them resulting in a referee stand up. The reason being he just was not doing much after the takedowns, as he would just lie in guard. After the third takedown Gono went for a submission but Worner was able to take the top position after he defended the submission and then he went to work. After a few submission attempts Worner was able to lock in an armbar to force the tap out.
Results: Worner wins by submission (armbar) at 4:55 of the 1st round
Preliminary Bout Number 2- Featherweight Fight (145lbs)
Bolius "One round fighter" Kalabokas versus Bruce Shashia
I had Kalabokas winning this fight by TKO in the first round but I was off by a bit. Shashia completely dominated the first round standing up and on the ground. He really took major control once it went to the ground. In the second round Kalabokas did a much better job but I still think Shashia still won the round mainly because of the because of what he did on the ground. The third round Shashia seemed he wanted to do a little more standing than he did in the first two rounds and that was a big mistake. Shashia threw a body shot and Kalabokas landed a counter punch that sent Shashia into a daze and shortly after Kalabokas was able strike his way to a TKO.
Results: Kalabokas wins by TKO at 0:57 in the 3rd round
Preliminary Bout Number 3- Bantamweight Fight (135lbs)
Coors "Silver Bullet" Light versus Sun "Kakarot" Wukong
I had Wukong winning by TKO and I was shocked that Light was able to take it to decision. Wukong completely dominated the fight in every round but Light looked better progressively throughout the fight. Light did not look good anywhere in the fight especially on the ground and the fight took place mostly on the ground. All three judges and I scored the fight thirty to twenty seven.
Results: Wukong wins by decision (unanimous) after the 3rd round
Preliminary Bout Number 4- Welterweight Fight (170lbs)
"Cold Storm" Markus Vinicius versus "GroundnPound" Kevin Coonaments
Vinicius was determined to not allow this fight to go to the third round like I predicted. Markus took the fight to the ground in the opening seconds of the fight. After the takedown Markus started aggressively pounding away at Coonaments. After landing nine punches Coonaments was cut, dazed, and then knocked out.
Results: Vinicius wins by TKO at 2:57 of the 1st round
Preliminary Bout Number 5- Light Heavyweight Fight (205lbs)
"Wrecked" Stew Sauced versus Tim Tupy
I am not sure if I have ever picked Tupy to win and his manager pointed out that was I clearly wrong. I once again did not pick Tupy to win and he was set to prove me wrong again as he came out very aggressively. Tupy threw more strikes than Sauced but Sauced was landing a lot more. Tupy was only able to land one strike while Sauced landed eight. Sauced did not get the knockout as the referee had to stop the fight and award Sauced with a TKO win.
Results: Sauced wins by TKO at 1:43 of the 1st round
Main Card Bout Number 1- Welterweight Fight (170lbs)
"Mangeur de bine" Adelard Desormeaux versus Oberyn "Steel" Martell
These two were pretty evenly matched coming into this fight. I thought it would be a good back and forth bout and I thought the striker would have the advantage. That did not hold true in the first round as Adelard scored an early takedown and then he proceeded to dominate the round from the ground. Round two Desormeaux looked for the early takedown again and he scored it. Adelard again dominated the fight from the ground leaving Martell in a bad situation going into the third and final round. I felt a Martell come back happening in the final round and boy so did he. Martell was able to stuff some takedowns while keeping the fight standing for the beginning of the round. Once Oberyn started to really turn up the heat Adelard got the fight back to the ground where he was able to control and land some nice ground and pound to edge out the round and win the fight thirty to twenty seven.
Results: Desormeaux wins by decision (unanimous) after the 3rd round
Main Card Bout Number 2- Lightweight Fight (155lbs)
Damien Lok versus Brandon "Badboy" Marsden
Lok started this fight off by shooting in and taking Marsden down quick. The entire first round was competed on the ground and Lok was the one with the dominate position for the majority of the round. Lok was able to secure winning the round with some fierce ground and pound while aggressively looking for a submission. Both fighters looked like they wanted to stand and bang in round number two and once again Lok was on the offense while Marsden was taking a beating. The two fighters ended up in the clinch more than once and Marsden ended up taking the fight to the ground out of the clinch. Once Marsden pulled guard he then quickly swept his opponent and then passed to mount. From mount Marsden put Lok on dream street with some heavy ground and pound and then he locked in an armbar to get the submission win.
Results: Marsden wins via submission (armbar) at 2:53 of the 2nd round
Main Card Bout Number 3- Light Heavyweight Fight (205lbs)
Arshnoor "THE BRUTALIZEAR" Singh versus Khru "Big Buddah" Maokhamphiou
Both fighters came out swinging to start the fight and Khru was getting the best of Singh from the start. He was able to cut open Singh as he landed with everything. The dominance of Khru only lasted about a minute and fifth teen seconds before Singh started to mount and offensive game plan. Arshnoor became aggressive and ended up cutting Khru as well. Big Buddah did not react well to the blood dripping down his face and he went into a shell covering up and trying to counter with leg kicks in hopes of slowing down Singh. When the round ended I had to score it for Singh even though the round was close. That would be the last close round as Singh came out blazing in the second round. Singh had a great mix of punches and leg kicks with some other levels dabbled throughout his offense. Khru had no chance in the second round as he continued to just look for counter opportunities and leg kicks. Heading into the third and final round I have Singh up two rounds to none. Once again Singh came out flying landing a lot of low kicks. Singh switched levels and went high with a kick dropping Khru near the one minute mark. Singh jumped on top and started pounding away at Khru to get the stoppage.
Results: Singh wins via TKO at 1:07 of the 3rd round
Co Main Event Main Card Bout Number 4- Featherweight Fight
Bruce "Mr.Jiu jitsu" Gracie versus DeMario "McDojo Blackbelt" Williams
I put a lot of faith in the wrestling of Williams and I called for him to ground and pound the black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Williams went another route as he wanted to use his wrestling for the clinch and it was effective. Williams was dominating the round with strikes in the clinch until Gracie pulled guard. Williams started landing some ground and pound but Gracie was able to pull out an armbar from his back forcing Williams to tap.
Results: Gracie wins via submission (armbar) at 4:26 of the 1st round
Main Event Main Card Bout Number 5- Lightweight Fight (155lbs)
"THE MAGIC MAN" Mustafa Al Turk versus "Flash" Gordon Lefleaur
This fight took place almost entirely in the clinch. To start off the fight Al Turk moved into the clinch position but Lefleaur started to take control. Head and body punches rained down on Al Turk from the clinch and he could not get the fight under control. Gordon clearly won the first round because of the clinch and he even had Al Turk out on his feet but Lefleaur could not finish the fight. To start round two Gordon decided to go back to the clinch since he was so successful with it in the first round. Al Turk caught him with a flush shot that opened up a cut on Lefleaur but he did not allow that to slow down his aggressive attack. Gordon continued to land head and body punches until a big one put Al Turk against the cage and on conscious. Lefleaur followed up with some more big shots and the referee had to call a stop to the fight.
Results: Lefleaur wins by TKO at 3:58 of the 2nd round
