 Preliminary Bout Number 1- Light Heavyweight Fight (205lbs)
Bud "King Of Beers" Weiser (3-5) {2-5} versus Lygmantas Daunotas (1-1) {1-1}
Weiser is on a four fight losing streak after starting off his career at three and one. He will be looking to get back on track by winning this fight. He will have a slight advantage on the ground so I think he will need to take this fight to the ground as quickly as possible. Daunotas lost his last fight and he will be looking to rebound. The younger fighter Lygmantas does not have an advantage in the standup but he will have a great advantage in the clinch. He will need to take the fight to the clinch quickly and avoid any sort of takedowns in or out of the clinch.
Prediction: Daunotas wins by TKO in round number 2
Preliminary Bout Number 2- Welterweight Fight (170lbs)
Darc "The Wild One" Von Hayek (1-1) {0-1} versus James "The Snake" Chaney (13-15) {0-3}
Von Hayek is the younger and less experienced fighter in this one. Darc has a big advantage over Chaney in the standup so he should be looking to avoid any sort of takedown. He will need to watch out for a counter takedown as well. Chaney is on a big losing streak and he has yet to win in HFC. To get that first win he will have to find a way to get this fight to the ground. Chaney has a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and that is about all he has, so if the fight does go to the ground he should get the win, but if doesn’t get the fight to the ground he has no shot.
Prediction: Von Hayek wins by TKO in round number 1
Preliminary Bout Number 3- Light Heavyweight Fight (205lbs)
Laz "Flying hollander" Icarus (21-15) {0-3} versus "The Real O.G." Ragnar Lothbrok (2-1) {2-1}
Icarus is o and three in Honor Fighting Champions and he needs a win big time. Most of his losses have come by decision so he has been able to avoid being finished. Speaking of finishes Icarus has fifth teen wins by TKO. Lothbrok has only had three fights in his career and he is currently two and one. He won both fights by TKO and lost his fight by TKO. He will be looking to keep this fight standing so he can use his amazing boxing to his advantage.
Prediction: Icarus wins by TKO in round number 3
Preliminary Bout Number 4- Bantamweight Fight (135lbs)
bj "Boogieman" Ferguson (31-18) {3-3} versus Isaiah "Vanilla Gorilla" Ferguson (7-1) {1-1}
Ferguson is thirty one and eighteen in his career and he is three and three in Honor Fighting Championship. Ferguson will be looking to get the fight to the ground but he will need to be careful to not get submitted since Isaiah is the better Jiu Jitsu fighter. Isaiah also has the advantage in the standup so Isaiah will be happy to standup or go to the ground. This will be tough fight to pick since both fighters are managed by the same manager.
Prediction: Isaiah Ferguson wins by submission in round number 2
Preliminary Bout Number 5- Featherweight Fight (145lbs)
Todd Flanders (17-12-1) {2-2} versus "Pretty Pete" Peter Parker (24-14) {1-3}
This is a rematch in witch Flanders won in their first meeting. Flanders won the fight quickly getting the win in the first round in less than one minute. Flanders will look to overwhelm Parker once again, and Parker will try to just weather the storm. If Parker can get past the first flurry of strikes he will have a great chance to win this fight, but he has struggled with aggressive fighters in the past.
Prediction: Flanders wins by TKO in round number 1
Main Card Bout Number 1- Welterweight Fight (170lbs)
Rock "Taijutsu" Lee (6-3) {5-3} versus Alex "Almighty" Irwin (4-2) {3-2}
Lee has struggled against the new champion at Welterweight and he will be looking to get some good fights in to improve himself so he can get another shot. The former champion dropped the title to Hrcak and then lost a second bout against him when he was looking to regain the title. Now we will get to see what Lee looks like after taking two losses in a row, and I am sure I wouldn’t want to be standing on the other side of the cage against him right now. Irwin is four and two and he will be looking to jump the ranks by beating a former champion of the division. To do so he will need to take a page out of the book of Hrcak but the real question is can he even come close? I think he can, and this should be a great fight and very competitive.
Prediction: Lee wins by TKO in round number 3
Main Card Bout Number 2- Welterweight Fight (170lbs)
Rickson Bravo (8-5) {3-1} versus Bobby "The Next Big Thing" Shamrock (6-4) {2-3}
Bravo has won his last three fights after losing his debut to HFC. He won the last two by submission and one by decision giving his a total of seven wins by submission out of eight total wins. Clearly Bravo will be looking to turn this into a ground battle with Shamrock. Bobby is on of my favorites in Honor even with his misfortune as of late. He has lost his last three fights but out of his four losses he has never been submitted. Shamrock is a wrestler and he will want to take Bravo to the ground so this will test his submission defense for sure.
Prediction: Bravo wins by decision after round number 3
Main Card Bout Number 3- Featherweight Fight (145lbs)
"THE KING" Oliver Queen (20-14) {3-1} versus "The Assassin Reborn" Darwin France (21-7) {1-2}
This is a funny situation as Queen has a great HFC record and an average overall record while France has a great record but a bad HFC record. Queen was recently dropped by his manager and that could have a huge effect on him, and as of right now he has nobody to work his corner. France might want to play some head games with Queen because of it and mix his attack more than he has in the past since mid-round adjustments are not going to happen.
Prediction: France wins by submission in round number 2
Co Main Event Main Card Bout Number 4- Lightweight Fight (155lbs)
"THE MAGIC MAN" Mustafa Al Turk (31-12-2) {0-1} versus "Flash" Gordon Lefleaur (31-11) {1-0}
This will be a rematch from not too long ago. Both of these fighters last fights where each other and they have decided to hook it up again. Lefleaur won the fight by TKO late in the second round after he dominated in the clinch. Gordon will be looking for the clinch again in this one as Al Turk will need to pull a rabbit out of his hat to win this one.
Prediction: Lefleaur wins by TKO in round number 1
Main Event Main Card Bout Number 5- Welterweight Title Fight (170lbs)
"Veliki" Ljuti Hrcak (15-1) {4-1} versus "The Impaler" Vladimir Ignatov (7-2-1) {3-0}
Hrcak has been a force to be reckoned with in his career. He is not only the welterweight champion in HFC but he is also the holder of a fifth teen and one record. His only loss came against Bobby Shamrock who upset him not to long agao. If Hrcak defends his title and Shamrock gets a win these two could be on a collision course to have another fight, only this time it would be for the title. Ignatov is three and o in Honor and he has a win over Shamrock so it would only make since that he would be next in line. All three of his Honor wins have come by TKO and he will look to add a fourth win to his resume and a Honor Fighting Championship Welterweight Title to it as well. This should be a great back and forth fight and it will be incredibly difficult to pick a winner.
Prediction: Ignatov wins by TKO in round number 3
