Facebook Fight


Welterweight Bout


Stowall Jackson v Atticus Finch


This will be the last fight, before entering the main part of tonight’s event. Two impressive 25 years old fighters will be the guarantee of entertaining show: owner of 4-1 professional MMA record, derived from Exington, United States - Stowall Jackson, will face amazing Canadian from Montreal - still unbeaten after his 3 professional MMA fights Atticus Finch. They are one of the most succesful and respected warriors among Sliders FC rankings, and it seems that we should shortly see them in more important parts of events. But let’s focus on upcoming fight. Stowall Jackson - high class boxer with solid wrestling skills, seems to be unfortunately an underdog in upcoming fight against similar skilled wrestler derived from grappling- the brown belt owner from Canada. In situations like this, the grappler should be always the favorite, but we are afraid, that Finch may have really serious problems in any other area of MMA, especially involving striking, so we must wait with our predictions until the fight.


 
Jacob What prediction: Finch SUB R2
 
Main Card
Heavyweight Bout
Kenny Powers v Andres King
In this Main Card fight, two 25 years old fighters are waiting to show us their skills: American from Backyard - Kenny ‘Fuggen’ Powers, and Andres King, derived from Ecuadorian Quito. Powers has already shown some solid skills in his 1 won and 2 lost professional fights, but Ecuadorian warrior will be the absolute debutant tonight. ‘Fuggen’ is  an international level boxer with trully solidly developed wrestling skills, and his opponents had great and succesful wrestling career before switching to MMA. As we have heard, he has already trained at Muay Thai Fighting School to sensible level, but this fight will be a test for him, as ultimate fighter.
 
Jacob What prediction: King TKO R1
 
Main Card
Welterweight Bout
Jack McDaniels v Raphael Sanchos
Next fight will be fought by two 25 years old strikers, who are considered to have very similar skills and fighting styles. Owner of 3-2 professional MMA record, Jack ‘Big Mac’ McDaniels from Topeka, United States, will face tonight’s MMA debutant- Brazilian Raphael Sanchos, from Curitiba. It should be equal fight, but it’s very hard to get any further, as we are actually talking about debuting fighter. Anyway, ‘Big Mac’ has already proven, that he is solid MMA fighter, and we should take it as guarantee of good level fight awaiting us.
 
Jacob What prediction: McDaniels DEC
 
Co-Main Event
Light Heavyweight Bout
Darryl Maxwell v Ivan Wolfar
In Co-Main Event of the Night, we will have an opportunity to watch promising 25 years old fighter, who has lost his only MMA debut- englishman Darryl ‘The Demon’ Maxwell from Hebburn. His tonight’s event will be much higher rated in MMA World, 23 years old Ivan Wolfar, born in London, but fighting under Serbian flag. As Maxwell has an opinion to be very nice grappler with some decent boxing and wrestling skills, we didn’t see much of him yet. And Ivan Wolfar, who is clear favorite of tonight’s fight, has absolutely proven his value after 7 wins and 2 losses in his surprisingly succesful beginning of career. Anyway, tonight it should be nice test of his skills, as maybe he is international level boxer, we don’t know much about his grappling, yet- and this is definitely the way, how ‘The Demon’ will try to hunt down his oponent tonight..
 
Jacob What prediction: MAXWELL SUB R3
 
Main Event
Middleweight Bout
Vladimir Shlemenko v The Daxter
 
In tonight’s main event of the night will participate two great, still unbeaten 25 years old professional MMA talents: Vladimir ‘Storm’ Shlemenko from Russian Omsk, and The Dexter coming from Erfurt, Germany. Both have started their MMA professional careers very promising, winning 3 and 2 times respectively, all on small MMA events. ‘Storm’ is tonight’s favorite, as both has shown already in past some solid skills, Dexter’s gameplan is definitely based rather on his boxing, and Shlemenko is world class wrestler, what should give him way bigger advantage during the fight, than anything else tonight.
 
Jacob What prediction: SHLEMENKO TKO R1
