 Ladies and Gentlemen, MMA fans from around the globe. I present you with TTFC Phichai vs. Milat! What is set up to be an action packed evening at Madison Garden Arena! Nathan Norman here, breaking down our main event for this evening which will be Phraya “The Broken Sword” Phichai taking on Ivan Milat for the TTFC 185lbs title!
But first, our Preliminary Card fights for this evening, which see 10 fighters looking to make a name for themselves here in the TTFC! Tonight is their big opportunity to make their points proven to themselves, TTFC and all MMA fans who are tuning in! Let’s get started!!
Our first preliminary fight this evening sees Anthony “pyscho white” Burgess (27-20-3) take on Arvel Garnett (8-14-1)! Anthony Burgess has definitely got the in-ring experience to make an impact here tonight! He has multiple awards including KO of the night, which may give him the edge over the struggling Arvel Garnett. Not recording a victory in his past 7 fights, Garnett will be looking to change that luck around here tonight! However, if Garnett can use his expertise in BJJ, I believe Burgess will have no choice but to be frustratingly controlled and submitted! Garnett by submission in round 2.
On to our next preliminary fight, where Rory “Lionheart” Lyons (19-13-0) will take on Ardian “The pedophile” Shiba (11-11-1)! After coming off 2 devastating decision losses recently, Lyons will be training harder than ever to retain his winning ways. But to do so, he will have to take out Ardian Shiba, who has won 2 from his past 3 fights. This is definitely going to be a tight battle, 2 all-rounded fighters clashing horns! This fight could go anywhere at any point in time! This fight is too close to call as they are 2 fighters with almost identical statistics! However, I will be placing my prediction on the fan favourite in Rory Lyons with a decision.
Our next battle for this evening, is between Achilles “The Spartan Warrior” Leonidas (9-11-0) slugging it out against “Master” Scott Gouken *17-11-1)! After having 2 disappointing defeats recently against tough and highly skilled opponents, Achilles Leonidas will be looking to leave that behind him by taking on Scott Gouken, who is known for his knock out power! 14 from his 17 victories have come by way of knock out. Gouken also holds multiple KO of the night awards which looks pretty impressive. However, if this fight stays on their feet, I believe Leonidas will be far too dominant. Having never been knocked out, and showing everyone that he has the ability to mix it up in any discipline, Scott Gouken just won’t be able to keep up! However, if it turns in to a grappling fight, it’s anybody’s fight. Leonidas by round 1 knock out.
Next on the cards, we have “The Weather Man” Brick Tamland (11-7-0) taking on “Hagamannen” Fredrik Meduza (12-6-0)! Tamland’s recent victory could be the beginning of the rise of a great fighter. Coming off 3 defeats prior to that, this is Tamland’s biggest test, to prove to himself that his last victory wasn’t a “one-off” win! He takes on an opponent who is trying to turn things around after a tough few months, especially after a recent early knock out defeat against White Goodman! Both fighters look so similar on paper, it’s hard to find that definitive factor which will conclude with a victor. All I know is that this is going to be a bloodbath! With both fighters leaving their all in the cage to prove to everybody that they have what it takes to take on the best! My prediction will be a coin flip, I’m going to say Brick Tamland by decision.
Finishing off our Preliminary Card for the evening, Matt Freeman (16-9-0) will compete against Osmo “Killer” Keinänen in what looks to be another tight contest! Matt Freeman has won both his fights here in the TTFC by decision. Can he make a statement by finishing his opponent, Osmo Keinänen, who is co-incidentally running a 0-2 record in the TTFC and needs to pick up a win to turn his professional fighting career around! I believe this will be a fight which both fighters will want to keep off the floor, creating one hell of a contest! I also believe history will continue here in the TTFC! Freeman by decision.
On to our Main Card for this evening! And what a way to set the tone, with “Pedigree” German Shephard (7-2-0), looking to continue his run of good form against an inconsistent "The Assasin" Amirezza Pourramenazanali (12-9-0). Shephard is coming off 4 straight wins, notably his last bout against Achilles Leonidas in the TTFC where it was awarded “Fight of the Night”! Can this momentum be enough to topple his opponent in Pourramenazanali? His BJJ skills shined 2 fights back where he picked up “Submission of the Night”. He also seems to outclass Shephard standing up, which will play a contributing factor in this bout! If Shephard can get in close and control Pourramenazanali, then he may have a chance to take it out. However, I feel like Pourramenazanali’s stand up ability will prove be the factor which will send him home with the victory! Pourramenazanali by round 2 knock out.
Easing closer towards our Main Event! But first, we have the opportunity to see a true test of skill. “Prawn Star” Yo-Landi Vi$$er (21-14-0) wants to make to 2 in a row in the TTFC against the rising star, “A Boy Named” Jutta Urpilainen (17-7-3)! Coming off a tight victory in his last bout, Yo-Landi Vi$$er is definitely wanting to show fans around the world why he deserves a title shot! He can do this by finishing his opponent, Jutta Urpilainen! That is no easy task as Urpilainen is convincingly finishing his opponents, receiving a Knock-out of the Night award and Submission of the Night award in his past 2 bouts! He is on fire at the moment and I think Vi$$er will be the one to extinguish this one tonight! This will definitely be a slug-fest, however I believe Vi$$er has Urpilainen blatantly out-classed. Vi$$er by round 1 knock out.
Next on the main card, Cletus Landry (12-5-0) has gone undefeated from his 4 TTFC bouts with 3 of them coming by knock-out! He will take on Rufus Speed (18-7-0) who has won 4 from his past 5, and will be urging to make it another victory! Landry seems to have it all going for him at the moment, taking home Knock-out of the Night award in his previous encounter and having a 4 fight win streak! He has showed everybody that he can be in title contention, however he must take out Rufus Speed if he wants an opportunity to rise to the top! Speed has looked quite impressive lately, however he is looking for that definitive victory if he is going to get anywhere near that 145lbs title belt! I’m going to take a gamble and predict Landry to take this one out. He has the hot-streak against highly skilled opponents, and I believe he has the heart and determination to make it 5 from 5! Landry by decision.
And now! On to our co-main event of the evening! This fight is set up to be a blockbuster! 2 veterans on TTFC face off in the hopes to move on to a 265+lbs title fight! First up, Convicted Killer (15-6-0) has had some up and down form since losing his 265+ title against Daniel Silva. In saying that, Killer has shown the TTFC universe that he is capable of putting on a show, taking home 2 awards for Knock-out of the Night and 1 Fight of the Night award in the TTFC alone. True finishing power as he has stopped all but 1 of his opponents before the judges. 14 knock-out victories from 15 is pretty impressive, but only letting 1 opponent touch the 3rd round means that this fight could be over before you know it! Will Killer be able to continue that reign of destruction against an opponent who will be determined to turn things around? Russell “Sweetness” Jacobs (30-23-0) is coming off 3 straight round one knock-out defeats. Jacobs will be looking to get back in to title contention after recently losing his 265lbs title belt to Ben Grimm! However, Jacobs has shown that he has true knock-out ability, ending 19 from 30 wins by knock-out. This is the fight which determines Jacob’s fate, will he continue the downward spiral of defeat? Or will he be able to move back to winning form for the chance to re-gain championship status? I believe Convinced Killer will be looking to keep this fight off the floor and use his clear fighting ability against Russell Jacobs. I will be going with the fan favourite for this one. Killer with a 2nd round Knock-out.
Ok fight fans! This is it, the moment that we have been all waiting for! The TTFC 185lbs title contest between two combatants who have made themselves known here in the TTFC! First up, the challenger, Ivan Milat (29-18-1) who has been juggling between weight divisions since losing the 185lbs title recently against Karl Socha. Milat is highly advanced in all disciplines of mixed martial arts. After claiming victory recently in the 205lbs division, Milat is looking to move back to where he started. And what a way to make an impact! Straight off the bat, getting his well-deserved title shot. Milat definitely has the in-ring experience to pull this victory out of the bag, this being his 49th cage fight! All that is standing in his way towards a second reign at the title belt, the 185lbs TTFC champion! Phraya “The Broken Sword” Phichai! With an astounding 6 wins in a row! Phichai definitely knows how to score points and win a fight, as 5 of these past 6 is coming from the judge’s decision. We all know Phichai can go the distance, being involved in many long and tough fights, this will be a long and entertaining championship bout! On paper it is so close to be confident with a prediction on who will win! However, I believe we might be seeing the reign of Phraya Phichai go for just that little bit longer. I believe the confidence boost of recently winning the championship belt on top of 6 straight victories will give Milat a run for his money. Nonetheless, this will be an electrifying fight and the atmosphere will be running wild as these 2 competitors square off to leave their blood, sweat and tears in the cage where the TTFC 185lbs champion will be crowned! Phichai by decision.
Ladies and Gentlemen, here are you 10 fights in the TTFC Phichai vs. Milat. What are your thoughts? Who will be crowned the TTFC 185lbs champion? I’ve had my say, now it’s time to have yours! This is going to be one action packed event. Without further ado, let’s get it on!
