Fighting Warriors Championship
2016-02-20, Montreal, The Underground - Montreal
Author:Lucas Veigne

LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT: Nicolas "Nico" Gracie (2-0-0) vs. Sterling "The Vice President " Nixon (2-1-0)
 
In this match up, both fighters will be making their FWC debuts. This is Nixon's first appearance in a professional org. Nico is the first Gracie we have seen here at FWC. He boasts a brown belt in BJJ, and will be looking to get a sub from there. He has a first round sub in both of his first two fights. Nixon is a remarkable wrestler, but finds himself outmatched if he takes it to the ground. Nixon wil be looking to use his wrestling skills to avoid the ground game and land some strikes.
 
Prediction: Gracie wins by submission
 
 
LIGHTWEIGHT: Jamar “The Snake” Lullard (3-0-0) vs. “Lunch Money “Owen Whipple (4-4-0)
 
Jamar Lullard is coming into this fight undefeated after winning his first pro fight. He’s making his FWC debut.  Whipple comes into this fight after breaking his losing streak in stunning fashion, with a first round armbar. Whipple has great BJJ skill and will be trying to get Lullard to the ground and make him tap.
 
Prediction: Whipple wins by Submission
 
BANTAMWEIGHT: Danny “Dominator” Jones (0-0-0) vs. Ryan Wallace (5-3-0)
 
Danny Jones will be making his MMA debut against Wallace who will be making his FWC debut. With so much competition in the division a win will be crucial to get a title shot. Both fighters will be trying to get takedowns and use their BJJ, so don’t expect to see a standing fight. 
 
Prediction: Wallace wins by Decision
 
LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT: Isaiah Towns (1-1-0) vs. Jay “Slick” Mosby (2-1-0)
 
Both fighters are coming off disappointing losses in their previous fights. Towns is a great Muay Thai fighter and Mosby is a boxer, so expect a knockout from this fight. Mosby lost his title in his last fight so he is looking for redemption. Towns will be looking to beat the former champion and move up the division rankings.
 
Prediction: Mosby wins by Submission 
 
BANTAMWEIGHT CO-MAIN EVENT: Wei Liu (2-2-0) vs. Chris “Beanpole” Fuller (9-3-0) 2
 
In our co main event Wei Liu looks for a rematch against Fuller after being knocked out in the last fight. Fuller will enjoy a 14cm height advantage. It seems Liu’s only chance of winning is if he takes it to the ground and makes Fuller tap. If Fuller wins, he will be the #1 ranked contender for Hannu Haapana’s title.
 
Prediction: Fuller wins by Submission
 
MIDDLEWEIGHT MAIN EVENT: Jason “The Grease” Garlo (2-0-0) vs. Tyler “SuperMan” Gomaz (3-1-0)
 
In our main event the first FWC WORLD MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE will be on the line. Jason Garlo comes  into this fight after he beat Hamish Moby in his first fight, and in the rematch. SuperMan is making his FWC debut and is also coming off a win in QFC. The winner of this fight will be the king of the division and will be up against fighters like Johnny Danielson and Ralph Machio, to defend the title. For the fighter's styles, Gomaz has superior boxing but Garlo is more of a rounded fighter. We’ll see which approach will help the fighters come out on top.
 
Prediction: Gomaz by TKO
