Hello everybody,
Last night CMMA 17 took place at The Underground in Los Angeles. Another entertaining evening of fights! We had 2 fights going to a decision and the rest of the fights ended with a finish. Here is a short recap of the main fights.
In the main event we had Fernandino Branca (4-1), a amazing wrestler and notorious for his vicious GnP taking on undefeated brown belt Theo Long (2-0). It was no suprise this fight would quickly go to the ground to see who's skills reigned supreme. It was Long who got the takedown to put Branca on his back! Branca went for a submission but Long defended well and went for submissions himself. Branca showed some nice grappling as he was able to get a reversal so he got on top to try to land his vicious GnP. Long didnt give Branca the time and space to land GnP, Long went for submission after submission..... It took a few attempts but he got Branca in a tight guillotine in the very 1st round! Theo Long is now 3-0, all submission victories in the 1st round. Congratulations Theo Long on the impressive win!
In the co-main event we had Quellon Blacksea (6-0-1) vs Marian Bartos (2-0) for the 265lbs title! Quellons 1st title fight ended up in a dissapointing draw. So tonight he had his 2nd chance to win the title. He is known for his heavy punches, Alll his finished come by (T)KO in the 1st round! But in his way was Marian Bartos, an undefeated grappler with a brown belt in jiu jitsu. Bartos was determined to test Blacksea's ground skills as Bartos knew he had the advantage on the ground. As the fight started Bartos immediately went for takedowns but was countered by Blacksea's heavy shots. Bartos was hurt early on and Blacksea has such a great killer instinct that he went for the kill. A brutal uppercut KO'ed Bartos, and he was out before he hit the floor! Another quick finish for Blacksea, and finally he got the belt he deserves! Congratulations Quellon Blacksea on becoming California MMA's 1st heavyweight champion!!
Please check out the other fights, there were also very entertaining. Hope to see you all soon again at California MMA.
