 Hello Outlaws, roughnecks, hooligans and lone wolves! Today, I am very excited to get a jump on things as we break down the first round of our 170 Showdown! This is the championship tournament series that will crown our first ever Outlaw Martial Combat champion of the 205 division!
More importantly than that to some of these degenerates is the $1 million reward that accompanies 1st place along with that strap of leather! And just for shits and grins, we've even added a 250k prize to the runner up that makes it to the finals! So get your brass knuckles, steel toed boots, spiked knee pads and whatever the hell else you want and get ready to throw down in the cage with some of the baddest up and coming new generation of fighters the MMA world has to offer! Let us officially establish our slogan by taking the words from our MC brethren.. "Expect No Mercy"
When I came out of Organizational retirement, I considered going back to HFC. But it just didn't seem right. That organization has it's own legacy now, and I truly hope that legacy carries on for years to come under new ownership. But I had new ideas, new goals, a new dream. What I originally wanted in HFC had morphed into a life of it's own, and I found myself walking a different path. That path led me to start over, from scratch, and bring a new light (or darkness) to the MMAT universe. An Outlaw was born.
Outlaw M.C. is and will be everything I envisioned a true fight or die organization to be. The Bounty system is a way for all fighters and managers to participate in something greater, something more. Everyone has divisions, champions, and gold. We have that, and more. Our open weight division will represent the true badasses of the organization who are not afraid to put it all on the line against anyone, anywhere, anytime. Check out the forums for more info on this system, or our website at www.OutlawCombat.world.
Now, enough of the roots, and on to the good shit!
But first, let's let our local sponsor blow some smoke!

Are you ready to RUMBLE Show No MERCY!!!????
We have filled this card out with a solid 10 fights, but we will start with the warriors who will step foot into the cage to establish their dominance and a shot at that $1 million prize!
Round 1
Dean Winchester vs Cole Orion
Winchester comes into this fight with an edge in wrestling, but giving up a significant edge in boxing and a slight edge in MT. Neither fighter seems to give a rats ass about BJJ, but you never know what these crazy bastards may try to pull in the cage. When a mill is on the line, anything goes! Orion is the bigger fighter with a reach advantage which will make it a little more difficult for Winchester to get close and try to engage his wrestling skills. No doubt Orion will look to keep this fight at a distance and pick his opponent apart. But, this fight could go either way as these guys are both new to the game and hell, with Winchester's supernatural talents and Orion's third eye, this is surely a fight that we can expect the unexpected!
King Cooper vs Toke Axelsen
Cooper, much to the dismay of Winchester and Orion, comes into this fight looking to show off his BJJ skills against a fighter who appears to be a clinch specialist. It's hard to say with no fight history to speak of, but Axelsen has the edge in both MT and Wrestling giving up only the edge in BJJ. Crazy thing about BJJ is the ability to pull guard from clinch, so Axelsen will have to be weary of that move in this fight. But who knows, perhaps Axelsen is a MT striker who just has some wrestling skills to avoid that takedown? Both fighters are similar in size with only a 1cm and 2lb weight difference between them. This is your classic striker vs grappler bout and could go either way. Cooper will obviously need to get the fight to the ground to have a chance here, so the fight will start off in Axelsen's favor. But, should they go to the ground, expect no mercy from Cooper!
Raining Blood vs Moe Telsiks
Raining Blood... what an epic fucking name? Talk about an Outlaw name? This guys should get a fucking trophy just for that! He is an ugly mug too, so very fitting! Blood comes into this fight towering over his opponent with a whopping 25cm height difference! Are you kidding me? These guys both weight in at 170 walking, so only the height difference between them. But what a reach advantage that will be for Blood! It will server him well as he uses his excellent MT skills to take on Telsiks with his Wrestling background. Blood is no slouch wrestler, but nowhere near the level of talent that Telsiks is when it comes to that area. Neither of these guys give a shit about BJJ or Boxing, so we could be in for some cinch fests or some brutal knees/elbows, or who knows.. with that reach advantage, Blood may just stay outside and try to pick apart Telsiks. What we do know? Is that Telsiks will want to take this fight to the ground as fast as possible to prevent that from happening. Another great battle of striker vs grappler, but Blood seems to have several advantages in this first round matchup and may prove to be a Bloody nightmare for opponents going forward if he comes out of this one on top. If butterbean, err.. I mean Telsiks comes out on top, I expect he'll be throwing his weight around.
Beanin Jiet vs Mohammed Abul
Abul comes into this fight with a 9cm height advantage, and a little bulkier than Jiet, but these guys are not far apart in overall size/weight. Beyond that, these two are seemingly mirror images of each other on the skill front. Neither guy has an advantage over the other in any area of the fight and I expect this fight to be a FotN contender from the start! Both fighters are well versed in MT and working on their wrestling to accompany it, and their managers know each other well. Not much I can say about this fight except to expect fireworks boys! Let's get it on, and get ready for these two to show no mercy!
That's the end of our tournament line up, now let's take a quick peek at some of the other fights filling out this card.
265
Bogdan Kireyev vs Cedric Pollard
These are two of our older fights in the org as both of these dude come in at the age of 25 and a little more skilled than some of the young guys in our tournament. Don't worry, not for long, but for now, these guys are the hard hitting guys we can expect some KO's from! Kireyev and Pollard match up about as even as you can get with neither having a skill advantage over the other in any area. Pollard has a height advantage and will give him a slight reach advantage so maybe that comes into play, but don't expect Kireyev to lay down in this one. Neither fighter has tasted defeat and Kireyev has won two fights to Pollards one. Did I mention both guys have finished their opponents in each fight? Don't expect that to change, someone has to lose, but these guys don't show any mercy and someone will be going to sleep in this one. Looking like a set up for a KO of the Night nominee!
Jesse James vs Remco Evenpoel
Two more heavyweights going at it as Outlaw Jesse James squares off against Evenpoel! James is a bigger fighter with a height and weight advantage, but Evenpoel will likely look to use his smaller frame to be a little quicker and try to outwork James. Both fighters have one their only fight and both by (T)KO, so another fight I expect to see end with a finish. But, when it comes to the method to their madness, these fighters are very different.
James is a grappler who will use his GNP to beat your face in like Tito Ortiz on top of a rag doll clone of Chuck Liddell. He's got the grappling skills in both Wrestling and BJJ to finish a fight on the ground, and even though he hasn't flashed a submission, we know he can for sure TKO a fighter on the ground. Evenpoel prefers to stay standing as his huge MT advantage will be his bread and butter as he tries to keep the fight on the feet and look for the traditional KO. Not sure if that will be a punch to the grill or a kick to the temple, but he will be looking to stay standing and put his opponent down. Hell, he could try to clinch up and throw some knees and elbows, but not sure he wants to get in close to James like that.
205
Apollinaire Aury vs Thomas Smith
Back to our 18 year old's and our Light Heavyweight division where we have two young bloods squaring off with vastly differing skills. Both are about the same height with Smith holding a 5lb weight advantage, but Aury sports a huge Wrestling advantage and a decent BJJ edge over Smith. Smith, however, has a MT edge and has been working on his boxing a bit. Surely he will be looking to keep this fight standing because going to the mat with Aury will spell disaster. If he can keep it standing and be accurate, and avoid the takedown, he's got a good shot to pull this one off. But Aury will be looking to go down hard and fast and take no prisoners and put Smith away.
170
Playboi Guerrero vs Enrique Castillo
Guerrero comes in with a slight size advantage to accompany his wrestling advantage, but the buck stops there. Outside of that, this fight is lopsided the other way for Castillo when it comes down to skill progression. Castillo has a significant edge in boxing and MT and will look to use that to pick apart Guerrero from range. He could choose to clinch up, but that will open a door for Guerrero to get this fight to the ground in his comfort zone where at that point, anything could happen when he starts snaking in submission attempts. Neither of these fighters have fought before, so nobody knows what to really expect here. This will be a good test for each of these guys.
Manny Shooter vs Angus Morrison
Another bout at 170 and another huge difference in fighter builds. Shooter is the much taller, bulkier fighter of the two and that should help him pack a mean punch, but Morrison will likely be lighter on his feet. Morrison will be putting his MT to the test against an excellent boxer, but also boasts an advantage in the BJJ game. Interestingly enough, we have a boxer/wrestler going up against a MT/BJJ guy. Almost like a Randy Couture vs an Anderson Silva.. before they were any good... If either one of these guys can live up to that billing, we'll have some future starts on our hands at the 170 division!
Caio Carvalho vs Marty Corninger
And our final fight preview of this evening will be between the two C-words! No, you dirty minded bastards, Carvalho and Corninger! Both come in about the same height with Carvalho being a little heavier. Corninger has a significant edge in boxing, but aside from that these two are nearly even in skills down the board. That doesn't really bode well for Carvalho as he doesn't have a significant edge in any skill in this one. Maybe management can out coach the other side, but this looks to be a tough fight for Carvalho. Now, we are still a week away, but Corninger looks to be training hard and has his energy way down. This could be the opening Carvalho needs to get an edge.
This is just the beginning Outlaws! These write ups will get better with time as we learn more about our fighters and start to build a history. We're always looking to bring in new talent so bring your friends over so you can whoop their asses! We are hoping for a new wave of talent in a few months when the "cookers" decide they want to come play.
Until next time...
Show No MERCY!!!
