Dynasty MMA weekend Wrap recap
And New Heavyweight Champion of the World Jason Hightower!
Jason Hightower just made it out of the DMMA 98 alive, as then champion Andrei Kersikov was trying to rally late in the fight. Hightower was taking charge through out the first three rounds of the contest, with pin point accuracy and a stellar clinch game. Kersikov came out for round four with a new intensity in his eyes though, and blood trickling out of his nose. He knew he needed to do something big. Round four ended in a highly contested outing for both fighters, and the momentum seemed to switch over to the champion. Jason knew he was up on the cards though as did the champ. and all Hightower needed to do was stay calculated and not make any mistakes. Kersikov though was ready to batter the challenger, and finish the fight. At the 3 minute mark he nearly did so, landing a vicious Uppercut to Hightower sending him to the mat. As Kersikov waves the ref to stand him up, Hightower took a deep breath and regained his composure. Kersikov went back to the attack but there just wasn't enough time at this point. Jason did a great job of avoiding any further damage. Scorecards where read and all three judges scored the bout 47:48 for the Winner and New Heavyweight Champion Jason Hightower.
Hightower now has a offer to meet Bento Barboza in there Highly anticipated rematch, with the former champ Andrei Kersikov breathing down both there necks ready to get himself back into this dance.
DMMA Hall of Famer Tucker returns to his Dominant ways!
Charles Tucker showed up ready for war and redemption, as he battered his opponent Brock Hardman in round one scoring a Knockdown from a niece two-piece combo along the way. Round two started with more of the same, and with just 47 seconds gone by "Trip" unleashes a brutal uppercut that sends his foe to the mat once again. Tucker motions to the ref to stand him up, and right on que Hardman ducks right into another devastating uppercut to end his night. This was a much needed win for Charles, who had lost his previous two fights. Tucker now finds himself right back in the mix at 205, with some of the Dynasty elite.
The Rectal Thermometer tests another one running a bit DEAD cold this weekend.
Thermometer made short work of his opposition Saturday night at DMMA 98. He overwhelmed former Blaze Middleweight champ Eric Distefano. This fight ended at the 2:48 mark in round 1, after Rectal cut his foe open and then rocked him with a crisp jab, which left the opening for the Killshot. Rectal Thermometer took full advantage of it with a thunderous shot to the temple. Eric was a trooper though and wanted to continue, but the ref had seen enough.
Thermometer looks to have a date with Gwynn Evans next, in what looks to be a #1 Contender fight potentially.
Kaupens picks up a victory and now awaits his well-deserved title fight.
In a clear cut #1 contender fight the Latvian Superstar Ansis Kaupens upends former DMMA Middleweight champion Ray Luciano by Unanimous Decision. Accuracy was slightly in favor of "Lucky" Ray, while Ansis had a clear advantage in volume. This was a close fight to call in my Opinion, but I think the judges got it right. Yet none of the Judges had it scored the same. They did however all see it going to the Winner Ansis Kaupens. Ansis is now the winner of 3 straight and finds himself as the next challenger for the Middleweight championship.
So now Ansis just waits for the Champion which will be declared on 04-24, as Champion Kareem Johnson Meets Challenger Macca Ouback.
Bad Blood is boiling after a close split Decision leads to a new Lightweight Champion.
The Lightweight Championship fight was a complete barn burner, as tempers begin to flare in the One-Man Wolfpack clubhouse. Champion Xylon Kofel Feels he did enough to regain his title, but two out of three judges saw it differently, giving the fight to challenger Aubrey Grant. This fight was every bit of the none stop action it was hyped to be, with both fighters throwing everything including the kitchen sink at there opponent. Judging this one round by round has to be a Nightmare, as they where all so evenly contested and it showed with the scorecards being split. Judge Andrew Berry gave it to Grant 46:49, Judge Steven Brown Scored 48:47 for Kofel, and Chris Edwards scored the contest 46:50 for the new champ Aubrey Grant.
Douche T. McBaggins had a chance to speak briefly with both competitors after the fight, and this is where things got even more exciting. Former Champion Xylon Kofel was first to head into the Backstage area.
McBaggins: Xylon, hey mate you got a second.
Kofel: Douche, this shit is garbage ass shit, I won that fight did I not?
McBaggins: Oh yes, absolutely, that's what I saw. You got utterly screwed Xylon!
Kofel: I mean, two of those judges must have been snorting whippets before the fight or some shit. Total brain Damage.
McBaggings: It was a fun fight though, nothing to be ashamed of man.
Kofel: Exciting or not, I just got screwed as you said. Douche I want my belt back.
McBaggins: You have been a Dominate champ, and after a fight like that I think you deserve a rematch.
Kofel: Well I should have never lost it! The DMMA front office better send a fight offer immediately, or shit may go down in the parking lot!!!
A lively Aubrey Grant steps through the Back stage curtains, as Douch flags him down.
McBaggins: Hey champ, how does it feel to hold that strap?
Grant: It feels insane, this is the biggest win in my life
McBaggins: I don't want to be a Douggy downer here mate, but Kofel feels he was robbed. Do you think the Judges got it right?
Grant: The man say he feels he win the fight, but the judges see it my way. I am the champion. If I need another five rounds to make him understand this then no problem.
McBaggins: Can't argue with that, champ.
Grant: Who do you think won Doucher?
McBaggins: Aubrey Grant all day, there is no doubt.
Grant: Good man, Time for the after party Douche. Peace!!!
It is official fans, Grant vs Kofel is already inked and will take place 05-15 at DMMA 105. The tensions seem to be rising here as there has even been talks of managers splitting from there alliances. Squirrely Dan and Alfredo Gonzalez have some legit beef with there two fight camps facing of in several upcoming fights. Recently departed One Man Wolfpack member and current Head Honcho of Dynasty Tycoon Judas has welcomed either to take a breather and join his newly formed Alliance the Next Gen Wolfpack, until this Bad blood boils over.
Barboza seals the deal, leaving the DMMA Cage crew a bloody mess to clean up.
The DMMA 99 Main Event was fun, if you like blood but it ended prematurely unfortunately. Give credit to the victor though, as his Clinch and Elbows ultimately were, surging Heavyweight Prospect Pete Tylers downfall. Tyler played the role of the aggressor while Barboza was sitting back waiting for his opening early in round one. Tyler was opened up by Bento's first strike which was a razor sharp Hook. Once the fight hit the clinch though, was where the gushing began. The already leaky cut was wrecked with a slicing elbow. Then even further stretched with a Uppercut right on the button. The ref halts the fight temporarily so Dr. Will Tickel, can get a close look at this Cut.He took one glance and saw how deep it was, then immediately waves off the fight. Pete Tyler is outraged by this, and Sends Dr. Tickel through the cage door. While flicking off his Main event opponent Bento Barboza.
This may have not went the exact way Barboza or the DMMA brash would have liked, but the much anticipated rubber match between Hightower and Barboza is now set.
Mark your calendars Dynasty fans. 05-15 will be absolutely life changing, Grant vs Kofel 2 and Hightower vs Barboza 3. wheeww im gonna get wasted that nigh I can already feel the hangover from this one.
