 Live from the Hard Knocks Arena in Los Angeles Cali Torment MMA-LA brings out the guns for WOTLA 12. The Superheavyweight Challenge will be underway as well as are Middleweight Simi-Finals. So break out your favorite alcohaulic beverages and get prepaired for some Arse whoopin action. And if the fat guy in the front row talking trash won't shut up we here at Torment LA insist, knock his ass out. Now let's get things started with some prelim action.
Prelim Bouts
Reece Johnson (1-2-0) Vs. Targathian "T-Rex" Rex (1-2-0)
Kicking the show off are the Heavyweights and two dudes looking for there first win in the stacked division. Reece is ready to get back in the cage after two losses to Stan Burton. Johnson is a boxer with Knock out power, he will want to keep it standing and use his money makers to put away his foe. Rex a Jiu-Jitsu practioner who likes to brawl will be trying to get this fight to the ground early. Though his boxing is not to bad Reece clearly has the advantage there and it is a known fact that "T-Rex is a bleeder.
Eugene "The Troll" Moloch (1-0-0) Vs. Big Ben (2-3-0)
In another Heavyweight bout Eugene Moloch is set to make his retirement after his battle with Big Ben. Moloch is only 1-0 in his career but due to some Hemmroid issues he can no longer fight to his best abilty unfortunetly. Eugene is a stellar wrestler with good striking on the ground. Big Ben is coming in with a slight experince advantage and also is a good wrestler. I think Ben will tryout his standup in this bout with his opponent being a guy who tends to cut easily. On a good note for "The Troll" he will only need to worry about his Anal bleeding after the fight as he can enjoy his time away from the sport. Good luck with that Eugene!!!
"Alcatraz" Frank Morris (2-2-0) Vs. Takanori Gomez (2-0-0)
Next up we will be hitting the Bantamweight division with a nice little scrap. Frank Morris has had a up and down start to his MMA career but hey we can't win em all. Morris is a counter striker who also holds a purple belt in BJJ. Frank's biggest trate would be his heart which could really help him in the later rounds of this bout. Gomez has been looking very good here latley winning "Submission of the Night" in his last fight. Takanori the native of the phillipines has a awesome gas tank and matches up well in this fight. This one could go to the judges in a spectacular showing for both of the fighters.
"Daddy Long Legs" Stanley Stone (4-2-0) Vs. Cam "The Prime Evil" Kran (4-1-0)
Finishing up the prelim card we have another bantamweight battle with two guys looking to get back in the title picture after minor set backs derailed there path. Stone is a great ground fighter with very good Takedown ability. The BJJ brown belt has finished three out of four victories with sub's. Kran is the spitting image of Stone which could make or brake this bout. Kran may have a slight Quickness advantage which he may need to focus his gameplan around.
Superheavyweight Challenge Match-ups
Match #1
"The Next Big Thing" Theo Matthews (2-0-0) Vs. Luke Fu (7-3-0)
Starting things off on the Main Card in the SH Challenge now. Matthews has a very well rounded game but his boxing stands out as his style of chioce. Theo also holds a purple belt in BJJ and both his fights where won by Submissions so who knows what he has planned in this one. Luke Fu will be making his ninth apperence in the cage but his first here at Torment. Luke is a Muay Thai specialist with decent wrestling as well. I expect Fu to use his great Muay Thai very aggresively in this one and try to stuff the takedown. If he can keep it standing this match will be fireworks for sure fu has a soldi chin let's see how Matthews is if he gets tested.
Match #2
Ryan Ross (2-0-0) Vs. Billie "The Bull" Botha (3-0-0)
The next match has grapplefest written all over it with two dynamic wrestlers taking the cage. Ross is a powerfull dude with some vicious GnP as seen in his two fights. He also has a BJJ purple belt so he is extremely dangerous in all aspects of the ground game. Botha is called "The Bull" for a reason as he tends to over power his victims with his pure strength. It will be interesting to see who is the stronger fighter in this one for sure. Botha is also a submission guy winning all three of his bouts with submiision finishes. Usually when two good wrestlers fight it stays standing so we may have to see who has the better standup in this one.
Match #3
"Raging" Reginald Lewis (3-1-0) Vs. Valravn Solefald (4-1-0)
Can you believe it we have another wrestler vs. wrestler match next, where are all the strikers at. Reginald is coming off the first loss of his career to Santa Claus of course, Santa is no joke folks. Lewis is a great counter striker with a solid chin so his stand up may be where he wants to focus on this fight. Solefald is also coming off his first loss even worse it was stopped by the Doctor i thought for sure the scandanavian fighter was gonna bite off the doc's face. Valravn is very aggresive and explosive on the ground with his punches finishing all his victories by TKO there. Both of these big guys have good chins so if it stays on the feet this could be a sluggout.
Match #4
Gordus "The Claymore Sword" Clay (1-0-0) Vs. "Doctor" David Tennant (5-1-0)
In the Final superheavy challenge showdown will see some strikers hit the cage. Gordus Clay no doubt has a experience disadvantage but he makes up for that with awesome tools of the trade as he has obviously been trainning his behind off. Clay a very well rounded fighter with a very supirior wrestling base is gonna be tough anywhere the fight goes. Tennant started his career off with a tough loss then went on a tear winning 5 in a row. Clay may be well rounded but David is a deadly striker and may just add another KO to his resume Saturday. If he can stay away from the clinch and grappling and keep his distance clay may be in some trouble. Clay though looks like he has a very bright future and will look to pull out a win over a very experinced KO artsit.
Co-Main Event
Middleweight Challenege Simi-Final Match #1
Alucar "The Recluse" Aroman (2-1-0) Vs. Jeremy Ring (5-1-0)
Next up are first Middleweight Challenge bout hits center stage for a all out war. Aroman has a strong Muay Thai Base and will look to mix up his striking and clinchwork. Alucar is coming from a strong MMA family as both of his brothers are also in the fight buisness. Jeremy Ring is well versed in all areas of the fight game and showed his diversity with a nice come from behind victory at WOTLA 8. Ring also has good Muay Thai with very nasty elbows. He may want to take this fight down though and try to add another Submission victory to his record.
Main Event
Middleweight Challenge Simi-Finals Match #2
Muscle Freak (3-0-0) Vs. "The Russian" Vladimir Bukharin (8-0-0)
Rounding out the card we have a blockbuster main event for you MMAddicts. Vladimir is a former Hilo Hardhitters Middleweight champ who looks to be unbeatable in the cage. This guy has finished all of his fights in the very first round. Vlad is a Rocco Mediate trained fighter whom is one of the top managers around. "The Russian" has solid tools everywhere but his wrestling is his main style. Stepping in against Vlad is Muscle freak who will try to get past the first round lets see if he can do it. Muscle will be in there trying to pull the upset if he can do this there will be a big P-A-R-T-A-Y in the Warriors of Torment Camp. Muscle has good boxing and a solid gas tank which will be key's to his victory obviously, he needs to keep his distance plan and simple. If Bukharin puts those powerfull mits on Freak it could get ugly very quick. Bukharin could be a champ here for a long time if he plays his cards right which im sure Mr. Mediate will help him out with that. I am stoked about this bout i just hope to see Muscle get past that first round c'mon freak.
Well ladies and gents as always it has been my pleasure look forward to seeing you all at the afterparty.
Pat Miletich over and out. Hoooooo AHHHHHHHHHH
