Sausage boy sucked as a manager anyway why even give him the time of day? He couldnt win threw a fit and claims to have left the game. He probably went back to farmville to milk a goat.

Well, MSL beat Bernhard by split decision, even with the loss, It confirms for me that Bernhard has what it takes to be good. Bring on EPL!

205lbs: Thoreaux AssKicken vs Adlet Mayer http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/0/14710281147333.png vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/0/14416041157623.gif Age: 24 Age: 22 Height: 190 cm Height: 187 cm Weight: 215 lbs Weight: 200 lbs Record: 7-2-1 (LLWWW) Record: 6-4-0 (LWLWW) Few men are so synonymous with Aspire MMA as Thoreaux AssKicken, the poster boy for the early promotion of the organisation having held and defended the 205lbs title on multiple successful title defenses headlining some of the biggest show's the organisation has ever held, never shy of a big time fight the "A" team player AssKicken looks to once again set a path of destruction up the division moving towards his revenge against current champion Alejandro Scott. The first step on the path to that goal is no easy task with Russian Bears mainstay Adlet Mayer an exceptional striker with a sensational wrestling base fighting out of St Petersburg intending on bringing AssKicken's dreams crashing down. Fight: Adlet Mayer moved in early with a takedown attempt but was slapped away by AssKicken who failed to counter with a sharp left hand to the body leaving himself slightly off balance giving Mayer credence once again with the takedown attempt, sprawling well against the force of the single leg attempt the fighters ended up in the clinch and AssKicken hit Mayer with a thunderous right hand that left Mayer needing stitches as his upper right eye was cut trickling blood into his field of vision, the referee seemed to consider putting a halt to the action but AssKicken repeatedly failed to land strikes as Mayer remained active at all times displaying fantastic striking defense. Pushing once more for the takedown Mayer changed levels and drove through into side control, AssKicken looking visibly pissed off to have failed to defend the attempt set about immediately reversing his fortunes by securing half guard and working to control Mayer who set about inflicting damage with his notable ground and pound. Sensing the danger AssKicken worked his position until he secured a tight guillotine submission that left Mayer panicking forcing the tapout in just two minutes and fifty-nine seconds of the first round. Winner - Thoreaux AssKicken by way of Submission (Guillotine) : Fight Rating 45% 155lbs: Brandon Lee vs Pekko Wannanen http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/11/11w16.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/41/41w24.jpg Age: 24 Age: 24 Height: 178 cm Height: 172 cm Weight: 161 lbs Weight: 161 lbs Record: 7-5-0 (WWLWL) Record: 3-1-0 (WLWW-) You will be forgiven for thinking you have tuned into a Helsinki Fighting Leauge broadcast in this fight with both men making their debuts from the promotion to Aspire MMA both with positive momentum coming off successful fights with Brandon Lee scoring a KO (Punches) victory over Cenk John on the HFL:50 show and then a Submission (Strikes) victory at HFL:52 in parallel to Pekko Wannanen's TKO (Strikes) victory against Martin Ortega at HFL:49 in the second minute of the very first round. Both young fighters will be keen to make a noteworthy debut with competition thick at 155lbs. Fight: Closing the distance at lightning speed Wannanen was able to force a clinch, perhaps having watched the previous bout he used it as a blueprint to success by plowing his opponent with deep strikes to the ribs leaving Brandon Lee gasping for air and then following up with punishing uppercuts and elbows to the head, Brandon worked hard to defend what he could but he was well and truly in Wannanen's zone suffering tremendous damage in a flurry of offence by Wannanen that left his victim rocked. The audience in attendance erupted with excitement as Wannanen landed a tight uppercut to the head sending Brandon Lee staggering backwards and forth, as if to setup a finishing move from a video game Wannanen took a step back and leaped forward with a superman style uppercut that sent Brandon Lee tumbling to the ground forcing the referee to intervene before more damage could be done. Winner - Pekko Wannanen by way of TKO (Strikes) : Fight Rating 84% 205lbs: Jack Dempsey vs Thomas Peterson http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/16/16w12.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/39/39w20.jpg Age: 29 Age: 24 Height: 185 cm Height: 190 cm Weight: 205 lbs Weight: 215 lbs Record: 8-2-0 (LWLWW) Record: 6-3-0 (LLWWL) Recent losses at 205lbs to Apollo Creed and top contender Darth Sidious have raised questions about Thomas Peterson's resolve having suffered both to KO (Punch)'s despite a previously strong track record on his feet when his chin was put to the test, his fans will surely be hoping this was just a momentary blip and Peterson can show tonight he's still got what it takes to flourish at this level. His opponent tonight coming off a debut loss to Jako Day at Just Bleed 28 is twenty-nine-year-old journeyman Jack Dempsey who secured a string of amateur level victories at the QFC level in 2016 and looks to parlay that into a successful professional career, his camp will know tonight is a must win situation for him. Fight: Coming out to Fivefold - Not The Only One it was easy to tell that Peterson was in good spirits as he entered the cage, instigating the clinch with extream prejudice from the opening bell and snapping his opponents head back from the get go it was Petersons incredible strength that prevailed early on as Dempsey repeatedly tried and failed to break free of the remarkable Muay Thai on display. With multiple heavy hooks to the body that visibly hurt Dempsey the crowd applauded the decimation they witnessed as Dempsey's head once again snapped backwards followed a monstrous left hand that had been proceeded by numerous body shots leaving Dempsey gasping for air, rocked by the action Dempsey once again looked to break out of the clinch and establish a more comfortable striking distance but a sharp uppercut would take the legs from Dempsey leaving him crumpled on the ground. Winner - Thomas Peterson by way of TKO (Strikes) : Fight Rating 91% 205lbs: Brandon Stark vs Donsone De http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/30/30w1.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/0/14508718173330.png Age: 33 Age: 25 Height: 187 cm Height: 181 cm Weight: 187 lbs Weight: 195 lbs Record: 6-0-0 (WWWWW) Record: 13-5-0 (LWLWW) If you were to design an MMA fighter from the ground up it would look like Donsone De on it's very best day, this specimen of human beast towers over his peers in raw intrinsic potential but has yet to be tested against a truly formidable opponent, enter Brandon "The 100th Of His Name" Stark fighting out of London, England with a record of 5-2-0 this the former Bravado 205lbs champion will be ample test for what many pundits consider the brightest prospect in the entire promotion Donsone De. Fight: From the moment the bell sounded Donsone De moved with precision to secure a trip takedown into side control but Stark used his exceptional wrestling to recover into the half guard, unsure how to proceeded the inexperienced Donsone De looked over to his corner as he pressed his opponent against the cage preventing him from escaping looking for instruction that never came, failing to stay active the referee moved to warn both fighters that they would be stood up if action did not commence and Donsone De was willing to oblige with some brutal looking ground and pound that clearly took the fire out of Stark leaving behind a large gash across his forehead. Proceeding to reign down elbow strikes to Starks head while using the rest of his body weight to position himself in such a way to prevent Starks escape it was only a matter of time before Starks cut continued to get worse until the referee was forced to call a stop this bout, much to the crowd's dismay. Winner - Donsone De by way of TKO (Cut) : Fight Rating 19% 265lbs: Sydney Amazon vs Lucio Francisco Carmo http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/0/14230064158091.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/30/30b26.jpg Age: 24 Age: 22 Height: 190 cm Height: 190 cm Weight: 205 lbs Weight: 224 lbs Record: 5-2-0 (LLWWW) Record: 4-0-0 (WWWW-) And in our first fight of the night we have TWGC veteran Sydney "The Artisan" Amazon coming off a victory against Jacob Sertho at Bravado 10 way back in late 2016 before heading to the grand grappling tournament and fairing pretty well going 4-3 against some tough opponents he will take on one of the men he previously defeated during the tournament Lucio Francisco "Jurupari"Carmo of The Highland Network fame to settle the bad blood left behind when Carmo was forced to tap out to a particularly nasty looking choke in front of his family in Morro da Babilonia, Brazil. Fight: Lucio Carmo attempted to start the fight off with a takedown attempt that was well defended by Amazon however he was unable to prevent an early clinch attempt that gave Carmo an opening to inflict serious body shot damage that would stay with Amazon for the remainder of the fight, breaking the clinch in a brave attempt to take the fight back to the center of the cage Carmo reigned in a thudding right hand to the side of his victims head that left a nasty looking cut forcing Amazon to redouble his efforts to secure a takedown into side control. As Carmo looked to control the action from the bottom it was Amazon putting his ample BJJ skills to the test looking for the submission victory but late into the fourth minute of the round it was Carmo that was able to sweep a reversal into Amazon's guard to see out the round. Feeling the pressure coming out for the second round Amazon immediately attempted to return the fight to the ground but was thwarted by Carmo's stellar takedown defence not once but three times before Carmo moved to unload a monumental right hand followed by a stiff left that dropped his opponent to the ground. Sensing now was the time to finish Carmo followed to the ground but Amazon had recovered his senses and managed to defend the incoming strikes well while seeking to control from the bottom. While Amazon did try to secure a submission the referee eventually returned both men to the standing position and Carmo continued to dominate the standup leading to a big right hand that sent Amazon yet again tumbling to the ground rocking him in the process, following up with a big elbow Carmo was able to secure the fight and avenge his previous TWGC loss. Winner - Lucio Francisco Carmo by way of TKO (Strikes) : Fight Rating 46% The Aftermath: FON - Thomas Peterson vs Jack Dempsey KON - Casper Timmermans SON - Thoreaux AssKicken Next week's event Just Bleed 33 see's Highland Games stalwart Gerrald "Booger" James take on former Aspire MMA 205lbs contender Darth Sidious that is set to catapult one of these men right into the upper echelon of the division.

What a night of fights!

145lbs: Misha Collins vs Michail Podolski http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/35/35w24.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/34/34b8.jpg Age: 25 Age: 22 Height: 167 cm Height: 168 cm Weight: 148 lbs Weight: 148 lbs Record: 11-6-0 (WLLLW) Record: 5-0-0 (WWWWW) Former Budo Rei FC 135lbs contender Misha Collins makes his first step-up in weight to 145lbs tonight seeking to secure himself a debut victory against Michail "xXx" Podolski fresh of his Just Bleed 27 TKO (Strikes) victory over Hoss Moody, currently on the five-fight win streak mostly by way of KO it's easy to see why pundits have tipped the Gentlemens Club fighter as April's "One to watch under 23" in the recent issue of the Tycoon Times. With eleven victories in a career record of seventeen professional fights it's clear to see "The Angel Of Death" Misha Collins is dangerous both in the stand-up and on the ground having started his career primarily as a submission specialist he has constantly tested himself against the highest possible level of competition and will have the experience edge in this bout that may very well provide "xXx" a crushing first career loss. Fight: Attempting to touch gloves at the start of the fight Misha was taken off guard by an incoming jab that was largely unprotected forcing him to take a defensive posture and lowering his levels to allow for a successful shoot takedown into Podolski's guard, applying himself to the task Misha used his ground and pound to keep Podolski off-balance while his opponent tried his best to maintain wrist control. Advancing his position from the butterfly guard and sweeping into the top position Podolski found himself consistently put under pressure by Misha's multiple submission attempts from the bottom providing an exciting cat and mouse period where Podolski would seek to escape back to his feet and Misha content to work from below looked to finish the fight. Eventually having found themselves wedged up against the cage in a stalemate both fighters were eventually returned to the standup with Podolski managing to defend well against Misha's initial attempts to return the fight to the ground but ultimately succumbing to a lovely double leg takedown that would see Misha finish out the round from the dominate position. Returning to action Misha taunted Podolski audibly yelling "You're gunna get knocked out" as a devasting shot connected, immediately responding with an aggressive flurry of strikes Podolski managed to score a number of well-timed stiff shots that put Misha momentarily on the back foot before diving deep for a successful takedown into side-control once again returning the fight to the cat and mouse game of the first round with Misha seeking to finish on multiple occasions with various techniques while Podolski struggled to maintain control and seek his escape. Knowing that he must finish in the third and final round Podolski had a look of intensity on his face not seen before as he lead with a beautiful right hand that got the crowd behind him, stooping low to avoid any incoming strikes Misha was able to lunge forward with an uppercut that set Podolski on the back foot leaving Misha to shoot in for a failed attempt that was countered with a brutal shot that snapped Collins head back putting him in significant danger, sensing the importance of this moment Misha used his impeccable striking defense & reflexes to avoid what he could before countering into successful takedown. It looked like Misha was once again going to have a comfortable round of controlling the action on the ground while seeking out the submission he so clearly desired however the referee had other ideas with a questionable call standing the fighters up while they were both arguably active leading to a chorus of boo's from the audience. Podolski took the opportunity to go into over-drive unloading strikes upon his opponent as if his life was dependent on his quest to finish the fight with torrents of leg kicks and stiff hooks as he found it within himself to step up his levels and force his agenda late into the third minute of the round. Feeling the pressure and visibly in pain from the last-ditch assault Misha once more took the fight to the ground to close out the round but Podolski had turned things around in the final round doing just enough to secure the nod from the judges, unfortunately for him it was just not enough to undo the damage of the first two rounds. Winner - Misha Collins by way of Majority Decision : Fight Rating 47% 265lbs: Brutus Beefcake vs James Daniel Kennamer http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/18/18w6.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/14/14w4.jpg Age: 30 Age: 23 Height: 192 cm Height: 180 cm Weight: 272 lbs Weight: 240 lbs Record: 11-6-0 (LWWWW) Record: 8-2-0 (LWWWW) Brutus Beefcake had been on a five-fight win streak having beaten top contender Israel Hand and former Aspire prospect Red Brophy in impressive fashion but it was all grounded to a halt at Just Bleed 27 when he was defeated by current 265lbs number one contender Keith Bishop, no stranger to his own woes his challenger tonight James Daniel Kennamer was on a four-fight streak of his own establishing a presence of dominance at 265lbs never before seen at Aspire MMA until his train was halted by the current champion Huell Babineaux. Tonight both men more used to the main event spotlight look to reboot their career's into winning form in a hope to climb back to the top of the mountain at 265lbs. Fight: Pulling a head kick out of his bag of tricks early Beefcake failed to land and was countered with a successful takedown into his guard, Kennamer initially content control his opponent quick started to look for weakness in Beefcakes armor plowing him with lethal ground and pound scoring some big shots that would certainly score well with the judges. Defending what he could Beefcake looked to sweep but managed to give up the position as Kennamer used the opportunity to move into side control leading to a barrage of shots that the referee was not convinced were been intelligently defended leading to an official warning that the bout would be stopped if Beefcake did not show more activity. Persevering through the danger Beefcake continued to fight valiantly against Kennamer's advances but eventually gave up the full mount resulting in additional pressure. To Beefcakes credit most fighters would have been out by this point but he held in until the third minute of the first round when the referee stood the fighters up, perhaps in a moment of madness Beefcake decided to attempt and successfully secure a surprise takedown right back to the ground picking up points with the judges but putting himself directly back into harms way as Kennamer looked for a guillotine in the closing seconds of the round to no avail. Setting the tone for the second round Kennamer took down Beefcake with confidence but was quickly overpowered by a beautiful butterfly guard sweep putting Beefcake briefly in control, Kennamer having drilled his transitions of late was able to almost immediately enforce a reversal as the war for positioning continued well into the second minute of the round with Kennamer picking up a cut to his right eyebrow during the melee of shots Beefcake was able to land during his time in the top position. Beefcake managed to inflict a number of significant potentially fight-ending ground and pound shots during late half of the second round leaving some to question if he was going to be able to finish with Kennamer looking dazed as the round came to a close, Beefcake had done just about enough to secure the round. As the third round dawned it was clear Beefcake's gas tank was running on empty as his hands rested at body level and Kennamer took full advantage connecting with a clean right hook that put Beefcake down to a knee, driving through with a nice takedown into half guard Kennamer exploited an exhausted Beefcake for the remainder of the round staying just active enough to maintain control while staying out of danger much to the displeasure of the crowd in attendance who felt that Kennamer had taken the safest possible route to victory. Following the fight Kennamer took to the mic and told the fan's that he understood why they were pissed but that he is a professional fighter and his job is to come out and win fights and sometimes the gameplan is not the most entertaining plan. Winner - James Daniel Kennamer by way of Unanimous Decision : Fight Rating 27% 185lbs: Kiovani Aro vs Kimbo Spice http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/15/15w19.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/34/34b11.jpg Age: 23 Age: 31 Height: 187 cm Height: 183 cm Weight: 193 lbs Weight: 185 lbs Record: 6-3-0 (WLLWW) Record: 10-7-0 (LWLWW) Following a series of strong win's Kimbo Spice entered the cage with tonight's main eventer Casper Timmermans at Just Bleed 27 but was shocked and awed by a first round TKO (Punches) loss that surprised industry insiders and fans alike. In the day's that followed Kimbo's camp were quick to request another opponent feeling that the best remedy for Kimbo was to get right back into the action and fresh of his victory against former champion Aksel Stenger the young prospect Kiovani Aro did not hesitate to step-up to the plate and accept. Fight: Combinations are flying early in the center of the cage as the live audience shows its appreciate for the initial striking war with both men giving as good as they got to start things off with a bang, Spice securing a nice double leg takedown into Aro's half guard looked to set the tone for the fight but Aro worked well to improve his position eventually sweeping into the top position momentarily before Spice yet again regained control scrambling into the top guard catching Aro by surprise. Aro continued to do an excellent job of preventing Spice from using his dominant position to inflict any serious damage and eventually won a standup decision from the referee and Spice looked slightly complacent from the top position as a result. Finishing out the round in the clinch Aro was able to deliver a couple of well-placed shots but it was perhaps his ability to continue to stuff Spice's insistent takedown attempts that would get him a very narrow nod from the judges at the end of the first round. Coming out for the second Spice took a scathing strike to the chin as Aro weaved to close the distance and land a follow-up hook to the left side of Spice's head, pushing forward with a peppering of leg kicks it was clear to see Aro was the dominate fighter when it came to the standup game and Spice understanding his predicament continued to try and take the fight to the ground eventually received a swift jab that rocked him during an attempt to close distance for a double leg all but assuring Aro's victory who was content to wait for his perfect moment before finally unloading a big right hand that sent Spice to the trainers room early. Winner - Kiovani Aro by way of TKO (Strikes) : Fight Rating 37%

Don't blink..or you'll miss me..

So says the 20th best fighter in a mid-sized organization. Scary!

Yet you take the time to come to the forum and comment. lol. I didn't post this thread to showoff my fighter bios. want to see others. Janne Finland is a guy who's always had quality fighter bios. Tarmo used to have good ones, Soyster too. Oh, and cut the shit. You didn't quit because lame forum threads. You quit because your alliance was ousted for being cheating scumbags and a bunch of people you thought were your mates jumped off that sinking ship like rats. http://www.mmatycoon.com/images/manager_avatars/1377428407lol3.jpg

Yep and yep As long as there are height restrictions. Cod have fun with the avatars too. Anyone want to make me a midget avatar?

Yep I'm in what weight though ?

Is it better to spend most days sparring and training physicals or Physicals and secondaries?

We all know that a high Confidence hidden makes for a fighter who fights very well when being the aggressor/is more aggressive in most situations. But what makes a good counter fighter? Is it also the Confidence hidden? Intelligence could play a factor as well as experience but the question is: what is the core hidden/key hiddens that makes a counter fighter so successful? In this thread we will explore this mysterious phenomenon and more!

I think he'll handle the step up in competition just fine.

Good fight!

I'll give a prize of $10k each for every headkick KO victory which takes place as part of this tournament.

The break down isn't known and for the most part doesn't matter. But lets say for sake that I was to guess at the actual numbers: 135 to 150 is granite 120 to 134 is solid The ToTT tells you what you need to know, so if you pop solid and my guess on numbers is correct your between 120 and 134. However even knowing the exact number don't really help. Say I somehow figured out that his chin was 133 so he's really close to a granite chin but just under. His heart and confidence all come into play on how easy he is to KO, so my solid might actually be harder to finish then a granite with less other hiddens like heart.

First post in this thread is now updated with all details.

We picked up pretty much everyone we had hoped to pick up from the merger and look forward to the amazing main events and co-main events that will result from this acquisition as we now look to the future, the truth is our roster is now over-sized and as such we will now need to start a process of releasing some of our lower-hyped less skill suited fighters and we do so in the very best of spirits with the best intentions for the organisation as a whole going forward, if you find yourself released from the organisation I want you to know I greatly appreciate and value each and every manager who has ever been part of this entire project until this point but the reality is that some of you will fair much better in some of the other fantastic organisations in and around our ID range such as StrikeForce Union run by Ryan Cambridge, Dignity! run by Mark Harrington who always offers great money deals and the fantastic Bushido 290k+ out of Tokyo run by my friend Rei Rei. I hope that fighters who find themselves in this position will take the opportunity to go and earn their stripes outside of Aspire and return to us demanding more money than they ever earned here previously to come back and make a triumphant return, it was my hope to have plan's in place for Aspire Contender's by the time we reached this very natural point in our growth but you have all given me the best possible start an organisation could ever have had with all of your support and we have blown my projections out of the water, we are frankly here at this point in our development too soon and that's why we are going to have to take these steps.

Timmerman's to date stands undefeated in MMA competition with only a single loss to his otherwise perfect 4-1-0 KT record and having recently picked up a significant burst of popularity following his 1st round TKO victory over Kimbo Spice becoming a viral youtube sensation it's safe to say this young champion is one of the brightest stars in all of Aspire MMA, if Volva Klimov can defeat him on his debut he will have made the most impactful debut in Aspire MMA history. Fight: The champion ducks low and lands a nice hook to the body and follows up with a number of kicks moving with incredible speed, Klimov hitting back with a jab to the face that connected and a decent looking hook that seemed to hurt was countered by Timmermans with a dominating right hand in response, both fighters unloading everything they have in the middle of the cage this has got to be one of the most exciting rounds we have ever witnessed in an Aspire MMA cage a truly great period of action with Timmermans getting a slight edge in the encounter but the ever dangerous Klimov powering towards victory with every landed shot. As the third minute of the first round came about Timmermans forced the fight into the clinch looking to secure the finishing blow as Klimov struggled to break free to no avail, blocking the majority of significant strikes during this time Klimov displayed immense heart despite the constant pressure the champion had him under leaving the judges to give Timmerman the nod. Instigating the clinch from the opening seconds of the following round it was Timmermans who noticeably stepped up his level of intensity hitting with a nice left hand that left Klimov stunned and following up with a crisp one-two that dropped him to the floor, perhaps in a show of sportsmanship Klimov was allowed to return to his feet as Timmermans engaged with the crowd before returning with a thudding left hand that sent Klimov stumbling once again before final unloading with a big left hand that hit directly across the Russian warriors jaw sending him unconscious before he hit the floor. Timmermans showing the integrity of a champion decided not to follow to the ground and instead immediately proceeded to celebrate with the fans inflicting no unnecessary damage to his fallen opponent. Winner - Casper Timmermans by way of KO (Punch) : Fight Rating 55% 265lbs : Robert Diggs vs Zee Snore http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/8/8b9.jpg vs http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/32/32w39.jpg Age: 24 Age: 23 Height: 190 cm Height: 192 cm Weight: 250 lbs Weight: 255 lbs Record: 10-4-0 (WLLWW) Record: 15-5-0 (WLWWW) Fresh off his Just Bleed 27 victory over Bubba Dee finally settling the score following a split decision loss to Bubba at Just Bleed 24 it's clear to see Robert Diggs looked like he had returned to form and was ready to take the next step on the ladder towards the title, blocking his path is newcomer Zee Snore formerly representing the Pulse Fighting Championship he holds a record of 15-3-0 with thirteen victories by (T)KO and training out of Vegas-based Forcefield Ludas owned by the highly rated manager Nick Force, presenting Robert Diggs his biggest challenge to date. Fight: Not one to disappoint the fan's Zee Snore kicked things off tonight with a mighty uppercut straight out of a video game that failed to land and Diggs failed to commit to a counter leading to a wild exchange between both men that would carry on deep into the second minute of the round tallying up double-digit significant stikes for all concerned before Diggs was able to move the fight into the clinch hoping to put his time spent training his dirty boxing at Champions MMA to good use. Working aggressively Snore was able to connect with a nasty looking hook to the side of Diggs head leaving behind a minor gash that would need attendance in the interval but did not seem to distract from the task at hand. Briefly towards the third minute of the fight Diggs was able to secure a trip takedown despite Snores excellent display of balance in trying to prevent it's success, once on the ground it was Diggs who sought to keep the fight active with ground and pound but was prevented in doing so by Snores talon like grip stalling out the action until the referee was forced to call a standup. Closing out the round it was Snore who got the better of the striking exchange as the live audience showed its appreciation for these two warriors who had to be separated towards the end of the round. Back into the fray for the second round it seemed both fighters had decided to step things up a level in aggression with Snore adapting low kicks into the mix and Diggs continuing to work over Snores body at every opportunity and forcing the fight into Diggs clinch comfort zone as the first minute of the round ticked down, focused on decimating the gas tank of his opponent Diggs continued to land powerful shots to the mid-section as Snore remained composed under pressure and picked his shots with precision inflicting heavy shots to the head of Diggs who's eye had begun to swell up as a result of the melee. Snore dominated the third and final round picking apart a depleted Diggs with punishing strikes that seemed at times to be almost undefended with the referee given good cause for concern at several moments in the round, Diggs in a last ditch attempt to finish shot in on Snore for successful takedown but was seemingly unsure what to do next checking to his corner for instructions but failing to receive what he desperately needed. Eventually been stood up by the referee it was Zee Snore who grinded out the remained of the round safely winning the standup war that had been so hotly contested early in the fight, this one was a real war of attrition. Winner - Zee Snore by way of Unanimous Decision : Fight Rating 57%

Sydney FC 1: "Birth" Fight of the Night Recap 155 lbs - Finn Balor vs. Chaslov Westlum Westlum had the balls to stand and bang with the remarkable boxer Balor, putting on a show that had the Micro Arena crowd in Sydney cheering from the first exchanges up to the dramatic finish. He pushed forward since the first bell with big punching combos but as expected, Balor got the better of the boxing exchanges. Westlum kept pushing forward though, countering and attacking and mixing takedown attempts until one finally landed around the one minute mark in the second round. From then on, Westlum was perfect with his ground and pound, landing 11 of 11 ground strikes, rocking Balor and finishing with elbows and punches from side control. Balor still figures to be a key player in SFC's LW division, while Westlum, now turned into "Shinsuke Nakamura", will fight for the inaugural Sydney FC 155 pounds belt in SFC 3.

Primaries have a greater overall effect on whatever action you're taking in a fight. But having deceptively high secondaries and physicals can be a game changer too. At least a couple vet managers I know train their secondaries to Wonderful or higher before they ever spar.

After starting April with a bang, what's next for Kings FC? Going in its third month on the fighting scene, Kings FC already rewarded its fans and followers with two spectacular events. On the first day of April, KFC 8 crowned its P4P king Chris Leary the first ever light heavyweight champion. Only a week later, was produced the first heavyweight champion Antonio Ramos in a major fight of the year contender in front of the sold out The Underground. Looking forward to the future, it seems to be getting brighter and brighter for the small London project which is already showing the potential to do big things and take over the MMA scene. KFC 10 is bringing the lightweight belt to the table, with Liam "Butcher" Kennedy going against Chea Soun. The main card also is going to offer a light heavyweight battle between Mumba and Koopman, which is expected to shake up the 205lbs. rankings of the org. Fabian Dominguez will be facing Nico Hassenkamp with the prize being a serious contender spot in the welterweight division. At KFC 11 we will be watching one of the most anticipated clashes in the org - light heavyweight champion Chris Leary going against #1 light heavyweight contender Cobra Commander, a fight where 7-0 record meets a 6-0 record! Co-main event of the evening is going to offer a contender fight in the middleweight division with Lake Dutchman going against the young prodigy Thor Hammer. There are rumors that the winner might get a lucky ticket to a title fight against Tom Mcgettigan. Also two grapplers will be facing each other in the featherweight division when Jake Heke is hoping to provide Vick Shroud a raw welcome to the 145 lbs. division after Shroud making a transition from bantamweight. KFC 12 will be the time when the first welterweight champion will be crowned. Henry Kane, a debutant in the org coming with solid background behind him, earned a title shot on his first fight versus one of the most exciting and versatile finishers at Kings FC - Booty Booty. The co-main event will be featuring another title fight, this time in the featherweight division. The aspiring youngster George Steve will be looking to write his name in the history books as the youngest Kings FC champion ever against Tom Tucker, another impressive 145lbs. combatant coming to the org with an unbeaten 5-0 record. Elsewhere, in one of the most overwhelmed by talent divisions of the org - the light heavyweight, Jake Butler will be fighting versus Bradley Johnson with both fighters daring to climb up the rankings with a view on a potential title shot. Kings FC haven't announced the full fight card schedule for KFC 13, but it is already confirmed that in the main event Angelo San Diego will be defending his bantamweight title for the very first time versus Thiago Cavalcanti Azevedo. In another bantamweight clash, Frank Shuman will be fighting Michael Paine. Rumors are, that Tim Hunt is going to clash with Teemu Packalen in the lightweight division, but nothing is official yet. This was our review about the exciting stuff going around Kings FC, the org that is making fight fans all over the world jumping from their seats! Stay tuned and make sure to buy tickets earlier for the spectacles happening in The Underground arena in London. There are already fans complaining for failing to acquire tickets for the sold-out Kings FC events. Maybe it is time for the org managers to get in touch with the owners of the bigger Hayashi's lounge?

Instant classic and fight of the year candidate in Ascension today. Long time FW champion and HOF'er Shogun Iron Tyson clashed with LW champion Trent Cotchin in an amazing back and forth scrap. Check it out: http://mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=866051

Very badass! I can't decide which one I want to use. How much$?

Would you participate in a 315k+ 135 lb KT division? Would you participate in a 315k+ 135 lb KT tournament? Prolly super heavyweight

I vote 25y olds - it's not like we're going to be able to use these guys in the long run anyway

If we can name our fighters pretty much whatever we want, I really don't see a big deal with the avatars. Ultimately comes down to a I couldn't care less moment. I have an org owner named Justin Ass and I received a fight offer vs Dick Pound. And these aren't even close to the dumbest fuckin names I've seen or fought. And you can decline fights vs guys with retarded names but it doesn't stop somebody from picking up a FA and changing his name to Penis Wrinkle or cbomb Licker or Robot Coach Stand Up.

if an avatar is bad, it shouldn't be accepted. we don't need licenses if each avatar has to be manually accepted by Mike. if he thinks that avatar is good enough, IT IS good enough. if you see the avatar that you don't like, don't buy it, don't submit it. but if somoe one else likes it and wants it for HIS fighter, who are you to tell him that is bad and he shouldn't use it or shouldn't pay for such avatar?? will you pay your 15 days vip for him to submit the avatar that YOU would like to see on HIS fighter? just keep your nose in your own business, people and let the others have the avatars they like (as long as they're acceptable by Mike) worst thing to do, imo will only give unnecessary power to some 'no life' forumers, and the whole avatar making thing will turn into a popularity contest.

Yeah, kindly takes away from the fighting theme for me ... starting to look a bit dungeons and dragons. Makes we wonder if I should be looking for a "poison resistance" or "immune to magic" hidden to tick soon.

From my notices, physicals go like this (but this is just my opinion): Agility: Accuracy and Striking Defense (lessens your opponents accuracy) Flexibility: High Kicks/Knees accuracy and power, Submission offense and defense. Speed: Takedown offense, clinch entering, successful counters, unsuccessful opponent counters. Strenght: KO power, clinch control, ground control. Conditioning: Energy levels. Balance: Takedown defense, kick strenght, kick accuracy.

Yeah but thats just your observation, how Agility work is explained in the wiki of the game http://www.mmatycoon.info/index.php?title=Fighter_skills Agility affect standup striking : dodge incoming hits, and land hits on opponent, thats really about it, some physicals are more complimentary than the others, like as i said before already, speed is complimentary of agility. As for what i experienced my self, i was able to outstrike lots of strikers with an Agility based boxer with some strength and balance (to avoid being taken down.) , speed was not important because if the phyiscals are different so are the sliders that i use, i also noticed that higher speed is better for getting in the clinch, avoid the clinch, make takedowns and Speed/balance are complimentary physicals for takedown defense.

I always imagine an agile striker to be like Anderson Silva

Why you post in Noob help if you think you already have the truth in your pocket.

Broken or not I think that depends on the manager. I too suck with the ground sliders but I know managers who dominate with them so clearly they are doing something everyone else isn't Lets assume you get the takedown into full guard, that's the default position where the top guy is slighly the favourite because he has top position but is otherwise considered a neutral position in the game. From here you can really get to any other position but it's less chance to get to a great position like full mount, which is the best position (or the back depending on how you see things) The normal order however is: fullguard --> half guard -- > side control --> full mount ---> back (if the opponant rolls over) but like I said, you can go straight from full guard --> full mount too but it's less likely and often comes from opponant making a misstake and you countering it. Here you can find the ground hierarchy aswell as some instructions: http://www.mmatycoon.info/index.php?title=Fight_tactics http://www.mmatycoon.info/images/a/a7/Ground_hierarchy.gif So the way it works is that it first looks at your Aggressive vs counter slider to determine if you are going to do a move or not. From the image you can see all offensive moves are done from aggressive standpoints. I'm going to try and walk you through the hierarchy and see if we can make it a bit more clear. From aggressive standpoint Your fighter is looking to make a move, he is being the aggressive - Opponant will there for be in defensive mode looking to possibly counter Before your fighter does anything the game looks at the stay on ground or get up - This is not an absolut slider meaning 50% stand up will not generate a stand up every other move. But the higher the get up the higher chance that he will try and attempt to get up. If he does try to get up the aggressive move is over. He either gets up or he fails. If the move was stay on ground he'll get to the next step. Finish Vs Control. If he uses control he will look to tie up his opponant, this can be good for various reasons but essentially you are making a defensive move from an active position. You are trying to control your position, your opponant etc. If this move is done the aggressive action is completed and done. if finish was performed in the previous step instead of control your fighter will now look at if he will attempt to throw strikes or improve his position. Now we are at the layer where your fighter actually preforms an action activly on the ground. If your fighter uses advance position he now looks to try and improve his position from whatever position he is in. from top his next most likely move would be to try and advance into half guard or side control depending on his success. He could go to mount but it's not very likely. Once this is done his action is over. Your fighter decided to go for a strike/sub in the previous step - He now is looking to do some damage. This aswell is not an absolute slider and going for submissions having 65% submissions doesn't mean he'll just go for submission like a mad man but that he will more likely look for the submission. Yes you can subspam and that is being done at times to but the higher the % submission the less likely he will perform a good submission. If you are looking for gnp the % will be higher towards ground strikes and this will be simular to how you throw a punch when in a standup fight. So to be able to preform an action in the "5th" layer your fighter has to go through the sequence of actions to the left in the picture. If one move is selected to the right the action ends there and it starts all over again. The ground top vs ground bottom slider can play an important part aswell as to how your fighter will perform. If it's high on top position and your fighter is on the ground in dissadvantage position he will try and sweap/roll his opponant to get to the top position more often so when he's trying an advance position he might go from bottom half guard to top half guard instead of progressing to bottom full guard. This is dictated by the top vs bottom slider. Having high top position will also mean your fighter will not like to be on his back and things like dropping back for a heel hook will not be possible. if he has top possition with high ground bottom he is much more likely to drop back and go for a heel hook, assuming he either makes an active submission attempt or a counter submission hope I didn't confuse you even more
