  1. Aspire MMA Update - 21st September 2017. Hey folks, I keep putting this off so I figure I best just get it out the way. I wanted to make a big grand post that made this seem somewhat less unfortunate but the reality of the situation is that I have spent most of my time over the last few weeks dedicating myself to crypto currency's and as a result write-up's for our events have not been done on time or in some cases at all, that is not the standard of effort you have all become accustomed to and it's not the standard I want to set for Aspire, but the unfortunate reality is that I have found a way to make significant strides towards a better prospect for my family in my real life with this situation and that has become more of a priority over time. What does this mean? you might of noticed a number of your favourite organisations have announced closure of late including Bushido, SFU and HFC, I'm sure you are expecting the same from me now I paint such a grim picture of things, but I want to assure you all Aspire MMA is here to stay, I love this game with a passion and while I can no longer commit to the multiple hours a week spent doing the write-ups I can promise you all that the running and operation of Aspire MMA will be no less than the very best you have come to expect, no lack of commitment or effort will be spared when it comes to that, and to ensure the future of Aspire MMA I'm proud to announce the following. The Expanse. As of the 20th of September 2017 we have purchased and closed the StrikeForce Union and have sent all existing fighters of note contracts to join Aspire MMA, in addition to this we have negotiated and secured deal to acquire Bushido 290k and the services of it's current leadership, Rei Rei and GBK to the Aspire MMA staff with Rei Rei taking control of day to day operations while I maintain my position as CEO of the company with a view to ensuring quality of service, GBK will be taking an advisory role during the transition period to help Bushido members find contracts at Aspire MMA. To address some concerns since GBK does hold a number of fighters within the organisation to date, if anyone does not wish to fight GBK's fighters during this time please feel free to decline the fight offers, it's not our policy to have someone on staff who is actively fighting in the organisation and we will look to filter this situation out over time, but for the moment his position at Aspire MMA is transitional and then he will be moving onto another yet to be announced project alongside Aspire board member Tom Bickle, he will not at any time be involved in the booking process for Aspire MMA while still under fighter contract, on this you have my solemn word. With Tom Bickle, TJ, Shiv, Rei Rei and GBK all working together to make sure the greater Aspire collective is providing the very best experience the game has to offer I can be assured the continued prosperity of the brand and organisations, I dare say this is one of the strongest teams ever assembled for such a task and I'm proud to be working alongside them all daily to reach the very top of the game. What Rei Rei brings to the table I know many of you already understand he's the best unrestricted org manager litteraly in the game and he ran such an amazing ship over at Bushido that heavily inspired Aspire MMA that I could not pass up on the oppertunity to work with him directly, he will be everything I was and more, trust him as I do please folks of Aspire MMA, his word is my word now. And About Them Write-Ups Adam? Honestly one of the main reasons I started an org in the first place was to tell my little storeys, I never got burned out doing them, it wasn't that kind of situation I still love doing them, I still love seeing the replies I get from you guys ingame and on the forums when I say something funny about your fighters, I still love doing video packages and all of that stuff, I just cannot commit to doing it every week and since I'm pretty sure nobody else is going to give them the love I do I think its best I just confirm what everyone suspects that they will no longer continue on a two times a week basis, or even a weekly basis. The plan going forward particularly since we will have a confirmed 8 events per month with all of the extra fighters we will be picking up is to go ahead and do a month retrospective on the general discussion section to attract more viewership and cover the moments that really matter in as much detail as we can, efforts will most likely be a collaborative effort between myself, GBK and Rei Rei as we hope to provide the most anticipated thread of the month, every month with a quality distribution that covers everything that's going on across the Aspire campus. I understand this is far from the effort displayed to date and I hope you will forgive me, I love this. I love all the support you all gave me to get this far and I do feel I'm letting you down in admitting this but I have to focus my time into something else in that regard to be completely honest with you all. This will in no way affect the quality of the organization, that I promise. And the ID range elephant in the room? So we have made no secret of our intention to take Aspire MMA unrestricted in the new year, we looked at our current situation, almost all 280k fighters with a handful of 275k fighters we mostly picked up from OMEGA of late as a sort of test-run, that worked out fine and most 280k fighters were happy to fight the 275k guys without issue, but now that we are adding a full pool of 290k fighters to the mix (or at least the ones who skill wise can hang with 280k fighters) we want to make it very clear that our intention is to push back Aspire Unrestricted until Summer 2018 and going forward we intend to stop recruitment of all fighters under 280k ID, this unfortunately means we will cease to offer contract extensions to 275k ID fighters currently hired to Aspire MMA over the next few months as their deals run down. We want Aspire MMA to be the very best organization in the game, its so rare we get a fight decline or have issues with any manager and I'm so thankful for that mentality that has grown here in Aspire MMA that has helped us become top of this ID range, next stop the world. TL;DR Sorry for the lack of write-ups. They are going monthly now. We acquired SFU & Bushido and will be settling in Rei Rei as the Dana White type soon. I'm now more of a Lorenzo Fertitta, but I'm still here and I still love it. edit: PS we also moved to London (-:

  4. Bjorn with his passive aggressive 'how to win friends and influence people' typical bullshit once again. You are never wrong are you boy? You ask for a fight against my guy McLaughlin (who is at the upper end of the 290k ID bracket whilst yours is at the lower end), I asked for a little more time to train as I thought 2 weeks was taking the piss to be honest. To my surprise I get a pm from Rei saying that Mommy doesn't want to wait and give me anytime to train ( from the fighter that despite having a large ID and primary advantage and also taking 5+ months out to train solidly) and if I don't accept Bjorn is going to throw his toys out of the pram yet again. In the end Rei was able to get him to give me a whole 3 weeks training which was oh so kind of Bjorn and I accepted to help Rei out. Now after a whole lot of shit on the forums and a lot of time spent defending Bjorn, I finally gave up a year or so ago and decided that he just didn't want to be helped and he probably enjoyed all the drama no matter how negative it was even though half the time he cries to Mike. I sent him a pm a couple of months ago and thought that we might actually try and be civil to each other but he tries to bait me with some shitty post fight speech and here again in Bushido's thread. I give up with you Bjorn. Monsieur Camara has a valid point, you do make it difficult for anyone to like you. Picking up FA's to retire them is a cbomb's move. What was wrong with sending them back to the FA market if you are about to quit the game for the 8th time this week? I think you actually enjoy being a cbomb and trying get people to react to your childish stunts and ridiculous call outs. Is this the only org that will have you know after calling out every champ or high hyped fighter with your un-worthy FA pick ups? I'll go back to sticking you on the ignore list and not fighting any of your guys or having anything to do with you again. It's funny how 99% of the community can get along and fight almost anybody yet 99% of the community don't want anything to do with you. Something for you to think about eh? Sorry for adding this to your org's thread Rei but I just got sick of the diarrhoea that constantly dribbles out of his lying mouth.

  5. I know theres been discussion about implementing body shot T/KO's or knockdowns, but is it something that has been decided one way or the other or is it still just talk? How difficult would it be to implement and why? Would it not be a near mirror formula as the chin?

  8. Ironman Fight Club XVII fight review sept 23 2017 Match 1- Shigeru Miyamoto ( 1-2, 160 lbs) vs Pero Kostolomac ( 3-5, 267 lbs) There always has to be someone in last place in a division and that currently goes to former contender Pero Kostolomac. After debuting in IFC 1, he fought former IFC champion Steven Kennedy at IFC 2 winning the bout in 17 seconds and starting his career at 3-0 and a possible contender here in IFC. Since than he has lost 5 straight and has nothing left to lose, he can only possibly go up from here. Neither fight has any grappling or ground skills at all so expect this to be a simple brutal slugfest. Pero has much more experience being in mma longer as well as being 7 years older than Shigeru. it is also big to note that Shigeru has lost to 2 fighters that have been doing extremely well in IFC so it is possible that his only downfall so far in his short career has been the strength of his schedule which will help him later on if he can string some victories together. Match 2- Dream Panda (4-2, 245 lbs) vs Lord "God Of Destruction" Beerus (1-1 156lbs) On paper this is a hilarious match up of two young prospects that are one dimensional fighters. Neither has any stand up skills so this is expected to be a ground fight between a superior wrestler who is a white belt in bjj vs a brown belt in bjj who lacks a lot of wrestling. Both loses Dream Panda has had so far have been by submission to a purple and blue belt so that gives Lord Beerus a very distinct advantage in his match up. Though when you know exactly what your opponent wants to do is the best time to change your gameplan. With Dream Panda being a lot better as a wrestler i feel like its possible if he wanted to he could try to keep this fight standing since Lord Beerus will want to look for that easy submission all fight. Problem with this possible strategy is with neither fighter having skills in stand up what would be the outcome if this fight does not go to the ground? We have no idea who has the better striking ability in stand up but it is possible that if Dream Panda can keep this fight standing that he can use his almost 100lbs weight advantage to do damage in anything he could land. Match 3- Jeremy "God" Lamb (2-2, 245lbs) vs Yoshihiro Sexyama (0-0, 190lbs) This match was a last minute signing that will feature the mma debut of Yoshihiro Sexyama vs the IFC debut of Jeremy "god" Lamb. Being the first time Lamb has ever fought outside the heavyweight division may be very good or bad for his career. He has struggled vs bigger opponents so far however has a 55 lbs weight advantage going into this fight. Sexyama is a smaller faster grappler from Japan who will be trying to take this fight to the ground. Without much else info known about Sexyama we do not know what else we can expect from him yet however this will be a great first test for him because as a natural Middleweight you can expect to often fight fighters that are both bigger and smaller than yourself. Jeremy Lamb is currently not training so some people are concerned if he is not improving is he taking IFC seriously enough to start moving up the ladder? Match 4- Jimbo "Gpk" Bradbrook (2-3, 160lbs) vs Taz "Crash" Bandichoo (2-3, 240lbs) The first very thing to note when you take a look at Taz Bandichoo is that he has always lost any fight so far that has gone past a 30 second fight. He can brawl however so far has had a huge problem with running out of gas and the longer he fights the lower his chance has been to win. Despite the weight advantage here of 80 lbs Taz Bandichoo was outclassed heavily in his last fight vs 150lbs fighter German Cordova in his last fight. Jimbo Bradbrook's last outing was equally disapointing when the ref stopped his fight vs Damien Demento in round 2 thanks to being cut too bad during some vicious ground and pound however he was able to weather the storm for quite some time. Taz Bandichoo has really good stand up skills so it may be good for Jimbo Bradbrook to exploit what seems to be Bandichoo's weakness. If Jimbo can last long enough to start to wear down the better stand up fighter than he will be in good position to start making a comeback in IFC but Taz is still young at the age of 19 and has a long career left to get in shape and turn things around for himself. Match 5- Chong "The Star Fish" Tay (4-2, 210lbs) vs Alex Stefanovic (1-0, 192lbs) This is a fight of two up and coming young prospects and it will be a very good stand up brawl. It is a very good mention that Chong Tay has yet to ever be finished so far losing to 2 decisions while winning his other 4 fights by ko. So far Chong Tay has shown a penchant for wanting to go with a lot of combos and kicks but this time around he finds himself vs a very interesting opponent. Alex Stefanovic has only one career fight but in his fight he showed that he really likes to utilize a skill not very many people go for and that is big elbows. We do not know what other skills to expect from Alex however what we do know is that Chong Tay has never fought against elbows before and not many people have experience trying to fend them off. Chong Tay seemily throws more punch combos than anyone else i see in the IFC and will be looking for big quick strikes to disrupt Stefonvic's gameplan and has shown the ability to keep throwing big strikes without gassing himself out too early. This will be a very exciting fight as on paper it is too close to call and both of these fighters may have a very bright future in the IFC ahead. Match 6- En "Metal Priest" Esch (2-4, 238lbs) vs Heath "lizard arms" Bace (2-4, 300lbs) Heath Bace has had a very interesting start to his career so far. Even though on paper being known to be a wrestler what really seems to be what has won him anything so far is just being big and strong knocking out a much lighter opponent in the opening seconds with a couple punches. En Esch so far has been known to go the distance win or lose going to decision 4 of his 6 career fights so far. In his last bout we saw En Esch win the very first New Blood division bout before deciding to move back up to the normal Ironman division. It is very unclear if either fighter will make much of their career however both are still young enough that with the proper training they can make a nice turnaround. The one time En Esch has been finished so far was by the way of submission and even though Heath Bace has yet to win any bouts by submission yet it is of mention to note that he is a purple belt bjj vs the white belt En Esch and may be able to find a submission if he does actually get this fight to the ground. Match 7- Terry Bogard (2-1, 179lbs) vs "the Barbarian" Battle Ram (7-1, 220lbs) On this night we get to see the return of Battle Ram to the IFC under new management. Battle Ram had a couple previous fights before in the IFC and it is of note to say that his 1 lose came to current IFC champion Mew Choo and he also is the one person to beat a current number 5 contender Wolfgang Lee Roth. Not sure why his last manager dropped him after his first loss but I at the very least am very excited to see him back and curious to see what he will be able to do under new management. Terry Bogard is another very capable striker who somehow lost his last fight to Jan Schrjiber last fight in a 5 round decision. Not exactly sure why the fight was 5 rounds in this first place but that does not take away from the fact that he showed that he could actually last that long in a losing fight. Both seem to perfer stand up fighting and Terry Bogard may be the better striker in this fight. Battle Ram does have an age advantage but he was a free agent for awhile not getting the proper training so it is unclear if Battle Ram will perform to his fullest potential this fight but this is going to be one of the better fights of the night in my opinion in how close it may be. Match 8- Schmorgen Biscuit (4-1, 210lbs) vs Jan Schrijber (2-0, 237lbs) You almost want to forget that Schmorgen Biscuit has even lost since it was all the way back at IFC 1 where he lost to a cut in round 2 vs now #4 contender Eldar Tskhadaia. This is a classic wrestler vs striker match up however Biscuit does have decent skill in MT to help defend again his excellent MT opponent. As mentioned in the last match Jan for whatever reason was in a 5 round fight last time and has shown that he can go the distance and does not tire too easily. Both fighters are the same age and have been training a similar amount of time so this may come down to who has the better strategy rather than who is psychically the better prospect. This will be the biggest test of both men's career as they have a chance to start making it up towards the top of the rankings with a win here. This is my personal opinion but both managers seem to know exactly what they are doing in this fight and i do not expect this to be a quick or easy fight either way. (Co-Main Event) Match 9- Cattan "The Caribbean Death" Engoria (4-0-1, 215lbs) vs Dave "Tightass" Brooksbank (3-4, 160lbs) Despite his losing record Dave Brooksbank finds himself in a big match up for the co-main event of the evening. Cattan Engoria really does not need an introduction as funny as this sounds people seem to most remember him for his draw not all of his wins. All wins for both fighters have came via submission and we could be seeing yet another long chess match on the ground. While they are very similar in the way of purple belt bjj, Cattan Engoria is a much better wrestler. Dave Brooksbank is 7 years older than his opponent and will need to use his experience advantage in this fight but that may be the only advantage he has in this fight. Though in Dave Brooksbank's last fight he was able to do something that Cattan Engoria was not able to counter and that is beat Boss Yonic with a submission, while Cattan famousily got into a draw with Boss Yonic. Will Dave Brooksbank be able to pull off the upset and silence all his doubters? It is possible but i expect that Engoria can use his superior wrestling to prevent Dave from being at a good position on the bottom since I expect Engoria to be getting the takedowns in this fight. While not all fans like all these slower paced match ups I always love a good chess match. One wrong move and the fight can end in an instant and you get to see who has better control in a match up which is going to be a big deal if you start to make your way to the top at IFC. Right now we have a lot of top contenders that can either knock you out early or can control a fight well enough that they are not taking a lot of damage in a fight. (Main Event) Match 10- (8) " Gypsy" Tommy Walcott (5-1, 140lbs) vs Evgeni Lomachenko (5-1, 152lbs) Evgeni Lomachenko's good chin will be tested tonight as Tommy Walcott has been turning into one of the best well rounded young fighters on paper. Tommy unforunately lost his chance to be fighting for the IFC championship but he gets a good chance to bounce back against one of the better ground fighters in the org. Evgeni can beat you with both gnp or submissions and is a very dangerous brown belt. Tommy Walcott is primarily a striker but he does have better ground skills than Evgeni has stand up skills. With Evgeni's lack of stand up skills he must go to the ground or Tommy Walcott should be able to go to work on him in the stand up. Tommy Walcott was able to beat former IFC champion and known ground artist Steven Kennedy and his sprawling will be put to the test. I do not expect this fight to go to a decision but I also do not expect this fight to be over in the first round which is starting to become rarer in the IFC with all these 1 minute title fights and under 2 minute matches that have been coming up with some of the top fighters. With the top of the division moving so quickly in the last month if you want a chance at the title you really need to be on the top of your game so big matches like this are very important for any fighter right now. The champion Mew Choo is ranked 14 in mma tycoon for openweight and we are becoming to be a very known place for the underused open weight division. We have been growing more and more getting into bigger arenas and making a lot more revenue as of late. With so many big matches taking place of the next few weeks I would not want to miss my chance to step up and this will be a good card leading up to our next event which will have the most hyped title fight we will have so far.

  12. Judging by the thread about Predict Sliders, a lot of people either don't use them at all or only in a very limited way. Get rid of Predict Sliders and have fighters do that prediction based on intelligence (never bad to boost a hidden that isn't 'chin', 'heart' or 'K.O.') AND only the fighter's actual fighting experience. The more gights ge's had, the less he is surprised during a fight and the better he adapts. Again I think anything that would encourage managers to develop their fighters a 'real-life realistic' way should be welcome. You have to fight to give your fighter the skills he needs to be a good fighter!? No longer SUCH a good idea to hide away a young fighter until he's all trained up because FIGHTING is needed to get him ready? I think this idea is sadly missing from the game

  13. September part 1 Review GAMMA#659 Defoe v Grigol – September 2 205 superfight - Menace Defoe (GAMMA) Vs Grigol Pandahammer (Synchronicity) Two of the greatest light heavyweight forces collided in a superfight for the ages as the Gamma and Synchronicity light heavyweight champions go one on one in the octagon. Two of the greatest organizations in the world may compete directly against one another but they know good business when they see it. A superfight of a magnitude that could send shockwaves through the world of MMATycoon can only be good for business and thus this superfight was made possible. One of these elite fighters will immediately be catapulted to the global number one spot in the light heavyweight division and bring with him the bragging rights of defeating the number one light heavyweight from a rival organization. Menace Defoe looked better than ever in his last fight as he proved once more that there is no quit in the Gamma menace. After going through hell and back to regain his title against Divock Origi, he struggled against the dominant force of destruction that is Hector Verama but a comeback that set the place ablaze helped him retain his title. His latest fight saw the resurgence of the Menace Defoe of old, a machine gun of a striker. An armada of lethal strikes bombarding his foe until he was the only man left standing. Never does he back down from a challenge, he faces anyone who dares to oppose him with his head held high and when he’s facing an obstacle higher than he expected and is backed into a corner he is more dangerous than ever, as surrender is never an option for Menace Defoe. He’s a fighter, strong and brave with a never yielding fighting style, a never say die attitude and with the support of the Gamma crowd fully behind him it was his fight to lose. Grigol Pandahammer is a bear of a man, like his opponent he loves to strike with vigor and doesn’t back down from a challenge but the difference lies in the details. While Menace Defoe is constantly hunting for a finish, Grigol Pandahammer loves to overwhelm his opponents with an abundance of strikes. He will not rush the finish, he methodically breaks down his opponents with series of punishing blows and snapping kicks and should an opportunity arise he will finish them off but he won’t risk going for the finish if there is still some potential danger ahead. This Georgian bully will make you feel the pain and torment you until the fighting spirit leaves your body before he mercifully ends the fight. In his last couple of fights - that saw him facing the likes of Evil Nixon and the legendary Sotiris Kakoullis - he continued to walk the fine line between his bold in your face style and reckless abandon as he was pushed to the limit by these world class strikers. The question on everybody’s lips remained, would the Georgian sensation be able to keep his cool when he’s being pressured by a fighting machine like Menace Defoe with global light heavyweight domination on the line, in this emotional pressure cooker of a superfight? The bell rang and Menace Defoe immediately told his opponent what’s up, landing a leg kick with such tremendous force it buckled Grigol’s knee. Menace Defoe followed it up with a brutal body kick right to the ribs and Grigol Pandahammer was more than happy to exchange pleasantries as he planted two thudding kicks right into Defoe’s body. Pleasantries exchanged, these light heavyweight warriors went right to work. The first round saw Menace Defoe dominating with clobbering blows and a perfectly executed combination that sliced open a cut across Pandahammer’s forehead. Gamma’s Menace Defoe took the early lead with his reckless tactics as he was swinging for the fences from the get-go and struck home with a lacerating combination but his recklessness was also part of why he started fading away from the second round on. The reckless swings frequently missed their target and Grigol Pandahammer more than took advantage of his opponent’s lack of caution as he started gaining momentum with a plethora of snapping punches and slapping kicks that struck with near-perfect accuracy. The cut Grigol Pandahammer suffered in the first round proved irrelevant for the rest of the fight as Menace Defoe didn’t pursue it thoroughly and Grigol Pandahammer’s cut man did a wonderful job in keeping the cut from getting any worse in between rounds. Grigol Pandahammer’s focus rested solely on scoring points and keeping the cut from getting any worse and he did so by keeping a steady pace. Things were looking up for Synchronicity’s light heavyweight champion. Menace Defoe however was unimpressed and when he felt the tides were changing, he broke up the pace by closing the distance. The clinch game and the constant assaults on Pandahammer’s life proved a game changer for Gamma’s light heavyweight champion as Menace Defoe started gaining momentum in the final rounds and ended up getting his hands raised at the end of the fifth and final round. Winner: Menace Defoe by unanimous decision. GAMMA#660 Goodman v Obama (884464) – September 9 155 title - Cullen Castrello © Vs Randy Springs "The Great White" Cullen Castrello has swum his way up to the top of the food chain in the lightweight division and like a shark on the prowl he is already looking for his next meal. As was the case in his last fight, Castrello had a significant height advantage and it was interesting to see if that advantage would once again be a big factor come fight night. Indian superstar Randy Springs took out two former Gamma champions in his last couple of fights and now he looked ready for the real deal as he entered his first Gamma championship fight, riding an impressive six fight winning streak. This was indeed the spectacle the fans expected it to be as both Gamma warriors went toe to toe in a slugfest. Technique went right out of the window as this turned out to be a dirty grinding street fight of a brawl. From a distance they bombarded each other with cannonballs of punches and kicks like bullets fired from a shotgun. From a distance neither was able to gain the advantage and thus the champion closed the distance and got subsequently caught with his pants down as the challenger more than rose up to the challenge. Winner: Randy Springs by unanimous decision. 185 title - Saul Goodman © Vs Russian Obama Saul "Slip The Jab" Goodman had just successfully dispatched KnockOut FC graduate Bruce "B A M F" Diehard but another KnockOut FC graduate had already taken his spot. Former openweight champion in the famous KnockOut FC organization, Russian Obama made his promotional debut and what a chance he had to make it a great one. Facing an unfamiliar foe in unfamiliar territory gave him a chance to perform in the underdog position but sometimes being the underdog can take the pressure of your shoulders, it can allow you to spread your wings and fly higher than you’ve ever gone before. Was that the case in this fight though? Read on and find out … The battle for the coveted Gamma middleweight title took off with a tentative exchange but the action changed gears in the blink of an eye. Fists and kicks were flying about as the champion tried to establish his dominance from the get-go while the challenger refused to back down in his promotional debut. Both competitors were headstrong in their resolve to walk away with the title and in a tit for tat battle of attrition, only one man got to walk away the victor. Winner: Russian Obama by split decision. GAMMA#661 Keenan v Citizen (884465) – September 9 170 title - Ilya Mstislav Volkov © Vs Musta Laine Ilya Mstislav Volkov took Tim Pierno to school in his first defense since regaining the welterweight title. The Russian kickboxing bulldozer steamrolled right over poor Pierno and he made the message clear that he would do the same to any who would dare stand in his way. New arrival to Gamma’s main event scene Musta Laine was the one to rise above his peers and answered the champion’s open challenge with gusto as he was sporting a three fight winning streak. Both parties came to play as they started swinging wildly from the get-go. Ilya Mstislav Volkov was hell-bent on keeping the streak alive and he didn’t go back to his corner empty-handed as the crowd had come alive, roaring with excitement from the action they had just seen. But after the opening round it was the challenger who started coming alive. Strike after dangerous strike, exchange after exchange, Musta Laine was slowly gaining the upper hand and the champion did not like it so he put his wits to work. A clever plan developed in the mind of the sly fox named Ilya Mstislav Volkov. The champion looked to break the pace with fast clinch attempts, slipping in and out of danger faster than the speed of light as he clearly respected the notorious ground game of the challenger. Musta Laine didn’t really get to put his ground game to work but when he did get the champion on his backside he put an exclamation point behind the round, telling the fans and the judges straight up that he won the round. Winner: Musta Lain by unanimous decision. 145 title - Gareth Keenan © Vs Nico World Citizen Gareth Keenan "Investigates" put his sleuth skills to work in his last fight, he found the clues, cracked the case and found the path to victory against Lukasz Wolek. Now the newly crowned and still undefeated champion faced another former champion in Nico World Citizen. A striking affair was expected as both champion and challenger are known for their elite kickboxing ability. Gareth Keenan didn’t waste time and set the bar high as he pushed himself to the limit with a dire pace and kept it up until the final bell had rung. Nico World Citizen followed suit but he had a hard time climbing to the top of the mountain as Gareth Keenan defended his mountain with a seemingly bottomless barrel of strikes. The challenger used his clinch skills to elevate his chances of winning but the elusive champion proved a hard target and the multitude of failed clinch attempts eventually cost the challenger more than he had hoped to gain. Winner: Gareth Keenan by unanimous decision.

  17. There's no problem at all with training the same skill over and over. Yes, back to back sparring isn't good but secondaries or physicals can be trained relentlessly with no drop off.

  19. The flaws are as follows, if you do this basically bury all the ID restricted orgs permanently. If you remove the need to travel, fighters get instant fights whenever they want and they even get increased pay to go on top of this, then that is it for the little orgs, you can basically kill them off. That said, i do think QFC needs a makeover and some changes can be made. I am ok with #1 and i am also ok with having 3 QFC's, one for 1500 and one for 2000+, the other idea's have more risk involved that plusses. I would also reduce the total fights allowed in QFC because currently people are essentially padding their records there, maybe have it 2 fights per level, with level 1 allowing 3, even that is a LOT of fights for QFC level (total of 7). I would also like to have the QFC fights be considered as amateur fights, so gains in ranking should be less significant than wins in orgs.

  21. Why is it so bloody expensive to permanently retire a fighter? 90 days of VIP? That seems really steep. Is there a balancing related reason for this that I am missing? I mean, I get why it costs VIP to begin with. Simply to encourage a well supplied pool of fighters. But 90 days is really harsh for a relatively peripheral function in a slow paced game like this one. It certainly explains the awkward amount of 40 to 50 year old skeletons, which get recycled over and over to spin a few more rounds on the laundry merry-go-round. "C'mon ye old c**t, FIGHT for me!" "No ..... no please, my knees hurt ...." "That's too bad ...... I have reserved this stack of purple shirts ...... you'd love 'em!" "I'll do it ..... I still got that killer instinct, man!" "You sure do ......... you sure do ...."

  25. In small towns, getting QFC's is A BITCH. The region should be shanged from town to continent. America/Europe/Asia. No travel necessary. This will make QFC's way faster and better. I think this is an easy change to implement as well. Also: KT QFC's -- where you at dawg!

  28. MMA is purely a strategic sport if you actually know anything about it. You come in with a strategy in your head and if it does not work you change it, that's how it always worked in the sport of fighting. Why the hell would you not change tactics if you had the chance. If anything add sliders to see how aggressive you are going or something along those lines.

  29. This is mma not a strategy game. Do the tactics really don't have that huge impact on the game to cry over such minor details for tactics every round. Yes it would make us think we have more control over the fight but in the end the most important is our training hiddens and maybe the prediction tactics that would become useless if there was for each round. Maybe add a few new sliders would be better but really there is absolutely no need to make the tactics confusing

  35. Roll up. Roll up. Want your favourite movie scene or home video made into a gif? Well now you can do exactly that. Prices range from 5k-2M!! "DEAL NOW ON: First 10 customers get 30% off custom items!!" 1) PICK A GIF: 5-20k. Choose an exclusive gif I have generated from a selection of pre-made gifs from the archives. This gif (or part of) will be sold to one person so that you are confident that only you will have the only one (*in game). There's little to no chance that someone else has already taken those exact parts or frames and looped them in the same way that you might. I'm confident that everything I do is one of a kind. 2) PERSONALIZED: 20k-100k. You provide the video files; already edited, readily cut by yourself. and ready to loop. Quality is down to you. I will make the best with what you give me. In most cases I can make you a fun (in game) gif for 20-35k. 3) TAILOR-MADE: Professional quality 100k-2m. You give me the name of movie, the frames you want taken; eg time frame 15:30:12-15:44:02 and "you are good to go". [This option is really only if you want a first class gif suited for out of game purposes.] They takes a lot of real time and even my own investment money, so I charge like a real job for this one. I am willing to exchange, but the value of each project will be charged per hour. I will use the highest quality film available to achieve the absolute best results. You can pay with money (in game), vip time or a worthy exchange (maybe you make avatars in game or you can 3-d render for me or offer something that could enrich my service/life). I'm open to ideas and believe exchanging services is a thing of the future. MY WORK: The art programs I use I pay for already, so I'm not trying to subsidise that, but when it comes to streaming and downloading large video files I not only pay monthly for my art programs, but I also pay subscriptions to download movies and storage for enormous video files. The hours and hours of time and investment I will put in are mostly for my own fun and amusement, but this is a service that can be used out of game. If you think about it who else in the world will spend hours and hours of work making you a personalized gif? A gif that you can then use for as your own (share it facebook or add a little sound to make your own mini-music video)......Whatever the fuck you wanna do? Please don't ask about this service unless you are serious about using it. Cost too much ? If you want something made for in game and not so professional, then the Tailor-made option is probably not for you. PRICES: I charge per hour or by contract. I have some fixed prices but I will vary my pricing accordingly. I charge high for high end work, but as I am early in the game I will offer reductions on my first 10 clients for Personalized or Tailor-made projects. Interested? PM me on my managers page.... NOTE: watermark may be visible. I retain the right to vary my prices. I do not have rights to ownership of all my products, so using my gifs out of game could be a violation of copyright principles. If you intend to own the rights to a project (out of game) this must be discussed before hand, so that I can ensure I have rights to the material: of which a deal must be struck between you and myself.
