  1. JagWars Presents: Interview with Richie "The Leprechaun" Miles Ebay- Good Afternoon fight fans and welcome to JagWars. Today we have a special interview with new JAG competitor, Richie "The Leprechaun" Miles who come to us from Gadius. He's their former 185lb. Champ and one of JAG Battle Leagues many new contenders. Ebay- Hi Ritchie and welcome to JagWars. Richie: Thanks, it's great to be here and I'm looking forward to stepping in the cage soon. It's been a min and I'm coming off 2 big fights and back to back losses, in ready to regain some steam. Ebay- Tonight we have a title fight in the 185lb. division between 2 fighters you will surely have to face if you are to become the JAG champ. How closely will you be watching the fight and do you have a prediction? Richie: I can take both of them with one arm tied behind my back. I heard a rumor Kul has come over from Gladius, he and I had a great match we are the ones who should be talked about not some guy who is keeping our belt warm. Ebay- Could you please tell us about your experience at Gladius and why you decided to join JAG? Richie: My experience was great, I was on a great run, this guy Chael who is coming over for 170, runs his mouth. A lot, well I have gone the longest against him , be it he got the better of me I still made him take notice. Then I got over confident and over estimated Kul and he got me and my belt. Now im here to fight. I haven't fought in over a month and plan on fighting on Unfinished Business. Ebay- Your last 2 fights have ended in disappointing losses. How do plan to reverse your fortunes now that you joined the JAG org which features many great fighters such as the 2 fighting this evening? Richie: my training has changed, I'm more focused and determined than before. Two great fighters? If tonight is your great fighters I guess this is going to be easier than I thought. Ebay- Is there a particular fighter you have in mind for your next fight and would you like to call him out now, right here on JagWars? Richie: Right now, I just want to get back in and fight. I do have 3 fights I want to have here, I want rematches with Chael and Kul to avenge my losses and I want to shut Saku up, as long as he can win his next fight that is. Ebay- Thank you very much for your time and we look forward to seeing more of you in the ring Today's interview has been sponsored by JagWars & BadBoys Inc. (London). The official gear of JAG Battle League.

  2. I believe it does. The Island nutrition org is higher ranked than Dr. Dogood for example. And this can only be because of the number of sponsorships.

  6. http://i66.tinypic.com/eu2dzl.jpg Battle of the Behemoths Rd2 - Post Event Press Conference "So one day this dude, Camara something, comes up to me on the street and asks if I wanna come fight over in this org he's got going. I'm like, yeah, why not, I'm hungry. Then a coupla days later, he's like, 'Hey, I got this dude, Princess, Queen, or something...he needs a fight, you interested?' So again, I'm hungry, and I'm like, 'Sure, I can give the guy an attitude adjustment if ya like.' Next thing I know, he assigns me this random trainer dude. Yeah, acts like the guy's the best around. Knows it all, seen it all. Well, if you ask me, I think the guy is senile and doesn't know up from down, man! Leading up to the fight, all I'm hearing from my trainer is that this guy likes to throw...so let him wear himself out. Ok, so I listen to the guy...I'm a new fighter ya know, so who am I to change the plan around? I go in, this guy Anawalla can throw, but he ain't got anything that hurts...but he also doesn't seem to be tiring. I wanna hit this bastard back! But all I hear from my corner is, 'You can take it, let him gas himself!'. Yeah, I can take it man, I got a super fantastic chin baby, but dude, we gotta fight back! Anyways, they never let me really have a shot man. So I fired the old fart and I'm doing it my way next time. Yeah, it was a great show for the fans...and Anawalla, yeah, he got the win...but that's not hard when the other guy never really tests you right? We'll see what happens next time we face off. Oh, and there will be a next time..and it ain't gonna go down the same! But hey, the crowd seemed to love it man. And that's what matters right? Next time, I do the hitting!"

  12. Preview for Syn 602 – Jones vs. Nixon Featherweight Bout - Khal Stark (23-20-2/1-2 in Syn) vs. Blair Darrow (17-5-1/2-1 in Syn) The opener will be a re-match between featherweights Khal Stark and Blair Darrow. Stark is an MMA Helsinki veteran with lackluster results lately. Many suspect it is because he is likely to be caught up in the down slope of his career, given that he is 36 years old. Stark won only two out of his last eight fights. The things are looking completely different for Blair Darrow, who stands to be the clear favorite in this one. His most recent loss ended an eight fight winning streak and he looks to get back on track. Welterweight Bout - Oliver Hedman Karlsson (20-13/0-3 in Syn) vs. Gum Shoe (19-9/2-2 in Syn) Oliver Hedman Karlsson is an other MMA Helsinki veteran, who has yet to adapt to Syn. Three losses have definitely put him on the back burner and he has his struggle cut out for him if he wants to make it off the undercard. His opponent will be a former two time welterweight champion of MMA Helsinki in Gum Shoe. Despite having both fought at MMA Helsinki, the two never crossed paths before. Super Heavyweight Bout - Cyrus Great (16-12/2-0 in Syn) vs. Ijsa Mohammed (16-13/Syn debut) This one is an other re-match between two fighters, who faced each other before in a fight that went the distance. Cyrus Great is a fighter, who’s record belies his ability. He has a varied attack and one of the best ground games in this weight class. His opponent, Ijsa Mohammed, is massive! Even for a super heavyweight. He has fought all around the globe and came through DARE to make it to Syn. He truly is a hulking slugger of a man! Both will be eager to keep their respective winning streak going. Middleweight Bout - Gurgen Davidyan (16-6-2/4-2 in Syn) vs. Angelo Mendez (17-10/1-2 in Syn) Gurgen Davidyan is pretty much the quintessential decision fighter, which makes him very successful but sort of unpopular with the fans, who are often more brain damaged than their heroes. Stylistically the opposite holds true for his opponent, who had mixed results (at best) lately, but wins and loses in spectacular fashion, which makes him less successful but more popular. A clash of philosophies! Middleweight Bout - Kalervo Kaunismieli (42-17-2/20-11-2 in Syn) vs. Aedan Declan (19-5/2-1 in Syn) Being one of the definitive veterans of Syn and the last man to beat Russell Tyrone Jones, Kalervo Kaunismieli is also a former two time Syn middleweight champion and one of the darlings of the division. In this featured bout of the undercard he will face Aedan Declan. The Irish fighter is considered by many to be in his prime. So now is as good a time as any to make an all out assault on the rankings. A victory over one of Syn's most established fighters would indeed be a major statement! Main Card Welterweight Bout - Pavel Savkov (20-9/4-4 in Syn) vs. Jonathan Harding (23-12-1/2-0 in Syn) Pavel Sakov has proven himself to be a reliable competitor by winning some and losing some at the sport’s highest level. He has yet to prove though, that he is more than a middle of the division fighter. And he will have to overcome a seasoned fighter in Jonathan Harding. Harding is a long time veteran of the game and has collected four straight wins under new management. Two of these in Syn. So he is no pushover and the hopes for one late run up the rankings surely will motivate him to the maximum! Middleweight Bout - Junkyard Dog (29-12/2-2 in Syn) vs. Derek Trucks (13-2/Syn debut) One of MMA’s most reckless brawlers, the Junkyard Dog is currently enjoining a two fight winning streak and came through the ranks of DARE. He is a knockout artist with a KO ratio of 80%. Accumulated over the course of 29 victories. He will face an opponent, who is considered a prospect and was a two time middleweight champ in the now defunct Extreme Fighting Association. A rough welcome party for Dereck Trucks, that will tell us much about this up and coming fighter. Welterweight Bout - Benson Whyte (23-7/2-1 in Syn) vs. Yamato Take (19-3/1-1 in Syn) As many others, also Benson Whyte did come through the ranks of DARE and is by far and wide the greatest welterweight in the young history of that organization. He is still in his prime and his reach extends to the top leagues. Whyte is hellbent to carve his name into MMA history! He has the scary KO ratio of over 91 % to so so. But his hands of stone will meet one of the trustiest jawlines in the sport. Enter Yamato Take, who (even at 36 years of age) is still a capable foe and a Madness MMA welterweight champion with multiple defenses to his name in his own right. He is one of the toughest veterans around, who has never tapped out and was never knocked out and maintained a great record so deep into his career. It is like a clash of the proverbial irresistible force meeting the immovable object. Light Heavyweight Bout - Tsoko Chikatchawan (22-5/6-3 in Syn) vs. Risto Rautio (19-6/5-3 in Syn) Just like the main event, also the co-main event is contested at 205. It is a re-match between two guys on the verge of their breakthrough into the main event picture! Tsoko Chikatchawan losses in Syn only came at the hands of Evil Nixon. But three straight wins have catapulted him back into the immediate neighborhood of title contention. He won the first fight against Risto Rautio decisively. But that doesn’t mean that he should take that re-match lightly, for Risto Rautio is a dangerous knockout artist, who happens to be at the same career crossroads as Chikatchwan: At an identical 29 years of age, he is enjoining a three fight winning streak in Syn, too. The winner stands to become a part of the main event picture. The loser however, will be in a dangerous and very undesirable spot – back in the second row among Syn's most hungry, where the road to the top is at it’s steepest! Light Heavyweight Bout for the title - Russell Tyrone Jones (27-6-1/7-1 in Syn) vs. Evil Nixon (34-6-2/16-3-1 in Syn) The main event will see two of Syn's biggest stars collide for the first time! Russell Tyrone Jones is all the talk right now, being a two division champ (185 and 205). He is currently regarded as the best p4p fighter on the planet! But winning this upcoming fight would make a future hall of fame nomination even more of a no-brainer! For he is up against Syn’s Evil Nixon! Nixon is a former two time 205 champion and one of Syn's most consistent high level performers. Should Nixon secure the gold, he would be one of only a few to do so for a record third time. And would probably solidify his status as the most dominant 205er yet, given that his last title run saw him defend the title eight times!

But hell, how can you get a shot when shit's not maintained right? I mean, can't people do their job and shit? What do I mean? You know damn well what I mean! That Kora dude, yeah, he got the win. And that's all good and all, but he got a little help ya know? The fight never really got started ya know? The guy who's responsible for cleaning up the ring between matches needs to do his damned job! You, and everybody else watching, knows that he didn't clean up the drool that that Jurmu dude left on the mat after he was knocked friggin' senseless by Barkov in the fight before mine! I slip, Kora gets a cheap takedown in, and that changes things totally in his favor. Never woulda happened if they could do their damned jobs around this place...these guys who don't do their job...union probably. What? Yeah, of course it's not in the ToTT, anything about the slip and crap! You think they're going to highlight the mismanagement of the arena and stuff? Yeah right. Anyways, congrats to Kora on the win...but he should really be thanking the hell outa Barkov for knocking Jurmu into next week...and Jurmu for being such a drooling slob! Just clean up the f'ing ring man..." *wanders off muttering to himself*

  37. Syn 601 report - Undercard Asa Sharp found his ambitions to make statement in his Syn debut at welterweight spoiled by Forrest Worthington. The veteran proved to be too much for up and coming Asa Sharp, whom he controlled with a suffocating clinch and ground game. Sharp even came dangerously close to being knocked out in the third, but hung in there to see a final bell. Worthington is now on a three fight win streak. Léonard Lucy won in this slug-fest between two violent 205ers. And as predicted it didn’t take long. After less then 100 seconds, Lucy secured himself the KO of the night. But he only managed to do so after nearly having been floored himself. Because Phil Beddo had him rocked early. Lucy did recover though and a counter uppercut hit Peddo flush, resulting in his eleventh KO loss. At only 29 years of age. Dangerously shopworn indeed. In a very closely contested fight at lightweight, Barnabas Ungar fell short in what was now his third consecutive bid for a win in Syn. But once again he lost. This time at the hands of Jack Douglas, one of the grittiest veterans around. The fight was not an easy one to call for the judges, as it was insanely close. Both men with comparable output on the feet and in the clinch, turning things into a matter of preference for the judges. Not enough for Barnabas Ungar, who still has to land a victory in Syn. At featherweight, Archie “Decision” Griffiths lived up to his moniker once again. In a fight, that was contested as straight up kickboxing match, Griffiths badly outgunned Garrick Head, landing over 35 leg kicks and taking every round in the process, leaving no room for doubt in the mind of the judges. Griffiths thereby evened out his Syn record (3-3) and ended a two fight losing streak. Whereas Garrick Head has now lost three in a row. The last undercard bout at welterweight saw a fight, that was unsurprisingly contested mostly on the ground. Arthur Halo found his busy submission game countered however by Paul Hunt, who proved to have the better positioning and managed to steal points by way of enforcing some ground and pound, whereas Abu Dhabi Champ Halo tried to make it a pure grappling affair. Also, for the brief periods that this fight was contested on the feet, Hunt had the better end for himself, outlanding Halo, who now has lost four in a row. At 37 years of age it has become obvious, that the luster is coming off. Main Card The main card started wit a rubber match between two hard hitting lightweights, Sni Probong and Rudy Rhod. And once again it ended in a very close split decision, with Rudy Rhod getting the nod. It was really close and could have gone either way. But ultimately the judges seemed to like Rhod’s work ethic in the clinch, where he was the busier of the two. For Sni Probong this loss somewhat stalls what had been a stellar run towards title contention. Whereas Rhod has now tied together a three fight winning streak, increasing his chances to fight for contendership soon. At super heavyweight, Jimi Powell amazingly continued his run as a late bloomer. He won his second ever Syn fight as well, at the ripe old age of 35 and with over 50 bouts on the clock, landing him his 30th career win. The GAMMA veteran and former MMMA champion showed a seasoned performance by relentlessly chasing the takedown and using his advantage with an ice cold demeanor, whenever he ended up on top. Dmitri Zaitsev certainly wasn’t helpless on the ground, but Powell’s ground game was more compact, opportunistically improving position with little fuzz whenever possible. The amount of ground and pound that Powell could enforce sealed the deal for him in a fight, that was otherwise closely contested. Super heavyweight contender Brad Lansar landed arguably one of the biggest wins of his career against veteran and Syn icon, Obelix De Gaul! A first round knockout, mostly the result of brutal wall and stall tactics, sealed the deal. After failing to secure the victory in his first Syn fight, Lansar has reminded everybody with this potentially career defining performance, that the hype around him is real! He has made a giant leap in the rankings and now there are several match making options to test his mettle. The co-main event at featherweight turned out to be the bout of the night. Once again, Blake Green and Daniel Larusso had a go at it. A pure striker’s affair that got the crowd going and saw high output by both fighters. But again it was Blake Green, who got the nod from the judges. He now beat Larusso for a third time, slamming down the page on this chapter – probably once and forever. Whereas Larusso brought the more active and successful kicking game, Green outgunned him with his hands, which ultimately did enough to sway the judges – and rightfully so. Green remains one of the premier featherweights in the world! If the co-main event was the fight of the night, the main event wasn’t far behind. An insane war of attrition in the clinch, that turned out to be an elaborate hockey fight, saw “Crossbones” Brock Rumlow emerge victorious. His high octane output of headhunting dirty boxing proved to be too much for Samed Mahmoud, who was seen as the favorite by many, going into this bout. But Brock Rumlow showed that he, even at 37 years of age, is still pretty much a competitor. He outworked and outlanded Mahmoud on the feet, taking the first two rounds handily. Only the last round was somewhat close, so that Rumlow got the nod by the judges. It was the 40th career win for Rumlow, who is now in a great spot to be considered the next challenger at 185 for p4p king Russell Tyrone Jones.

  38. Preview for Syn 601 After the milestone show, that was Syn 600 – All In, Syn is now making it’s way towards 700 shows. And it starts tonight in the Wombley Arena in London! 10 bouts are about to take place, many of which stand to have implications for future contendership. Here is the rundown of the card – brought to you by Bud Li ….. I mean Hellbent! Welterweight Bout - Forrest Worthington (19-11/5-3 in Syn) vs. Asa Sharp (16-5/Syn debut) Debuting at 170 is Asa Sharp. A knockout artist, who spread terror so far in the now defunct MMA Gladiators and KOFC organizations, he now looks to secure himself a rank among MMA’s elite. Trying to put a dent into these lofty ambitions is Forrest Worthington. The proud Canadian is going into his ninth fight in Syn and stands to be a stern test for the up and coming Asa Sharp. Light Heavyweight Bout - Philo Beddo (17-12/1-1 in Syn) vs. Léonard Lucy (8-2/0-1 in Syn) This one stands to be a fight between to slugging light heavyweights and as such will be very unlikely to go the distance. Both men try to leave a lasting impression in Syn. And both have a preferred M.O. to do so. Knocking their man the hell out! This one could go either way. Beddo is quite the glass cannon and also just flying in last minute, which raises the question if he takes this encounter serious. Lucy has the more consistent record, but suffered both of his losses consecutively coming into this fight. So is he quite ready for MMA on it’s highest stage? Is he ready for Syn? Lightweight Bout - Barnabas Ungar (11-3/0-2 in Syn) vs. Jack Douglas (30-23/9-9 in Syn) Barnabas Ungar has made his mark in the fighting game as a KOFC lightweight champion and brings high level grappling prowess into the fight. But despite trying twice, he has yet to taste victory in Syn. In his third bid he will be facing Jack Douglas, a seasoned veteran of 18 fights in Syn. Douglas may very well be one of the toughest men in all of MMA! Despite over 50 career fights and having been bested 23 times, he only lost two fights decisively (1 KO/1 submission). He is basically a walking “gritty veteran” cliché. And a very valid one at that. Featherweight Bout - Garrick Head (22-11/0-1 in Syn) vs. Archie Griffiths (16-6-1/2-3 in Syn) This battle between two mohawks stands to be a good one, for both men have much to gain and to lose. Coming off of a loss in his Syn debut, Garrick Head is looking to even things out against Archie Griffiths, who has yet to rise above a minor gatekeeper role. Both men are currently stalled by two consecutive losses, so this may very well prove to be a pivotal fight for the victor, whereas the loser may come depressingly close to receive his walking papers. Welterweight Bout - Arthur Halo (27-17/0-1 in Syn) vs. Paul Hunt (21-14-1/1-1 in Syn) The last fight of the undercard is a collision between two journeyman, who bring the combined experience of 80 fights to the cage. The two BJJ black belts are both dangerous ground fighters. So this is one that will likely be to the liking of the grappling purists. Especially Halo has something to prove. He is 37 years and many evil tongues claim, that his best days are behind him, pointing to the three consecutive losses, that he has suffered leading into this upcoming bout. Defusing these suspicions will be no easy task against MMA Helsinki veteran Paul Hunt, who is six years the younger and has proven himself as someone, who is tough to put away. Main Card Lightweight Bout - Rudy Rhod (14-7-1/3-3 in Syn) vs. Sni Probong (19-13/5-3 in Syn) The first main card bout of the evening is a rubber match between Rudy "5th Element" Rhod and Sni Probong. Rhod won a closely contested fight in their first outing, but was plagued with mixed results ever since, including a unanimous decision loss in the rematch. TBut he is now enjoying a two fight win streak. Sni Probong may have lost their first contest, but then put together five wins in a row – all the way to title contention, where he went the distance with Syn 155 champion Koh Ibu. Stylistically this one may pan out to be a very interesting fight. Both men have beaten each other and went the distance twice. Both are excellent strikers, so this one will likely be contested, where most fans like to see it: On the feet and swinging! Super Heavyweight Bout - Dmitri Zaitsev (17-8/4-4 in Syn) vs. Jimi Powell (29-20-2/1-0 in Syn) Next up is one of two consecutive fights at super heavyweight. And in true super heavyweight fashion, this one is not very likely at all to see a final bell. Because in their combined 76 fights, these two fighters only went to the judges six times! Jimi "Powerhouse" Powell is a veteran of over 50 fights and is trying to make one last run up the rankings, making it to Syn in the autumn of his career, winning his first ever fight in Syn. Something that he would love to repeat against Syn 265+ staple Dmitri Zaitsev. Both have the means to hurt each other and seem very well matched all across the board. But don’t expect a stalemate because of it. Somebody will be knocked out in this one! Super Heavyweight Bout - Obelix De Gaul (33-20/19-14 in Syn) vs. Brad Lansar (17-5-1/0-1 in Syn) The same is likely to hold true for the following fight at 265+. Brad Lansar has come up the ranks through Syn’s satellite promotion, the Amsterdam based DARE organization, which is known for it’s competitive matchmaking. With 28 years of age, Lansar is entering his prime and is regarded by many pundits as a man for the coming years. But there was some heavy rain on his parade, when he lost his Syn debut. He is now trying to erase that loss. And he has to do it against one of the most experienced fighters in Syn, "Le Graisseux" Obelix De Gaul! While there is no room for debate about De Gaul’s dangerous hands, which can still put any man to sleep, he is getting up there in age and many assume that his best days are behind him. But he carries the experience into the cage. The experience of having already been where Brad Lansar wants to get. Lansar may have a trick up his sleeve, though. Because not only is he no stranger to duke it out on the feet. He also brings a sneaky submission game – something not often seen at super heavyweight. Featherweight Bout - Blake Green (32-6-1/9-2 in Syn) vs. Daniel Larusso (43-24-1/19-14-1 in Syn) This fight between two extremely experienced fighters, who have crossed paths twice in the past, is contested between two decorated featherweights. Blake Green is one of Syn’s finest at 145 and is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest featherweights in the world. He just suffered his first loss after seven consecutive wins, at the Hands of the wildly popular Street Fighter. He will fight a man, who he went the distance against twice: the last ever Syn bantamweight champion Daniel Larusso. Larusso has won three out of his last four and brings an iron jaw to the table, that continues to hold up, despite an amazing 68 career fights. This may very well be Larusso’s last bid for future title contention, for he is 38 years old. But given the qualities that he brings to the table and a résumé of having fought (and often won) against all the finest of Syn’s lowest weight classes, he is tough to deny based on age alone. Middleweight Bout - Sameh Mahmoud (31-5/3-1 in Syn) vs. Brock Rumlow (39-9-2/7-3 in Syn) The main event of the evening could very well bring forth a new challenger for the 185 crown, which is of course held by the current p4p king Russell Tyrone Jones. A man, who Sameh Mahmoud went the distance against in a first attempt to obtain 185 glory. To do it again he has to go through Brock Rumlow, though. A man, who he has beaten before, but who bounced back with two straight wins since. Rumlow is rumored to fancy a transition down to 170 soon. So one has to wonder if his mind is where it should be. But if he is on, he will proof to be a difficult test for Mahmoud. That is if he can overcome Mahmoud’s dominant clinch game, which did cost him the first fight. Should Rumlow win this time around, future plans to go down to 170 may very well end up being delayed.
