Hey, welcome back to a Preview and to be quite honest i felt like jumping in lava after i just lost everything that i wrote so here you go, the preview for MADNESS CLOWN CHAOS 3, sorry if it won't be that good cause i'm gonna try writing as fast as possible. Ade Absame VS Joe Hooks from united states with a record of 0-2 we have Joe Hooks who has a record 0-2 and is still looking for his first win. Ade absame comes from Somalia and is also coming in with a record of 0-2. The good thing about this match is that one of the fighters will receive their first win. The bad thing about this match is that someone will leave the cage with an ugly record of 0-3. Fat "Mr. Pig" Boy VS Liam Davidson From India, Fat Boy is coming in with a record of 1-0 which makes him the first undefeated fighter to step in the cage at MCC3. From England, Liam Davidson is coming in with a record of 1-1. Should be a pretty interesting bout! Alexander Anderson VS Bjj "Grapple" Catch Wrestler Alexander Anderson is coming in with a record of 0-1 and is looking to get his first win tonight against his opponent who is a BJJ expert and owns the Brown Belt. Bjj C. W. is 1-0 and has earned Sub Of The Night in his debut at Madness Clown Chaos. "The Conjurer" Olyn Seran VS Jacob "Baby Boy" Graham Both fighters 0-1 and are looking for their first win. Olyn Seran is coming in from the united states and so is "baby boy" Jacob Graham. Graham is a muay thai artist while Seran is a pretty good muay thai artist. Torkel "Mjölnir" Bystrom VS Marcelinho Lima If you guys don't know Mjolnir means the hammer of thor which was depicted as one of the most dangerous weapons in Norse Mythology capable of leveling mountains. Bystorm is coming in with a record of 3-7 and has lost all of his matches since debuting in Madness MMA, there is still hope because his opponent also lost his last 2 matches in Madness MMA (he did win his debut tho).Lima is coming in with a record of 9-14. DAngelo Hawkins VS Kazuhira "Buzzsaw" Takayama Hawkins coming in with a record of 1-0 while Takayama is making his MMA debut here tonight. Both fighters could benefit massively from this match Cal "Calizard" Robbins VS Vladimir "In Your Face Vlad" Punchsky With a record of 7-5 Punchsky lost his last 2 matches in Madness MMA but won his debut back at the Reawakening and also received Fight of the Night! Cal Robbins has a record of 7-16 and lost his last match. Both fighters looking to get back on the right track! Dennis "The Hugger" Baba VS Tommy "The Tank" Murphy Murphy coming in with a record of 3-1 and he won his last match in 26 seconds by submission and also received Sub of the Night. Baba is undefeated and holds a record of 2-0. He won all his matches my KO in the first round. I hope he gives me a hug! Co-MainEvent Jim Fixit VS Javier "T.I.D." Vasquez Jim Fixit is going through depresion right now and i honestly feel sorry for him. His manager hasn't been seen in nearly week and rumour has it he moved on a private island and is using his savings to survive. That's his way of releasing stress i guess Javier Vasquez won all of his matches by TKO and is currently 3-1. He got submitted in his last match by Massive Wanker who also won Sub Of the Night for the exact same submission. Vasquez feeling great tho, he's keeping his morale up and always remembers to keep a smile on his face! MainEvent James Osterberg VS Gun Seok Bak Bak is an extremely talented individual and has held a title before in GAMMA RISING STARS. He got an "of the night award in all of his matches in MADNESS MMA" he also holds an impressive record of 10-4 which is extremely good. Osterberg is an Exceptional wrestler with a Black Belt in BJJ. He won both his matches in MMA and even received Sub of the night for one of them. He is gonna want to bring the fight to the ground. If he does that he has a high chance of winning

It starts after all the brackets fill up and the engine disregards the stand up sliders during the fight.

https://www.mmatycoon.com/fighterprofilemanager.php?FID=350764 Hello ladies and gentlemen. My name is Chip Nickel and I'm an MMA fighter and journalist (in that order). Welcome to my new blog. Here you'll find information about my career, fighter interviews, feature pieces, spelling and grammatical errors, plus many confusing switches between third and first person. After that thrilling introduction I know you'll all be excited and no doubt have some questions, so I'll now attempt to answer a few. Why aren't you doing this on Buzz Chip? Because Buzz is a sewerage pit filled with subhuman scum. Chip Nickel doesn't write in a sewerage pit, Chip Nickel is old school, Chip Nickel is classy, Chip Nickel is a blog man. Why is this being published in the General Game Discussion section Chip? Well where else would I publish it, in the Fighter Interview section that's viewed only by losers, and nerds, and loser nerds? Readers of Chip Nickel are none of those things. Readers of Chip Nickel are above that. They're General Game Discussion types of people. And if any mods are thinking about moving this blog then just know that Chip can write an exposé on you and your undoubtedly full closet of skeletons quick snap! Now I don't claim to have any direct evidence against our mods, yet, but lets be honesty if you're the sort of person that does a thankless*, joyless, unpaid task like being a mod then baby you've got things to hide. Any further questions can be asked in the comments section below. They will most likely remain unanswered due to Chips busy schedule and lack of interest in his readers undoubtedly mundane and uninspired questioning. As mentioned above in between fighting I'll be conducting fighter interviews. For a taste of my work follow the link to a previous interview I conducted with former #1 P4P fighter and current hardcore tripper Akoni Gray. Be warned though, it is located in that loser nerd section. http://www.mmatycoon.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=64006 By now you're probably, and rightly, thinking about nominating Chip for a Pulitzer prize. Well don't. Pulitzer was a hack and if he was alive today I, Chip Nickel, would spit in his stupid hack face. As a Florida native I'll be including a bonus to each blog entry. This bonus will be a headline, without further explanation, from a local Florida newspaper. This week's headline is from the Tallahassee Tribune: Man punched so hard in the face that his legs fell off. Never change Florida. That about wraps up my first blog entry. Stay tuned as next time I'll be bringing you a pulsating review of my first two professional fights. Chip "The Scoop" Nickel, signing off. *You guys actually do a good job, thanks

Franky was the original owner of Syn, good guy. Kind of brings back old memories I remember we (meaning GAMMA and Syn) were fighting for arena spaces back in the day when there was no depreciating returns and we were spamming events. I just had a look, we had 33 events in the summer of 2009, Syn had 34................those were the days.

I'm working on it haha Work has been a beast this week but I'll get it done, no worries.

RAPID FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIP SHOWDOWN IN TOKYO 23 PREVIEW HARD KNOCKS ARENA Xavier: Hello, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Rapid Fighting preview of Showdown in Tokyo 23! I’m your host, Esiah Xavier, and as always, joining me in the booth is the colorful Furious Styles! Styles: What’s up, Tokyo!? Are you ready for another exciting night of fights that Rapid Fighting Championship brings to you!? Xavier: As is the tradition, Rapid Fighting Championship has an outstanding lineup tonight that promises to bring a lot of hard-hitting action from warriors who are battling for position and the shot at a title! Tonight, there are two Welterweight fights, one Heavyweight fight, five big Bantamweight fights, and two Light Heavyweight fights! Styles: Five Bantamweight fights will definitely have a major ripple effect in that division! Every fighter tonight knows there’s a chance to vault over some of the competition, especially since there are no titles on the line tonight! Champions will have an opportunity to scout the competition, and each fighter tonight has a chance to show the champions what they’re all about! Xavier: Starting us off tonight is Josu Aingeru versus Osman Dawoud! Styles: Wow, those are some unique names! Aingeru and Dawoud sound like a cool law firm! They should hook that up! Xavier: Actually, that does have a ring to it! Styles: Right!? You’re feelin’ me! Xavier: Aingeru steps into the cage with an impressive 10-2 record that he, along with his LEGION OF DOOM associates, are very proud of! He had an 8-fight win streak broken by Akoni Jackson at Rapid Fire Championship 26, and since that point, he’s been back and forth in the win and loss column! He recently defeated Alzonz Appalusu at Rapid Fighting Championship 39, and obviously wants to carry over the momentum of that victory against Dawoud tonight! Styles: The shorter and lighter Dawoud steps into the cage with an equally impressive 10-2 record, and The StepDads are definitely proud of this seasoned veteran. Currently riding a 6-fight win streak, and previously having a 4-fight win streak, Dawoud has shown that his fists are more than capable of ending a fight quickly! All but two of his matches have stopped in the first round, so it’s full speed ahead for him, and that aggression has obviously served him very well! He also has championship experience and credentials from battles in the Some organization, and that is a major advantage! Xavier: Similarly, Aingeru has had most of his fights end in the first round, and he, too, has championship experience from titles he’s won in this organization! This promises to be a high-impact, hard-hitting fight and we all enjoy those! Styles: Yeah we do! For me, those are the best kinds of fights because it’s just toe-to-toe mano y mano, and may the best man win! That takes guts, and you must have guts to make it in this industry! Xavier: Well said, Styles, and I don’t think either man will back down from the other if they choose to stand in front of each other and test the other man’s ability to take a punch! This is definitely a tough fight to pick a winner from because there are numerous similarities, but I’ll choose Aingeru by knockout because he won a tough fight recently and was able to finish it in two minutes and twenty-four seconds! Styles: In that case, I’ll take the man who has a 6-fight win streak and a ton of confidence! Dawoud wins this bad boy by knockout! PREDICTIONS: Styles – Dawoud by KO; Xavier – Aingeru by KO Styles: Next up we have the big boys of the night as the heavyweights hit the cage! Sven Svensson, easy enough name to remember, does battle against…am I reading this right? His opponent’s name is Suge Knight!? Suge Knight!? He is aware of the situations involved with Suge Knight, right!? Does he really want to associate himself with such an incredibly controversial figure!? Xavier: Apparently he does, Styles! Styles: Wow, man, that takes a big set of balls to do that! There are people after Suge Knight and believe me, many people are very happy about him being incarcerated! He’s locked up for 25 or so years! Xavier: It’s unfortunate for Mr. Knight, but he’s been embroiled in legal issues for many years, and the manslaughter charges against him were overwhelming! He got 28 years on a plea deal, so you know the evidence was deep and damning! Styles: No kidding! Anyway, Sven Svensson, who calls himself “The Valhalla Viking”, which is cool as hell to me because I really like that TV series, Vikings! The History channel is brilliant for having that show, and who doesn’t like Ragnar Lothbrok!? He’s bad ass! Svensson is pretty bad as too, really, with a very respectable 13-3 record! Dude had a 12-fight win streak at one point in time, and that’s major! Add in the fact he’s been a champion and he has all the accolades a great young fighter would want! Keep in mind he’s only 21 years old so he has a long way to go and a whole lot more domination! It seems that Conor The Barbarian is a thorn in his side as they’ve fought 3 times and Conor has won 2 of those fights! At Rapid Fighting Championship Showdown in Tokyo 20, we saw that happen! Xavier: “Sugar” Knight has one hell of a task ahead of him! At 8-6, he’s struggled a bit with his career, and having to battle a devastating force like Svensson, who is 7 years younger, will be a tall task! However, having that age difference gives him more overall life experience, and while some don’t think that has much influence, you’d be surprised by that! In addition, he’s from Compton and one assumes he’s had tough fights before! The Underground Fights Enterprise members believe in Knight, and there’s a reason he’s stepping into this battle! He’s won 5 fights in a row previously, but had a 2-fight win streak snapped by Axel Aethelwulf at Rapid Fighting Championship in Tokyo 20! I assume that loss has left a bit of a sting in his pride and that could very well provide great motivation for him to get things turned around! What better way to turn things around than to defeat a young lion like Svensson!? Styles: If he’s able to pull off this upset, because let’s be real, that would be an upset, it would definitely put him square on the championship title shot map! However, I simply don’t see that happening, X! Xavier: I can see why you wouldn’t, Styles, and that’s all good! I’m going to choose Knight to pull off the upset in this fight! I think that recent loss made him more focused and he may catch Svensson being overconfident and cocky! Styles: Overconfident and cocky!? Naw, man! Svensson knows what he brings to the table and he’s going to deliver another brutal knockout to his resume! PREDICTIONS: Styles – Svensson by KO; Xavier – Knight by KO Styles: Moving on to the much smaller but faster fighters, Branimir Simeon steps into the cage against Genji Kamogawa! That sounds like a strong Japanese name! Simeon is currently 8-3 and the LEGION OF DOOM speaks highly of this man! After a 4-fight win streak, he’s had his ups and downs, but the last 2 fights have been wins by TKO, so he’s proven himself to be capable in the cage! At Rapid Fighting Championship Showdown in Tokyo 19, he bested Kreepee Krawlee – now there’s the name of a man whose parents definitely see things differently – in a third round win. Most of his fights have finished in the first round, so I expect him to be aggressive against Kamogawa! Xavier: Similar too Simeon, Kamogawa has held a 4-fight win streak! Unfortunately for him, he had an opportunity to win gold against Anthony Shiina at Rapid Fighting Championship 32, but he lost to a nasty Americana, and he lost the fight after that as well! He righted the ship against Chok Delarock at Rapid Fighting Championship 40, and he’ll look to continue with that momentum! Styles: Hey, X, I’ve got some insight for you! Xavier: What’s up? Styles: My sources tell me that despite that last win, Kamogawa’s been a bit dour and mopey around the gym lately! Xavier: Seriously!? He just won a match recently! Styles: I know, man, but it seems like some woman he’s dating is stressing him out! As I always say, women and combat sports don’t mix unless she’s a fighter, too! There’s no way for them to understand what the hell combat athletes really go through unless she trains for it too! Xavier: That’s a shame because I figured with his height and weight advantage, he’d be able to give problems to Simeon, but if he’s having issues with a woman then there’s no way I’m comfortable considering him to win! Styles: That makes two of us, X! I’m definitely choosing Simeon to win this fight by knockout! Xavier: I echo that sentiment! PREDICTIONS: Xavier – Simeon by KO; Styles – Simeon by KO Xavier: Keeping the bantamweight action going is Pal Hasani vs. Ichiro Suzuki! Styles: Suzuki is a cool name, and they make great products, too! There’s also a violin teaching method named The Suzuki Method. Xavier: You know that!? Styles: Don’t sound so surprised, X! I’m a man of many tastes and I can be refined when I want to be! Xavier: Refined!? You forget that we’ve hung out together in various sports bars and karaoke clubs, and I’ve seen you act a damn fool! Styles: Hey, X! I told you I live life the way I see fit, and I have no regrets! Well, I’ve regretted a couple of times waking up next to a woman who…well, let’s just say there were a couple of times I pretended there was a fire and I hustled a woman out of my place, gave her some Uber money, and called it a day! Xavier: Oh, yeah, very refined and classy! Styles: Don’t hate! Anyway, “The Cobra” Hasani is a solid 11-4 heading into this fight, and The Stepdads speak about this young man’s potential quite a bit! His best win streak has been 4 in a row, and he’s had a few losses between streaks, but more importantly, the last time he faced Ichiro Suzuki, he lost by unanimous decision at Rapid Fighting Night 10! I assure you both of these men remember that last squabble and will use some of the experiences from that fight for this one! Xavier: That would be astute of both of them to take advantage of that previous encounter to improve upon what did and didn’t work! “Broom-Broom” is an impressive 6-1, but he had that 6-fight win streak snapped by Hasani, as you said! Prior to that, he’s submitted every opponent he’s faced, and he managed to do that by the second round, an indication that he’s aggressive and skilled! We have yet another classic standup versus ground fighter, and Suzuki will definitely look to get this fight off its feet and to the ground as soon as possible! Styles: “Broom-Broom”!? That’s…different! I could see if it was “Boom-Boom” or “Vroom-Vroom”, but hey, to each their own! I think Hasani will manage to keep this fight standing and will drop bombs on Suzuki until he can’t take it anymore! I’m rollin’ with Hasani by knockout in this one! Xavier: As for me, I’ll take Suzuki to win this by submission! The pain of that loss previously has to be prominent inside of him, and, naturally, he wants to prove to himself that he can beat Hasani! I think he does it! PREDICTIONS: Xavier – Suzuki by Submission; Styles – Hasani by KO Xavier: The next combatants to enter the cage of pain will be Yez Pleez and Five Finger! Styles: Hold up! Yez Pleez and Five Finger!? What in the blue hell!? Has a psychological evaluation been performed on both of these fighters!? One is named after a cordial phrase, but he can’t spell, apparently, and the other dude can count, which is good, but he’s basically named after body parts!? Xavier: I knew you wouldn’t be able to let these go! I concur that their names are unusual, there’s no doubt about it, but I’m sure they have their reasons for having their names as they are! Styles: Well, sure, and I know the reason why! Xavier: I have a feeling where this is going but I’ll ask anyway. What’s the reason their names are what they are? Styles: It’s simple, really. Both of these fighters have strong mental issues they need to overcome, and by being simple with their names, they give themselves more space and time to focus on those heavier concerns! Xavier: Well, I definitely didn’t expect to hear that from you, and that’s an interesting perspective to take! Styles: What, did you expect me to say because they’re both crazy!? Come on, X, we all know they are! Xavier: That’s more like it. “Yeep” is 6-4 but has lost 2 in a row, so he’s looking to turn things around against Finger! He began his career well by winning 4 in a row, but he’s struggled to maintain any kind of win streak after that! When he’s locked in, he’s capable of using solid boxing skills to beat his opponents with! Styles: “Death Punch”…oh, I get it now! He really likes that band! Well, seeing that he’s 21, I suppose I’m not too surprised! They do have some great songs, though! Fellow members of YABAI tell me that, despite his loss to Aleksan Nokkenson, Finger has been locked in and has been training very diligently with the desire to prove to everyone that he deserves to be in the fight game! His muay thai skills are touted and I expect him to lean on those skills in this fight! Xavier: Pleez has shown solid ability on his feet but if Finger’s muay thai skills are that good, he’ll definitely have to watch out for his kicks! If he can manage to stick and move, that will reduce the chances of him getting tagged by hard kicks and increase his chance to win this fight! Styles: Not so fast, X! Xavier: What now!? Styles: My sources tell me that Pleez has been trippin’ big time as of late! Apparently the dude has been playing Madden 20 and FIFA 19 for hours instead of getting his butt into the gym like he’s supposed to! Xavier: Unreal! Now don’t get me wrong! I enjoy video games myself, and I can’t wait to play NBA2K20 which I’ll buy later today, but that’s another story. I don’t have a guy in a cage trying to knock my head off or twist a body part until I tap out in extreme pain! Styles: Well said! Xavier: Thank you, Styles! So, with that bit of information, I’m going to trust your sources, although they did miss out on one or two fights at Rapid Fighting Championship 22, and I’ll pick Finger to get his first career victory! Finger by knockout! Styles: You know the fight game is unpredictable, but I trust my sources and I trust my gut, and my gut says to roll with Finger as well! Finger by knockout! PREDICTIONS: Styles – Finger by KO; Xavier – Finger by KO Styles: Theodore Nouveau and Chok Delarock are next up in the battle of brutality! Theodore makes me think of the Chipmunks, or some dude who works on Wall Street and wears khaki’s every day! Chok Delarock sounds like a drink that’s popular in the hood! Xavier: In the hood!? Which hood are you talking about, Styles!? Styles: Whatever hood likes to lay claim to certain drinks! I don’t know, X! Stop analyzing everything I say and just roll with it! “Beaujolaise”, that’s quite a nickname, is 8-12, which is definitely not a great record, but dude likes to fight, and I can respect that! He recently broke a 4-fight losing streak with a first-round submission win over Xix Zyx at Rapid Fighting Showdown in Tokyo 20, so he may have gotten himself together in time for this fight! Xavier: His last 5 fights have all stopped in the first round, so expect to see him being very aggressive in this fight against Delarock! “A Block” Delarock… Styles: ”A Block”, like Cell Block A!? Xavier: You’ll have to ask him! He’s 8-7, so his record isn’t great either, but it’s a winning record, and in the fight game, that’s definitely respectable! What’s not respectable is the current 4-fight losing streak he’s on, and as I always say, that kind of losing streak can’t be good for the psyche! He had a 5-fight win streak early in his career, so he’s capable, but he’ll need to handle business here! To add to this fight is bragging rights, because these two warriors train at the same gym! Styles: Hold up! They train at the very same gym!? Xavier: You heard me! Styles: Wow, dude, that’s crazy! Do you think they’ve sparred with and against one another in that gym!? Xavier: It’s possible, Styles! Styles: Crazy! What’s even more crazy!? My sources tell me that both of these dudes have been caught up in their feelings! Xavier: Both of them! Styles: You heard me! Xavier: Touche! Styles: I don’t even know what to say about that, X! It’s bad enough when one dude mentally checks out of a fight before it even happens, but both fighters checking out!? Hell, let’s just roll the dice to choose this one! I’ll take Delarock because his name sounds like alcohol, and he’ll win by knockout! Xavier: I’ll take Nouveau because he has a unique middle name and he’s from Albania, which has nothing to do with anything! Nouveau by knockout! PREDICTIONS: Xavier – Nouveau by KO; Styles – Delarock by KO Xavier: Kasey McRobbie and Paul Rabbitte are next up to battle! Styles: Rabbitte!? I hope he’s as fast as one because I expect this to be a heavy-hitting fight! Xavier: Well, he’s 3-5 right now but he’s only 21 year-old and that’s young enough to easily and quickly turn things around in a more positive direction! “The Rab” recently snapped a 2-fight losing streak by defeating DeMarcus Ridley at FNF Summer Madness III, and he did that in the first round! He was quite vicious in that fight and I have no doubt he’ll be just as aggressive and vicious against McRobbie! Styles: “Mad Dog” is a solid 4-1, and in this fight, he may have a bit of an advantage if and when there’s a clinch battle or a fight for positioning on the mat! All but one of his fights have ended in the first round, and he’s proven that his fists are capable and dangerous! In a nutshell, he either wins by knockout or he gets knocked out, and I know the fans truly enjoy that style of fighting! Xavier: Israel Adesilva can attest to the power of McRobbie’s fists, that’s for certain, and I expect this fight to be short, brutal and bloody! Styles: Now we’re talkin’! Xavier: In light of that, I’ll choose Rabbitte to win this fight by knockout because I feel he has more to prove! Styles: I’m choosing McRobbie because I think he hits harder, and his record is obviously better! McRobbie by knockout! PREDICTIONS: Styles – McRobbie by KO; Xavier – Rabbitte by KO Styles: Moving right along, we have Ariel Schroder battling Xix Zyx! I’m not even going to try and comment on Zyx’s name because I have a hell of a time just pronouncing it! Schroder looks like a math or a gym teacher, and maybe that demeanor and appearance works in his favor, because opponents may underestimate him! A decent 7-5 record, he’s pretty much been back and forth between wins and losses, so he’s attempting to sustain that winning vibe after beating Juan Villa at Rapid Fight Night 10! He’s a submission artist and that’s obviously an excellent skill to have, plus he’s pretty aggressive and calculating, but he’s also lost by submission and knockouts, so he’s definitely a wild card in that cage! Xavier: Like you, Styles, I don’t even know what to say about Zyx, let alone try and figure out his fighting style! In addition, let’s be honest, he’s a very odd looking dude, and to an extent, but in a very different way, maybe his appearance causes his opponents to underestimate him, because he does look like a guy who’s not too familiar with a barber! Styles: Or hygiene! Xavier: That may actually be a battle tactic, Styles! Maybe “Six” tries to psyche out his opponents by looking grungy, disturbed and just plain strange! Styles: Well, if I were an opponent, I guarantee that would work against me! Dude looks like something from The Thing! Strange movie, by the way! Xavier: Definitely a strange movie, but entertaining! “Six” is 4-4 and has lost his last 3 fights, so he obviously wants to get things turned around! Like Schroder, he favors submissions, so we’ll have ourselves a battle of wits, determination, and flexibility, or at least, I think we will! Zyx has a height advantage but from what we’ve seen, he pretty much doesn’t give a damn about standup fighting and goes right for takedowns and grappling! Styles: Xix “Six” Zyx!? I got it! He’s playing with the number of the beast, 666! Clever…strange, but clever! However, what’s not so clever, X, is my sources tell me that oddball Zyx has been laying around and listening to dark metal and gothic music instead of training, and other UnderGround Fights Enterprise members have said he’s acting even more strange than usual, which is really saying something! Xavier: I’m at a loss for words, but I’m not at a loss for a pick! Styles: Me either! Put me down for Schroder winning by submission! Xavier: Ditto! PREDICTIONS: Xavier – Schroder by Submission; Styles – Schroder by Submission Xavier: Our second-to-last fight of the night features Juan Villa versus Kreepee Krawlee! Styles: Oh yeah, you know I’m going to talk about this one! Kreepee Krawlee! I touched on this name earlier in the show, but “The Spider” obviously has a propensity for arachnoids and bugs! I wonder if he’s seen Arachnophobia, and if he has, does it piss him off!? Xavier: I’ll definitely let you ask that question of him! Styles: Well hell, I have no problem doing that! Kreepee Krawlee…well, I know his favorite holiday is Halloween, and I bet you money that he has a pet tarantula and a snake! He also has a 6-4 record, which is decent, but I wonder if his fellow YABAI members are completely comfortable around dude! Hey X, I bet they call him Spider Man! Xavier: They probably do! He began his career well with a 3-fight win streak but has since been back and forth in the wins and losses column! He lost to Branimir Simeon at Rapid Fighting Championship Showdown in Tokyo 19, so look for him to be aggressive in trying to get this win quickly! His ground game is dangerous and I’m sure Villa is fully aware of that fact! Styles: “The Brave Heart” Villa is currently 8-4, which is quite good, but he’s also coming off a loss to Ariel Schroder at Rapid Fight Night 10! He had a 6-fight win streak to begin his promising career, but then ran into a bit of trouble, and has been back and forth, with more losses, unfortunately! He has the height advantage in this fight so I expect him to stay outside and as far away from Krawlee’s grasp as possible! Xavier: I think that would be the smart move because he hasn’t really proven himself in the grappling game of this sport! He does have a knockout by head kick to his credit, but most of his victories have been by decision, so we’re not sure if he has the ability to finish a fight early! Styles: You know what else we’re not sure of!? Xavier: Oh boy. What aren’t we sure of? Styles: Whether or not this dude truly cares about this fight! I just received word that he hasn’t even been in the gym because he’s been sitting around watching TV, playing video games, and eating Rocky Road ice cream all day! Hell, he sounds like dates I had when I was in college, but that was college! Xavier: It absolutely baffles me when fighters aren’t mentally ready for a fight! It just makes no sense, and it makes no sense for me to pick him to win, so I won’t! Krawlee wins this by submission because he actually wants to fight! Styles: You’re damn right about that! Krawlee twists Villa into all kinds of wrong and makes him tap in this one! PREDICTIONS: Styles – Krawlee by Submission; Xavier – Krawlee by Submission Styles: And, to wrap out this night of combat, we have William Bonin and Barido Joranso standing across the cage from one another! I have to admit that I dig the name of the alliance he’s with! The Devil’s Rejects, another strange movie by the way, just sounds cool! Hey, if Zyx were smart, he’d try to join this group because that would be just too damned perfect! Xavier: I actually have to agree with you on that one, Styles! Styles: Of course you do, because you know I’m right, and I’m clever! Xavier: Right. Bonin stands at 2-3 heading into this fight, and has shown some outstanding skills in the standup game! Unfortunately for him, his last 3 fights have been losses, and he’s lost by submission and TKO! Although quite skilled for a 21-year-old, that’s a very tough path to travel, but being that young may very well help him overcome the recent funk and charter a new course to winning! Styles: Joranso is an even 1-1, so right off the bat, Bonin has the experience advantage, despite Joranso being five years older! Joranso’s trainers told me they’re proud of his boxing skills, and he’s shown an ability to submit opponents, but he’s also lost by submission, so it’s hard to get a read on him! He’s taller so maybe he can use that reach advantage, but…hold on! Really!? Unbelievable! Hey, X, I just got word from an anonymous source that Joranso has been watching old reruns of Friends and The Office all day instead of training as hard as he should! I like those shows, don’t get it twisted, but that comes after you handle business in the cage, son! Xavier: Like we discussed previously, maybe there does need to be a psychologist for some of these fighters that just can’t get it together! In light of that information, I’ll keep this very simple. Bonin wins by knockout! Styles: Bingo! Bonin by knockout! PREDICTIONS: Styles – Bonin by KO; Xavier – Bonin by KO Styles: All right, good folks, me and X are out of here! Catch us next time as we preview Rapid Fighting Championship 24 next week! Peace and hair grease! Xavier: As always, we thank our merchandise partner, Dark Knight Nutrition, with their excellent products and bad ass logo!

Fair enough, was just curious. And don't pay too much attention to Camara. He's a local jester over here.

hahaha .... next time

I can do that for the original listed price, but from after this picture I'll be using the prices I've just updated after being told by a dozen people that its too low!

Good stuff.

ahhh ... not that match mate added

I will contribute m8 A lot of my fans have been asking for interviews from my camp as I have a ton in the top 100 P4P and some really awesome matchups coming up Will pm you and we can take it from there

Appreciate all you're doing for the game mate. With the write ups and now this. Great stuff.

Issue #340 has dropped with seven full length articles published. Issue #341 already has four articles ready to go so if you want to appear in next week's paper, which is expected to drop next Thursday, now is the time to get submitting! I've received some submissions that were unusable unfortunately. If you wish to promote your company or a fighter, the best way is to submit an article that begins with a synopsis of what we will be reading about before delving into the subject as a whole. If you are submitting an event preview or review, please provide a little bit of a header information if you can... at the very least submit the actual content to me. Simply sending me a link to your smack talk thread is, unfortunately, not what we're looking for.

All sounds fair enough, As for two fights per week in round two,I have toyed with the idea actually. If there are any objections to that idea let me know. As i will need to feel the card in sufficient time?

Round two Match-ups will be choosing by myself, And will be based off of the Team aspect so if Team Alex K wins the next two fights i will match up accordingly so each fight will Be Team Camara vs Team Alex K. Yes i didn;t mention this earlier but as i am basing this off of the TUF show Teams did not have control of the 2nd round fights. Instead Dana and the coaches decided together the best match-ups. I will say though that if both coaches want to get involved your more then welcome to message me once round two begins. Obviously i do not want the last winner of round One starting off round two unless there injury free. Just a heads up as someone did ask the question.

It's real easy to tell yourself that you should have the time to sit down and update the game in 6 months or 3 months but it's even easier to get swept up in life and realize 6 months later that you don't have the time then either. Unless he was making enough from this game to consider it a part time job I don't see how any adult could have enough free time to do any meaningful code work on here and still have free time to spend with family. I have time to do extensive event previews because my life is shitty but even I don't always have the time.

How dare you experience real life instead of dedicating all of your existence to a game. Sarcasm aside real life should always be your priority over the game and if it's unacceptable to the player base they will find something else to do with their time. Such is the nature of these things. It's a testament to what you've created thus far that it's being discussed instead of altogether ignored.

Have you never seen Grand Designs? People are always over optimistic - that's why they do self builds in the first place

You always acting like a bitter bitch that's all I know

It depends. There is still a working game and nobody is being forced to pay... They only pay if they feel like there's enough value for them to do so. Some people are gunna leave cos of a lack of updates and I have to live with that. And Netflix are constantly putting their prices up to cover new content. The price here is still the same as it was 10 years ago for that reason. In real terms, I'm reducing the price by ~3% every year.

Seeing as imcool is the only voice in the thread, I'll say that I understand why people are pissed off at the lack of updates. I've moved house last October and I've been doing up the house pretty much single handedly since then, which obviously is taking a while. He's right that I was doing up the bathroom last time I posted about it. That's done. We've converted a garage into a new kitchen since then and I'm in the middle of ripping out the old kitchen and utility room. Once it's all done, I'll be back doing updates. Also, my programmer went MIA for about 9 months. He's back now, hopefully. I'm here every day maintaining the site and answering mails etc. At the end of the day, I would feel the same as imcool about things if it was the other way around but we moved to get my little boy into a good school (the one at our old house was terrible), and to do that we had to move into a shit hole house. I had to do it up, I'm doing it up. I'm nearly done. Once I'm done, I'll be back. I know that has / will continue to piss people off but my little guy's more important to me than anything else, so that's just how it has to be.

What an amazing, brutal tourney. I know I finished last but I have never been results oriented, I knew winning this tourney with the build I chose was going to be nearly impossible but I like challenging myself (I almost won the 265+ Island tourney with an 18 year old creation just a few days ago) and doing weird stuff. I guess I have a little Raichu and Buff Minion in me on the sense that I love trying the weirdest shit in this game and having a blast while trolling a little (or a lot in my case). Amadeo Camara took me from coming 4 spots from the #1 manager rank to where we are now lol but Hype is irrelevant, Rank is irrelevant. I really hope to see more and more managers join more tournaments and challenge themselves. What is next for Camp Camara? 185 creation tourney and TAG TEAM tourney of course !

Not all of us know exactly who you are or what your role in MMAT was. Care to share?

Think you're selling yourself a bit short mate. You could charge 10 times that at the moment And welcome back, just realised who you are.

We've spoken about this via PMs in the past, and I'm sure you understand I come off more offensive than it's intended, but the general frustration is there. If there was no such thing as paid VIP here, no one would have a right to say anything to you. But people do pay money to play, and have certain expectations. You wouldn't pay monthly fees for Netflix if they told you they're too busy w/ their personal life to upload any new content right?

I'd gladly deal w/ annual price bumps of x% if there were improvements/new features regularly added, and I'm sure I'm not alone. What the current situation is MMAT is at the moment: established players have more than enough cash to trade for VIP, newer players still pay for VIP because they haven't been around long enough to get bored of the every day grind and no updates. At least IMO.

Guess we'll see. Shows how much you know, fool. Keep your shitty opinions to yourself, if you haven't got a clue what you're talking about/the situation of the game.

My point exactly. You know jack shit.

Now I could be wrong, and don't quote me on this, but if I remember correctly, Mike mentioned somewhere that he's making about 30k a year from this game? One would think that that income warrants investing a few hours a week into the community.

Lol

Theres an edit post button to do those corrections

Frank is the true OG he is original the founder of Syn best or the game had and will have by a mile. Me and Frank dominated the game way before you all even started to play.
