  2. Toivonen drops a shoulder and throws an uppercut that cracks Atunes right on the button. Atunes goes down! Toivonen follows him to the mat and finishes the job with more strikes! Toivonen gets the win via TKO! Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:47 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Pekka Toivonen! So, here I am. 36 years old, 50 fights deep into a combat sports career spanning 18 years, two sports, 7 organizations, 25 title fights and 19 world titles. I just headlined one of the biggest PPV events of all time, and I've fought most of the top light heavies and middleweights of 3 generations. One thing still eludes me, though. The #1 p4p spot and a place in the hall of fame. I have been ranked #2 in the world at several points in my life, but I've never been ranked #1. Even now, the spot is held up by noted massage therapist and recent draw-participant Roli Poli. Instead of complaining about it, though, I intend to storm the summit and take my throne by force. Even as the referee was pulling me off Atunes' limp body, I was screaming for Chuck to give me a fight with #1 LHW Just Whymer in two weeks. It's the fight every fan wants to see, and it would finally let a real fighter reign on top of the p4p rankings. See you in two weeks, Whymer. Pekka out.

This helps Dewey Decimal climb up to the #1 seed before his attempt to regain the title he lost to current champion Bardia Farrokhzad. There are two new entrants to the batamweight rankings with Mordercai Dabingyaba (#11) and Bernie Sanders (#12). 145 ?

Daniel Barbosa (#4) jumps into the rankings after an impressive debut TKO win over former title challenger Harry Hendersons (#5). Anni Skystalker drops to #2 after a loss to Gaylord Camara in their grudge match following their initial draw. This lands Ryan Anderson as the current #1 contender setting up the potential of a huge trilogy fight with Camara. Lastly, Veljiko Bakocevic makes his debut in the rankings at #15 following his second straight win, both by submission. 155 ?

Bolo Yueng to spots #7 as he extended his undefeated streak in WCF to 4-0 with a win over Helio Silva (NR). Yadeep Singh also jumped up a spot to #12 following his 3rd straight win. Balthazar Baker (#4) notably picked up an impressive finish over Jared Roughneck but was unable to move up any in the rankings due to the man who is responsible for his sole loss, Konstantin Sogrin (#3), being ranked directly ahead of him. 205 ?

  5. Yeah I’m sure you’re right. Strangely, I’ve seen Mike accept several female avatars for PAs though including the below which is straight lifted and shifted from another MMA game

  6. I don't agree with the naming of the event, it's dumb and was obviously done to get a rise out of people. However, if you or anyone else think the ONLY reason Jude got banned was because of this naming thing then you're not seeing straight. - multi account for years - before the whole 2+ company thing came into effect so he could have his 1 company and also a private gym - tried to spin and win pick up an FA off his own multi account (i.e won an FA pick up on og account, released a fighter on his multi account, picked up fighter with his og account) something he continued to deny even when that was the direct reason given from mike and why the multi account was deleted. - tried to scam mike when resetting fighters hype/pop/rank after a bug - tried to say his fighter had 300 ish hype and 444 pop when it was easily checked that he had around 230 hype and 340 pop - got warned for fighter name previously - pulled fighter name thing again - has copped 6 forum warnings (abuse, spamming etc) from about a gazillion reported posts (we've been VERY lenient lol) And probably a bunch of other shit I've forgotten about.

  7. Yes, I have done gone and lost my mind. We are doing the unthinkable, and allowing women to fight at HFC in our 135 division. Mike has not approved this or made any special mods, so we will need to start submitting female avatars for approval. Once they are approved, we're good to go. This movement could get him to create the mod to allow females to compete across the board. Requirements: 375k+ 135 lb cut weight FEMALE avatar FEMALE name Contracts will be 10k/5k/5k. Please post intent to join here, or message me in game. Also, once you've had a female avatar accepted, please let me know so that I will know we have the green light to go all in. Let's spark a little life into this game with a new twist... who's with me?

  8. https://pixlr.com/ is a good, "freemium" site to try and work with. User friendly and pretty flexible. Your first few avatars won't be great but you'll get a knack for it. Here's my first attempt at a female avatar with it. (note, you can't do gifs on this site so the flag gif in the background, I added through another site)

  9. Yes!!!! Since I'm a girl I give my fighters female names and say her and she....sometimes I get comments but idrc. I'm down with a female division. Tbh, I've only been here for about a month so I'm not sure how to make avatars but I'll do my best. Thanks!!!

  10. 170 contender Dan Averescu posted an interview after his last fight this morning: REP - Very close fight sir but is nice to see you with a win on this one. But the result really surprised you? DA - No way. The result was fine, the crowd cheered my name. I was with the hand up when i waited the result not him. REP - Wilva was really damaged after the fight with you, any differences from the first time you fighted him? DA - He is a tough guy. I spent a shit trainning and I was not kind prepared for ttis fight. The only think that I maked different from the first fight was to put more pressure. I think the first fight was more close that it seems but I have some experience, you can t storm fists with me with the same strategy, and I never loose in a rematch. Mark my words. REP - He was undefeted for 6 fights, having a big win on his record when he won the first one, he maked some kind of climb before this loose. Any words for Wilva? DA- Neahh, not some many. I don t have a problem with this guy, he will be back and some day we will do it again for a triology. REP - So you will not accept a third fight asap with Wilva? DA - I don t think so. I don t have anything to prove here. I come here with a shit trainning, in second and third round I was gassed out man, you know what gassed out means? But I stayed there and really hitted him hard but it seems like he has a very good chin. REP - What you say about Dwight Schrute? Another trilogy that you can make. DA - Oh yea,I am not here to be meat on the table. I am 29, soon 30... When I last fighted him he was 20. He was back and forth some times but with all respect for him I don t think a fight with me will help him in some way. He climbed nice 3 spectacular wins in row, he looks good, trainning everyday and look at me. If I don t was a brawler this night I will be now in the prelyms... Is 1 - 1 with me and Dwight, I will fight him and Wilva for sure but not now. I need some trainning and need to put some discipline. REP - Any last words? A call out or something to say for the fans? DA - I will not make any call out. I will fight someone, who? I don t know but I am not ready for top 10, need to make some changes. Thanks to all my fans for support and I will be back.

  19. You've only got $32,000 so can't afford Edwards who costs $50,000 Also - lots of moves in the rankings - Chikadze & Cerrone now both ranked which is good for me. Surprised no one has picked Swanson, who has a good chance against Chikadze. Camp rivalry wins can be key to success

  21. BBFC is moving to 360k as the 355k guys move up to HFC. So BBFC is a 360k org now, which is why the move to add BFA. Also, CMMA was just bought by Alpha-1 to become a feeder at 360k and purchased C4 to turn into his 370k feeder after merging roster into CMMA. So.. BBFC - 360k CMMA - 360k KoF - 360k C4 - Future 370k BFA - merging into BBFC BBFC's 355k roster in transition towards HFC. Will take a little time due to belts and not wanting to do a full blown roster dump all at once. But it's happening with more details being released soon. HFC will be 350-359k restricted.

  24. When did everyone get so soft. Who give a rats ass about a bum drug addict that got his because he resisted? Fucking get over it, it didnt affect anyone other than bringing out racial tension. There are tons of nearly identical cases that go un talked about. Anyone whose been alive more that 20 yrs knows the whole thing was bullshit stirred to creat racial tension before the election to try and sway the black voters. Not one of you truly gives a shit about G.F. and if you do it shows youre just a sheep

  25. HFC 70 - Nickel vs Tonissaar - Review Hello MMA fans, I'm Alexei Smirnov here to give you your HFC 70 review! Two whole championship fights and a main event between two huge fighters, literally. Main Event: Jason Mendoza vs Bobby "Blow" Chunks Mendoza starts the fight off by getting an early clinch and then Chunks takes the fight to the ground. Chunks is unable to do much once on the ground being unable to transition or get an offense going. After a failed sub attempt the ref makes the wise choice of standing them both up. Three minutes into the first round Mendoza lands a huge right hand rocking Chunks, Mendoza stops for a moment catching his breath and lands a huge flying knee KOing Chunks. One of the best KOs I’ve seen in a while and it lands Mendoza KO of the night. Mendoza established himself as a top super heavyweight in the world and second best in HFC only behind Wanker. A great main event filled with some great action, Chunks wasn’t able to do much but he can bounce back. Great main event for sure! Co-Main Event: Baruto Tonissaar vs Chip "The Scoop" Nickel Now it’s time for the middleweight title bout. Pretty dominant showing from Tonissar as he outstrikes Nickel for the majority of the fight but is unable to get a finish. Nickel has a great chin and it really shows here withstanding many blows from Tonissar. Both fighting showing all elements of the standup game fighting in and out of the clinch. Nickel struggles especially when he isn’t in the clinch as he is out striked by Tonissar. If you’re a big fan of striking you would love this fight. The judges awarded the decision victory to Tonissar and crowning a new champ. That belt has been passed around like a hot potato and finally Tonissar gets the belt after a long journey. This fight wins FoTN and I would agree with that decision, just a really good fight all around. Nickel should be able to bounce back and I wish the best of luck to Tonissar in his reign as champ. Great Co-main! Boris Krylov vs Chris "Kenshin" Travis Boris Krylov defended his championship against Chris “Kenshin” Travis. This fight was a standup war with Krylov getting cut early after some good strikes from Travis. Travis is mostly going for punches while Krylov is throwing in some kicks in there as well. Travis missed a lot of his strikes, Krylov is a lot more accurate with his. Neither man even tries a clinch or takedown, it’s just pure striking. Might as well be a kickboxing match and both men are going all out with these strikes. Krylov finally knocks Travis down with a beautiful combo, Krylov waves Travis back to his feet. A right hook to the temple and it’s all over Krylov wins with a KO punch! Definitely would’ve been KO of the night if it wasn’t for Jason Mendoza. Krylov retains his championship and continues his dominant streak. Travis’ winning streak finally broken here and Krylov shows just how much power he has. Great striking fight and another amazing KO! Leifsson def Telegin Barney Got Aids def Bates Seran def Chai Miller def King Demnok def Repine Tai Kung def Valentine Goromaru def Elkins

  26. That's really all it's down to. The game is showing its age but not only are divisions already a little thin at times, but female fighters cant even just move up or down to make up the numbers in a different division.

  28. I like the creativity, but it won't be possible anyway. Mike is first of all already not a fan of the idea (be it for female avatars or the fact that he would have to get his programmer to do some work), and you didn't run it past him yet it seems. So in my humble opinion, don't waste your time or energy on it, before you ever get a green light by Mike.

  31. I was honestly sad, Camara was the ONLY reason I didn't quit this game when I first began a few years back. He was the only org owner who signed my fighters when I started and he was one of the VERY few people who actually answered my questions and gave me tips to win fights when I began. He gave me a few loans back in the day and was pretty much my mentor, even though I never really had a mentor, I had one dude mentor me and he didn't teach nor help me with anything lmao not going to lie, the game is going to be much less fun without his Camara character here.. Because he's obviously still here, he and his powerful fwends. lmao

  32. ROUND FIVE - PREVIEW The fifth and final round of the group stage is now upon as and with it, a much clearer picture of what each and every alliance needs to get out of it in order to reach there best position. Starting with Group A where bottom placed Naughtly Crew 3 will square off against fellow underdogs ACME 1, it's likely that ACME are going to be handicapped from the very start after one of their managers sacked after the last round and doesn't seem to be very interested in rectifying his “mistake”. A real shame considering ACME 1 currently reside in the middle of the table and with a good result could have very easily found themselves snatching one of the two wildcard slots for a space in the finals. I suppose technically there is a chance for Naughtly Crew 3 to do the same, though it would require practically a perfect result here as well as other results throughout the tournament going their way too. Otherwise Naughtly Crew 3 will be scrapping it out to try and avoid ending up in the bottom place finals (aka the losers bracket) The aforementioned forfeit bout should have been happening at 135lbs with both team captains set to face each other. Currently it looks as though Naughtly Crew's Stuart Burrows will standing in the cage unopposed and set to collect the maximum 5 points for a forfeit win unless ACME captain Devin Russell signs the bout agreement in time. At 155lbs, ACME's Torn Brot faces Naughtly Crew 3's Ultimate Warrior and will be a very slight favourite going in. Very closely matched in skills except for the wrestling where Warrior will excel, it is likely individual form that has shaped the bookies opinion on this one as Warrior has still yet to pick up any points at all. At 185lbs Tran Quaach from Naughtly Crew will face Gretchen Alexander for ACME and really, this could go either way. Very much a grappler versus striker styles clash, neither fighter have been particularly impressive lately and will both be looking to overturn a two fight losing streak. On to the final heavyweight bout and ACME just may have the edge in this one as their 1-2 Peter Kowalski takes on 0-3 Uncle Abner for NC3. On paper another grappler versus striker match and one that, again, could go either way. With Abner's form taken into consideration however, it's easy to see why Kowalski is considered a slight favourite. Prediction: With ACME 1 likely coming into this a man down, a tough little rivals match up will now be all the tougher for them to get a result from. Most of the match up's here are very close and could go either way. It wouldn't even be a total shock to see ACME pull off the win even with a fighter missing. Still, it would be a shame to see in a way as nothing except a perfect win from either side will likely yield them maximum returns on a group finishing spot. With that said, the bookmakers predict ACME holding on to take this bout 3 legit ones to 1 forfeit. The other remaining Group A match up is also currently looking as though it will be a man down as group title chasers Keyboard Warriors look to maintain their undefeated streak against forth place The Guardians. Keyboard Warriors would snatch first place from YABAI with a win here though they are already guaranteed a place in the champions phase finals no matter what the result. For The Guardians, they too could theoretically end up in the finals but it would require an herculean effort against a terribly in form alliance team and on top of that, they just might be without one of their most consistent performers in Drax Bautista. Another 135lbs team captain showdown with The Guardians Kaspar Kallaste taking on Keyboard Warriors Akio Kurosaki. A very interesting bout considering the similarities that both fighters share. Both currently 1-2 and with almost identical results against the same opponents. Kallaste has obviously been working on his ground game to compliment his already wonderful boxing skills and that just might give him the edge against pure grappler Kurosaki. At 155lbs, Keyboard Warriors Aung Siang rides a two fight winning streak as he prepares to face The Guardians Isak Hardrada and is likely going to be a decent favourite going in. Hardrada has been a little inconsistent during the group stage so far and will have little in the way of defence against Siang's wonderful wrestling and purple belt jiu-jitsu. At 185lbs, the pendulum swings thoroughly towards Keyboard Warriors as their undefeated submission machine Bofur Widenose takes on struggling 0-3 Matt Cosce. Not one of Widenose's opponents have managed to survive three rounds against him so far and with three first round finish losses himself, it's unlikely that Cosce will end up being the first to do so. At heavyweight, The Guardians look set to miss out on any potential and desperately needed points as top team performer Drax Bautista has yet to sign the bout agreement against undefeated Keyboard Warrior star Felix Suarez. A real shame should this bout not take place as it would have been a real interesting one stylistically and also a big test for Suarez. Prediction: There's no other way to see this currently than another big Keyboard Warriors win. They are in great form, highly motivated and on a mission to take the top spot in the group. Perhaps if The Guardians do get their heavyweight back in time, things would be a little closer as wins there and at 135lbs could be a possibility. It would only take one good result at either 155lbs or 185lbs and The Guardians pull off a shock victory. Realistically however, Keyboard Warriors move to 4-0 and The Guardians do well to avoid heading into the Bottom Place finals after this round. Over to Group B where last years runners up and current group leaders The Stepdads take on the filthy collective of Naughtly Crew “1”. The Stepdads will be making their way into the final eight no matter the result of this meeting (and rumour has it that Doc Zoidberg has been seen loitering outside Alex K's apartment with a wheelbarrow full of reals in the hope of brokering a “deal”) and the only questions is whether they will be doing so as Group B champions or not. For fourth place Naughtly Crew, a spot in the bottom place finals is a real consideration here following a loss and an unfavourable result elsewhere in the group whilst a win of any kind might just be enough to give them safe passage into the champions finals themselves. First up, the 135lbers and what looks like a pretty certain win for The Stepdads straight off the bat. Their man Ricky Greene, currently riding a two fight win streak both via first round submissions, takes on Naughtly Crew's Clint River who is still without a win after three attempts. On paper, Greene has evolved far more than River and should the fight hit the ground it's not likely to last very long at all. On to the lightweights where things look a little more competitive though still swinging in The Stepdads favour. Naughtly Crew team captain Jake Keane will take on The Stepdads team captain Shinji Tomoguchi. Keane currently on a two fight losing streak isn't going to give him the most confidence coming into this although Tomoguchi will also be coming in after suffering something of an upset in his last bout. He lost a tightly contested fight to LOD's Bob Probert by Majority Decision and will be looking to get back on the winning path as quickly as possible. Getting closer to a Naughtly Crew win here but not quite there yet. Undefeated Maximus DeMarcus Meridius will be looking to keep that 0 on the end of his record as he takes on Naughtly Crew's 2-1 Reggie Booker. On paper, Booker looks as though he has the tools to deal with Meridius' ground skills but the momentum will definitely be in The Stepdads' fighters corner. An exciting match up at Heavyweight as Naughtly Crew's Kevin Mamar faces The Stepdads Bruce Hood. Both fighters currently 2-1 in the tournament with Hood only recently suffering his first loss in the last round. An out and out grappler versus striker match up, this one really could go either way all depending on who is first to the punch so to speak. Prediction: Unfortunately, this is likely to go down as another horrible experience for the Naughtly Crew experiment and another scalp for The Stepdads. Of course, there is always luck to hope for but with only two match ups being only *possible* wins, it's unlikely that The Stepdads slip up in all four fights. Next up will be second placed Syndicate taking on last placed Legion of Doom in what will be LOD's final opportunity to avoid finishing in last place in the group. With their closest rival Naughtly Crew 1 facing a very tough match up of their own this round, there has never been a better time to pull off the big win. That will not be easy however as Syndicate have been solid throughout and with some of their lesser performing fighters now picking up wins, there are looking more dangerous than ever. Syndicate are currently in a very strong position to qualify and, I think, actually guaranteed a spot in the final eight no matter the result. Still, best not to rely on my calculations at this point! On to the fights and we kick things off with undefeated 3-0 Dreynos Elvul from Syndicate taking on 1-2 Solomon Grundy for Legion of Doom. Grundy was predicted to be a fighter to look out for at the start of this tournament but hasn't quite panned out as thought. He is tough no doubt but with a weakness to submission fighters he is likely in for a tough time against Elvul who has two of his three wins coming via first round submission. A very exciting match up at 155lbs as Syndicate team captain Slash Shredder faces LOD's Bob Probert. Shredder had been disappointing early on in the tournament after two loses in a row but might have just turned the corner following his recent victory over Trey Limitless. This change in form couldn't have come at a better time in the tournament as he faces a very tough 2-1 Bob Probert who will be coming in after a massive upset victory over The Stepdads captain Shinji Tomoguchi. On paper, an interesting match up. Shredder with the wrestling advantage whilst Probert has the edge in the stand up. Might just be leaning in Probert's favour? At middleweight, LOD captain John Rackham takes on Syndicates Al Hoffa and this one could go either way. Rackham has looked poor of late having suffered two first round losses in a row whereas Hoffa has just managed to overturn his own poor run of form with a win in his last bout. Something of a grappler versus striker match up, Rackham will really need to put the pressure on early if he is to get a result out of this one. The final heavyweight match up is another big fight for these two alliances and again, one to look out for. Two big heavy hitters, both 2-1. Syndicates Sono Tiger takes on Legion of Doom's Richard Anderson. Boxing versus Muay Thai. Wrestling against BJJ. Very hard to pick a favourite here with the odds likely to be even. Prediction: Actually a very tough one to predict. The only real heavy favourite here will be at 135lbs with Syndicate's undefeated Dreynos Elvul. Everywhere else the result would not be a surprise either way. Motivation might could be a factor as Legion of Doom are not going to want to end up in the bottom place finals in their first AWC appearance. Syndicate on the other hand aren't going to roll over for anyone and will want to make sure they go through in a more beneficial second place qualifying spot. Finally over to Group C where things have really started heating up over these last couple of rounds. First up we have a match up that is already marred with controversy. Last placed ACME 2 are scheduled to face fourth placed Team Panda but extreme cowardice has set in with two of their four managers refusing to see through their commitments. A terrible shame for the remaining two fighters who now could only manage a draw at best but a massive boost for Team Panda who could potentially snap up a last minute spot in the grand finals. Our 135lbs match up is set with Team Panda captain Napoleon Panda taking on Glenn Welch for ACME. Both fighters have been in poor form but it is Welch who is still searching for his first win of the tournament. This fight looks as though it will be decided on the ground where both fighters are most comfortable and if that is the case, Panda looks to be the more advanced of the two and likely to be a strong favourite. We also have our 155lbs bout with Jacques Turcotte of Team Panda taking on Brett Keane for ACME. Turcotte was having a decent run up until his last fight where he lost a close decision to FinnFighters Rokken Roll. Keane on the other hand has lost his last two including a split decision loss also to Roll. Could be a very entertaining scrap and one which has fight of the night written all over it. From here on we are currently absent the remaining two fights. 0-3 Otto Graff for Team Panda was slated to face ACME team captain Mun So but so far, So has refused all communications and has yet to sign the fight agreement. Technically the fight could still end up going ahead but with only a few days until fight time, it's looking less and less likely which would mean a forfeit win and a guaranteed five points for Team Panda. A shame for the ACME team as So would have been a strong favourite going into this one. Another shame is not having a heavyweight bout to decide the match up. Team Panda's Jacko Dawson will almost certainly be getting a forfeit win as ACME's Fidel DeLuna was dumped by manager Darren Russell almost immediately after his third loss in a row in the last round and has made no attempt to make good. Prediction: With two out of four match ups already looking as being maximum point wins for the Panda boys, this one is almost a forgone conclusion as going down as a win for Team Panda. If this is the case that ACME team captain doesn't sign on for the fight in time, the best they could manage would be a draw and that would not be enough to shift them out of bottom place. For Team Panda, depending on results elsewhere in the group, there is a good chance that a dominating win here would be enough to bring them back from the brink of elimination and into the final eight alliance teams. With that in mind, it makes the two matches that we do have confirmed all the more interesting and worth keeping an eye on. The final group stage match up in Group C will be the honourable crew of Naughtly 2 taking on the decidedly dishonourable FinnFighters. The Finns have looked incredible so far having racked up three team wins in a row whilst also having amassed the most match points out of any other team in the tournament. With this form, it is no wonder they currently occupy the top spot in the group and have already guaranteed themselves a place in the finals. Naughtly Crew 2 are currently in third place and occupying one of the two wild card spaces for the final eight. At best, a maximum point win here would be enough to topple the Finns for first place and potentially upset the waiting Convicted Inc team. At worst, a loss here could send them crashing out of the top eight entirely. Now, on to the match ups. At 135lbs, FinnFighers undefeated BJJ Brown Belt CG Mannheim will take on Naughtly Crew's Norman Pike and this one might not be as clear cut as many would think. Mannheim has yet to lose so you can't really bet against him but Pike has done far better than anticipated and cannot be counted out. On paper, he has a great chance as the superior striker and wrestler but as already pointed out, Mannhiem has yet to be beaten. At 155lbs, the FinnFighters team captain Rokken Roll will be taking on Naughtly Crew's Christian Caliman. Roll, also undefeated at this time, has been a reliable source of points for his team so far and everything a captain should be. He will be a huge favourite against Caliman who is still searching for his first win in the tournament as well as adjusting to life under new management. At middleweight, we have Naughtly Crew team captain Anders Thorsen taking on Oke Swahn for the FinnFighters and this one looks to be quite a toss up. Both fighters with 2-1 records and both coming in having alternated wins with losses, Thorsen will have the edge in the wrestling and on the ground whilst Swahn is by far the more superior on the feet. The final heavyweight bout pits bitter rival management teams against each other when FinnFighters Einar Kyrvansyyla takes on Naughtly Crew's Dick Glover. Kyrvansyyla has looked absolutely monstrous up to this point having dispatched all of his three opponents via first round KO. Ground and pound specialist Glover is going to have his work cut out for him in trying to get this fight to the floor and failure to do so will likely result in his name being added to Kyrvansyyla's list. Not particularly tough to predict with Glover being the heavy underdog. Prediction: Misery for Naughtly Crew 2. FinnFighters are in phenomenal form with three of the four fighters currently undefeated and their fourth with a winning record. No other team in the tournament currently has this level of dominance and it's difficult to see where Naughtly Crew 2 could upset them by that much. However, a loss could spell the end for NC2 and so motivation is going to be high. How far you go on motivation alone against such odds? Only time will tell.

  33. Either unban Camara or punish SFL (even a warning). There shouldn't be flip-flopping based on who does it

  36. Frankly I was worried that without Camara stirring the pot everyday, the forums would die out. I can see now that I was wrong.

  37. Yep not the people who literally cried and complied about my contract spamming or Icon's "fighter poaching" SMH A Karen wouldn't be the one defending Camara's Chauvin character, it would be all the pussy's that couldn't handle it.

  38. Every single SFL event features the same poster, and every single SFL event features the second name of each main eventer against one another. The name was rightfully changed, but yous are doing the dumb thing where you try to take down everyone surrounding it too. You may as well go after the poster artist while you're at it.

  41. RICK PIANO 3-0 In his first kickboxing fight in nearly 14yrs, Rick Piano carved up Dick Doss' face bad enough for the doctor to stop the fight and won the Syn KT heavyweight title! The win also shot Rick up in rank to #3 at heavyweight and #7 p4p in KT bringing him one big step closer to his goal of being a former #1 p4p fighter in both MMA and KT. Now im not sure if it's been done before but if so it has to be a very short list. This would put Piano in the list of all time greats and solidify him even more as a legend in the fight game!

  43. Should you message Mike, perhaps send him meanwhile a link to an actual thread made in August 2014 (!) by a mod, who put all suggested improvements together and even classified them by number of upvotes. Those have been suggested years ago, were highly supported by the community, but hardly any have been tackled at all. So if he actually wants to put work in, the groundwork has been laid 7years ago..
