CALI MMA- MONTHLY ROUNDUP (PART 2 OF 4) Right then, i think i gave a long enough description of what this and the next couple writeups will be all about yessterday, so i'll not waste anymore time on repeating the same thing, therefore let's jump straight in and see what i got in store for ya'll today... 155 LBS STATE OF THE CHAMPION Champ: Evan Duvernay Now the champ is really not the hardest guy to describe imo, cause he's just a fuckn beast! And i'm not even kiddin in that regard. Now why do i say that you may ask? Well the answer is very simple, which is that this guy tends to absolutely annihalate his opponents for the entirity of their fight, when he doesn't just knock em out sooner that is, and so far, apart from a very miniscule blip in his CMMA debut, he's had a picture perfect career, which he'll hope to continue...But since he has not fought any of the top-top contenders in the division, the jury is still out whether he is the best Lightweight at CMMA or not,so until he beats one of em, we will just have to wait i guess, but imho, this is the real deal right here. THE TITLE CONTENDER Number #1 Contender: Frank Morrison Now similarly like the champ, even Frank had a very stuttery start to life at CALI MMA, the first time round as well as on his second and current stint, but ever since that devastating loss on his return to Cali MMA, he seems to have polished up his art to defending and countering a lot, cause ever since that loss, not only no one has beaten him, but also no one has even come close to really breaking through his sturdy defence, and hence after 3 straight wins (2 post fight performance bonuses) he is getting his much deserved title shot, so hopefully he puts up a good performance and shows everyone why he is the top contender to the Lightweight title. POSSIBLE TITLE CONTENDERS Damian Tonon Well although he suffered a pretty disappointing loss in his maiden title fight, he is still considered and probably is one of the top contenders to that title. Now i know that he recently lost a title fight, but if we look at his recent CMMA record, this guy has only ever lost to the current champ, and has beaten almost everybody else who was put in front of him, so even after a loss in a title fight, there's no question that this kid is still gonna be there or thereabouts during the conversation about the next challenger for the champion. Isaac Vernon Now although he hasn't really beaten anyone of note so far, this guy has won 5 out of his last 6 bouts over here at Cali MMA and is currently on a 3-fight win streak, so this guy has to be in and around the conversation for a title shot soon, considering some of the top #5 fighters are either inactive or are busy with their grudge matches in a different organization,so look out for this guy, cause who knows he might turn out to be the special one. OVERACHIEVERS OF THE MONTH Samuel Clemens Now this guy has really been on an outrageous tear through the division at the moment, and his 4-fight win streak (2 performance related bonuses) just proves my point further. It's true that this kid hasn't really come up with any serious competition as of yet, but whatever little i've seen of him, i've been left very impressed, so keep an eye on this guy, cause he could potentially go onto do some great things in this sport. 170 LBS STATE OF THE CHAMPION Champ: Rene Lafayette Now although this guy isn't really the most exhilaratingly dominant fighter in the world like most of the champs,he is a guy who wears his heart on his sleeve and gives absolutely everything in a fight and sometimes has a knack of pulling out some outrageous submission maneuvors sometimes, so all in all he is a pretty exciting guy to watch on the cage. But as we all know, he has yet to prove himself to the endearing public as a brilliant and dominant champ, so we just have to wait and see if that happens in the future. THE TITLE CONTENDER Number #1 Contender: Dwight Schrute Now if anyone has earned a title shot in their life, it has got to be this guy right here, cause after toiling for 7 long grueling wins, he has finally got his much overdue and well deserved title shot. Alright yes some might complain that he hasn't fought any of the big guns yet, but hey hold your horses right there, cause he has beaten two top #10 contenders in his last two fights, so he fully deserves this shot, and hopefully he puts up a brilliant perfomance in his next fight and who knows maybe come out as the winner, while carrying a bright new shiny title by his side. POSSIBLE TITLE CONTENDERS Konrad Wagner Now the former champ really has to be in the conversation for a title shot sooner rather than later, cause, well he simply deserves a rematch to win back what he thinks rightfully belongs to him, which if you didn't get it yet is the title. Well before he lost his title fight, he simply destroyed anyone and everyone who was put forth in front of him so that automatcally puts him at the top of the que for a title shot, which shouldn't take a long time to arrive, cause i think he is the next in line as it should be. Demetrius Jackson Another guy who has only ever lost to the current champ during his stay at Cali-MMA is this don, but unlike Wagner, i do not think he'll get a title shot straight away, cause he has just lost a title fight, and unlike wagner, he hasn't defended the belt multiple times previously, so although before the disappointing loss in the title fight he indeed won a lot of fights, but i still think he needs to win a couple big matchups to get back into the mix for yet another title shot. OVERACHIEVERS OF THE MONTH Dude McWrestler Well after a very bad showing against a top #5 contender in Mehdi Kannani, dude bounced back perfectly with a win against a higher ranked opponent this month to move up a spot in the rankings, which btw get's him even closer to his maiden title shot, but as we know he has still got a lot of work to do to break into that elusive top #5, and let me tell you the road to the top won't be easy at all, so dude needs to keep doing what he is doing, and hopefully he keeps on giving us brilliant performances like this for a long time to come. So with that we have come to the end of yet another segment of the monthly roundup, i hope you guys will like it, and join me tomorrow for yet another segment of this months roundup featuring two more divisions, but until then take care and cya!

As a former owner of Syn ,i assure you that Syn is NOT a money printer.... I always had to infuse money from the VIP exchange to keep the ship running... Competition with other PPV orgs was very high though and we had to overpay. My most optimistic prediction is that Syn breaks even at the end of every month...

Dude "El Duderino" McWrestler Amazing writing! Loving to see my face on the articles around the world! If Mehdi would like to offer me a rematch, it would be great for me, I really missed a huge part of it in our first fight, now I fixed it and I am 100% sure I will not lose the rematch, not even a round. If Mehdi wants it, I want it, if CMMA wants it, let's make it happen. I want to get my revenge now or later, I wont let him go away with that win. I will be at CMMA 161, Mehdi you should call me out if you're a man! But you have to win it first, if not, I will jump over the cage and challenge you for a rematch. Get your tickets for it! Make sure to be there because I will show up for the main card! Good luck to CMMA warriors!

BTW this is how Supernova did since you keep citing it. This is under chucks reign.

I have no "hidden" money. Just about 7 million in savings (I bought off VIP exchange) and 1.5 in SB pending. Syn doesn't print money mate I can show you the financials. The average card sells less PPV weekly than it used to be like 50-100k. Also no, not counting withdrawals syn has lost money. So just from event revenue you so syn would be 250M in profit. But the second you add signing bonuses in its 200M in the hole. Then add staff wages we sit at 223M in the hole. Now what are most of the withdrawals used for? Direct signing bonuses to manager account. Even if we only count 25% of the withdrawals which would be a huge undersell (total withdrawls is $717,933,366) thats adding another $179,483,341.5 in debts. Totaling in -$402,483,341.5 Thats hundreds of millions lost. And this is a huge undersell BTW. I'd venture more than 50% of withdrawals are for signing bonuses. EDIT: Proof I dont have hidden money.

25 year olds, probably around 16 fighters. And, eliminate directly.

Click on profile top right, then my settings. It will take you to this page. Go to Ignore preferences. Enter username of person you want to ignore, tick relevant boxes, hit save. Easy. You don't won't to hear from someone just do this.

Arent you busy quitting/dodging?

So you just did all the math brother yet you don't see how I'm not making money. (You undershot on fighter pay but overshot on ads so it actually evened out to be right.) Lets say 600k an event profit. Now double that for 2 events a week and thats 1.2 million If I resign 2 good guys that weekend its probably around 500k each Writer is 300k a writeup Other staff is 75k a week Then if I was to book new arenas 1.85 million per weekend. Hell not even counting the other expenses I don't even make enough to cover new arena costs mate. I don't make enough money to support my gym I sell 4 coaches. I don't make enough money for VIP I buy that with my real money. If anything happens to SYN RN I have all of 7M in disposable income and as I said I bought that money off the exchange as well as my alliance mate Shaun gave me 2.5 million. So outside of the bought and given money I had all of 500k in disposable income. The thing that makes the most money in this game is graphics, avatars and writing. There is 0 overhead on these things. Its 100% profit.

18 yo, 135 lbs, 265 lbs. 2 fighters.

The simple answer is that it takes time and effort to do it with very little interactions - not enough people care about it anymore and I'd hazard a guess that those who do still write shit do it for themselves. The most popular software to use is Photoshop. There isn't really a set process. Most of the best stuff written wasn't event previews etc but rather character stuff and that is just the person being creative.

Not only that, but back to back to back 185->205->265, and all in the early part of the 2nd round! He's on a roll!

SUCKER PUNCH PREVIEW Sucker Punch Pro Series 86 Hello again Sucker Punch fans! As usual, I’m Hare Rumpler here along with my buddy and analyst, Donkey “Dan”! I hope you’re all ready for some fantastic mid-week action because we have a stacked lineup for SPPS 86 tonight over at Schooners Bar in Sydney! No title fights on the line, but plenty of serious action that will create ripple effects for months. And, on top of all that, we’re going to be having our second PPV event this evening. Not full blown three hour long special, but we’ll once again get one hour of the best action the card has to offer up there for fans worldwide along with all the amazing commentators and production quality we can muster to make it something special! Our prior PPV event at SPPS 85 resulted in our highest rated event to date at just over a 270 point rating. Now, we won’t make any cash after this one either tonight, but it’s an investment into the future as we slowly build the org’s event ratings up and they start to build upon one another. We expect tonight’s event to skyrocket well past a 300+ rating! Tonight the action comes at you from just about every weight class aside from Lightweight which won’t be represented this evening. The Undercard will swing from one end of the spectrum with two Heavyweight bouts to the other with two Featherweight bouts all in the first five fights this evening. Falling right in the middle, both by weight class and due to its placement as the third fight of the evening will be the Welterweight battle between Maximus Jr and Pete Dunham. The Main Card will really bring a full court press at you with quality action as we open things up with Barnes and Daly going at it in the Light Heavyweight division. Two more Heavyweight battles follow and then our Main Events will have elite level Middleweights John Doe and Landon McGuire both looking for a win that could put them just a step or two away from getting back into the title picture! Our final fight of the night will see stellar Welterweights Red Crow and Leroy Jinx facing off as they each try to stake their claim to a Top Contender battle and potential title shot on the line after this. So with all that said, let’s get a quick word in about our merchandise partner and sponsor here before we hurry over and take a peek at each fight coming up tonight in more detail! Do you find that you’re resting your fighters too often? Two, three, maybe even 4 times a week sometimes? If that’s the case, you’re probably not supplementing their training, and if you are I’m thinking you’re not doing it with Shadow Warrior Tea 160Q, which is Shadow Warrior Nutrition’s outstanding energy loss reduction supplement. It’s the best money can buy and will keep your fighter in the gym training rather than sitting days out resting! Stop on over there today, you will NOT be disappointed! Now, let's get to it! *********************** Undercard Bout #1: Heavyweights Patrick Murphy (9-5-0) v Bloodsport Unknown (5-8-0) Well Donkey, I’ve already been told that tonight’s battle with Bloodsport Unknown will be Patrick Murphy’s last hurrah in the cage! Kelly McGrady’s kid has been with us a long time since he arrived after his stays with Florida Fight Squad and BFC. He’s had two title shots in his career, so the man can definitely say he’s flirted with greatness along the way in his professional MMA career. But McGrady has assured me that while she’s definitely attached to this fine man who has been a part of her stable since he was sixteen years old, it’s time for him to hang them up and likely go on to coaching instead. With three losses over his last four fights Murphy has never quite bounced back from the title opportunity against Thoth Chontamenti back in May where he fell via rear naked choke. When Murphy is one he tends to work a solid points grabbing game with technically sound wrestling and a good ground and pound attack. Most fights make it to a decision if he’s going to win it as he did against Rock Silva two fights back. He’ll have the advantage in boxing, wrestling and Muay Thai tonight so we’ll see if he sticks to the same or mixes it up in his last dance! Bloodsport has historically been true to his name and especially seems to prefer the nasty stuff in the clinch. His knees are especially dangerous and he loves to use them. Unfortunately for him, it’s not always his opponent doing the bleeding as he’s had fights stopped at least twice previously due to cuts on his own end. Tonight he steps into the cage in his Sucker Punch debut under new management with team Blink. Given he has the Muay Thai advantage I’d suspect we’re going to see some modification of attack but that it may still come in the clinch this evening! Donkey’s Pick: Murphy via Unanimous Decision When I have trouble deciding between two fighters as I’m struggling with here I tend to look for the little things that might come into play. One little thing I always point out with a fighter and new management is the possibility that it may take a fight or two for them to fully get on the same page. That may be the case here this evening and could be the differentiator in Murphy’s favor. *********************** Undercard Bout #2: Featherweights Yellow Belt Casey (7-8-0) v Apophis Kalmisto (2-2-0) Our second battle will bring Kalmisto’s wrestling and Muay Thai skills tested against Casey’s Jiu Jitsu talents. Kalmisto is well balanced across the board and has gone 2-0 since making his Sucker Punch debut with wins over Kongsangchai and Villarreal. Casey struggled for a while during the period from February through May with four straight losses but then turned things around with two straight victories over Kongsangchai and…Villarreal, both avenging wins against former losses. Hmm…now, why would I make this fight happen, eh? Haha! Casey’s standup has improved over time and while he still tends to focus on winning via submission when possible he’s proven he can also score points on the feet with good, accurate striking. Kalmisto bounces in and out of the clinch, keeping his opponents off-guard and taking advantage of skills in both areas. Expect him to potentially focus a bit more on the clinch tonight while trying to also prevent the fight from being dragged to the ground where Casey might be able to take advantage. Donkey’s Pick: Kalmisto via Unanimous Decision Not much to go on to differentiate these two for this contest but I like Kalmisto’s varied approach and attack on the feet. However, we’re going to learn really fast if he’s competent enough on the ground to fend off a good submission game! *********************** Undercard Bout #3: Welterweights Marcus Megnus Maximus Jr Maximus Jr (9-8-0) v Pete Dunham (2-5-0) Halfway through the Undercard and we get what SHOULD turn into a grappler vs. striker contest this evening. I say should…but there’s every bit as good a chance that Maximus Jr decides to stand and strike rather than take advantage of his superior skills in wrestling and Jiu Jitsu. Specifically, his ground and pound skills! Dunham is technically the better striker in this contest but hasn’t been able to translate his striking into wins over his past three fights, including his two most recent since joining us at Sucker Punch. He has, however, managed to lose in a variety of ways including submission, TKO and most recently unanimous decision. He will definitely be hoping to turn the tide this evening. Both fighters are fully prepared to enter the cage in the best shape possible tonight both physically and mentally. Who wants it more?!? Donkey’s Pick: Maximus Jr via TKO (Strikes) Dunham is just struggling to find his way in full MMA since making the switch from kickboxing. While he may be able to turn things around this evening if he can keep the fight on the feet it’s going to be imperative that he do just that. As well as impose his will while there. Otherwise, Maximus will get this to the ground and likely be able to control the action. *********************** Undercard Bout #4: Heavyweights Anton Meshkov (7-6-0) v Jeppe Bjoergen (6-9-0) Ok Donkey, time to bring on a couple more of the Heavyweights! We have a bunch of them ready to go tonight and this is our second pairing on the evening. I wish I could say that these two were just as prepared as the prior duo but unfortunately Meshkov comes into this fight with his morale about 35-40% off. And I know what that means when it comes to your pick Donkey! Meshkov will have the boxing advantage while the other areas of focus go to Bjoergen. No doubt Bjoergen is hoping that those advantages will pay off for him tonight so he can change his fortunes up and snag a win here. He’s lost three of his last four with two L’s in a row to Persson and Bobo Brazil. He seems especially susceptible to cuts as he’s lost three on his career due to doctor stoppages. His last win, three fights back, over Ryker came quickly in the first due to his nasty strikes to the head and body in the clinch. Will he slip back to those tactics tonight while trying to keep this fight up close and out of Meshkov’s preferred boxing range? Meshkov comes into this one needing a change of direction as well as he’s lost his last two fights in a row to Ashwin Tyson and then most recently Beardsley. When he loses it’s often via TKO or KO. At the same time, he loves to win via the same. It’s an all or nothing sort of approach for Meshkov! Donkey’s Pick: Bjoergen via TKO (Strikes) Everything in my gut is telling me that I should be picking Meshkov this evening. Especially given his striking history and likelihood he can get to Bjoergen’s tendency to bleed and possibly get the stoppage via TKO or cuts. But…that morale. I just can’t. You come in that low with morale, sure, you can still win but I’m not going to be giving you the nod as more often than not you won’t. *********************** Undercard Bout #5: Featherweights Count Dankula (6-2-0) v Carlos Villarreal (11-10-0) Our last fight of the Undercard and we’re not going to spend much time here. Why? Because both fighters are coming in unprepared to some degree. Villarreal a much larger degree than Dankula. And you know how I feel about unprepared fighters! Two of them in the same fight just makes me lose it a bit. Villarreal only has about 10% morale. That, combined with his 20% or so shortness of energy pretty much guarantees him the loss here unless he happens to land a lucky shot early. That’s unlikely. His management team has not done him any favors here since taking over. On the other side of the cage, Dankula also comes in off some, with his morale down about 20%. That’s surprising as I really did think that Team Ogan was going to be focused on trying to restore this guy to his former glory. This is not the way it’s done. Change those clothes people! He’ll likely win via TKO due to Villarreal’s disappointing condition…and end his two fight losing streak in the process…but damn, again, this is not the way to do it right and neither fighter deserves the win here. Donkey’s Pick: Dankula via TKO (Strikes) Everything that Hare just said. I’m not going to repeat or go into it any further than that. *********************** Main Card Bout #1: Light Heavyweights Abraham Barnes (6-7-0) v Roger Daly (3-1-1) Alright, Main Card time Donkey! Now, normally I’d be all excited because this is usually where the best fights lie and folks come prepared as they want to be the elite in their division. That’s not the case here, at least not for one side of the cage. Daly is ready for the most part, maybe slightly off on energy but not bad. Barnes however, is very, very disappointing this evening. Especially given that he had seemed to turn things around and was on a two fight winning streak heading into this evening’s event. However, he still hasn’t changed his clothes in all this time and his morale is down about 35-40%. Not good. Barnes has used solid, hard hitting enthusiasm to win his past two fights. But without his focus being fully on the fight tonight he’s likely at a disadvantage. Daly tends to focus a bit on both sides of things, striking with solid boxing skills while also not being afraid to put it on the ground to work the GnP as well as go for a submission now and then if opportunity knocks. He fought Bard to a draw last month in his Sucker Punch debut and if you look back three fights you can see that he’s willing to work his boxing, clinch skills and as we said, his GnP. He’s prepared no matter where the fight goes so the only question is…where will he take it tonight given Barnes’ morale will probably allow Daly to dictate the fight circumstances? Donkey’s Pick: Daly via TKO (Strikes) Barnes likely won’t have the morale to stand up to Daly this evening just as Hare said. It’s as simple as that. I don’t go with the unprepared fighter and more often than not that’s the right way to pick. *********************** Main Card Bout #2: Heavyweights Bobo Brazil (8-4-0) v Banana Republic (6-7-0) Republic just has not been able to make things click since joining Sucker Punch as he’s gone 1-4 since joining us and has lost his last two in a row. Brazil got things back on track some last month with a win over Bjoergen after the judges gave him the nod. However, prior to that he had two losses in a row here at Sucker Punch and another before that from his time at BBFC. He too needs a win here tonight just as badly as Republic! Last month Brazil brought an intense combination of kickboxing and Muay Thai to the table against Bjoergen. His kickboxing, while varied, relied heavily upon landing accurate shots to his opponent’s melon. He was accurate in other areas also, both hands and feet, but it seemed most of that was just the occasional distraction to set up another head shot. He also wanted that fight in and out of the clinch quite a bit, and worked head shots in the clinch even more heavily than when separated. He easily outscored Bjoergen on the cards. Tonight, he’ll have a significant advantage on the ground with his Jiu Jitsu. Will he even use it, or stick to what worked previously? Republic has the slightly better boxing and Muay Thai skills this evening, both sensational. The last time he won, three fights ago against Nordquist, he brought a heavy dose of nasty head shots to the table, landing only one complimentary body shot. He was accurate and powerful, scoring the TKO in short order. Will he stand and sling em again this evening? If so, and if Brazil plays ball, we could have one hell of a slobberknocker on our hands here! Donkey’s Pick: Brazil via TKO (Strikes) Republic has just struggled so much to find his way lately that it’s hard for me to pick him until I see him find his way again. Brazil has had his fair share of struggles as well, so I would say I wouldn’t be surprised if this fight goes either direction. It could turn out to be one of the most fun, active, brutal fights of the night though, so the fans better be prepared to catch this one! *********************** Main Card Bout #3: Heavyweights Jairzinho Teixeira (11-6-0) v Edward Mills (7-8-0) Alright, our last fight of the Main Card before we get into the final two Main Events, Donkey! And I have one big question here…Does Mills’ manager, Kyle F, just hate him or something? Or perhaps he just has a ridiculous amount of confidence that he can just throw Mills in there with anybody and Mills will happily just head into the cage and bang? Mills’ management has already looked past this fight and offered him up as fodder for ZaDarius Haden in an outside shot at earning a title fight! Now, being that nobody else has had the balls to step up for that opportunity, there’s a chance we may grant the request. But a win tonight would certainly help Mills’ case…or should I say, his manager’s case! Mills has the advantage in Muay Thai this evening, surprisingly, while Teixeira will actually be the one with the better boxing and wrestling, at least on paper. Teixeira has also managed to win two in a row heading into the cage tonight with victories over Ryker and then Andre Powell. If we go back a little further, he’s actually won four of his last five, so he’s definitely got his head on straight! Powell and Ryker are both pretty darn good strikers so Mills will definitely have his hands full and Teixeira could very well spoil the party for Mills and his Top Contender to be aspirations! Donkey’s Pick: Teixeira via TKO (Strikes) Unfortunately I have to go with Teixeira here as he seems to have just gotten things to click of late. That said, I’d love to see Mills get the chance to get in the ring with Haden. Because who doesn’t love a good lamb slaughter? The Saber Tooth himself may not be the apex predator in that contest! *********************** Co-Main Event: Featured Middleweight Bout John Doe (8-2-0) v Landon McGuire (7-3-0) Now we’re talking Donkey! Our Co-Main Event of the night and this one here may be one of the most intriguing fights of the night! This Middlweight contest won’t immediately set either fighter up for a title shot as is often the case with our Co-Main Events, but it will certainly elevate one of these guys towards that status with a quickness! Doe is the former Light Heavyweight champion here at Sucker Punch who successfully defended his title twice before losing it to Jacob Parker. That loss offered him the opportunity to step down a weight class as he’d been itching to do for some time. Unfortunately, his debut at Middleweight didn’t go as planned as he was submitted by Tanaka Matsuda last month as a rude “welcome” to the division! Matsuda took advantage of that win to move into a Top Contender battle himself. McGuire has a similar story in that he was the former SPPS Middleweight champion here after he started out the year with a win over Jim Beam to snag the belt and then defended it successfully twice against Sean Smith and Ainsworth. But then Machado returned to action with us here at Sucker Punch and quickly dethroned McGuire. A win over Oliver Allen recently looked to have put McGuire back on the path towards the top but then a second loss to Machado last month in their third ever meeting set him back again. What does all this mean? It means that McGuire and Doe both have some work to do to get back into the mix but a win against the other would certainly help a ton in that endeavor! Doe will bring an elite level of technical boxing to this fight while McGuire brings heavy hands but also a certain ability to end things via submission on the ground if it gets there. These two are both very skilled and very matched in primaries, so this fight comes down to secondaries, strategy and management…and even a little luck possibly! Donkey’s Pick: McGuire via Submission (Armbar) Doe may very well pull off what he does the best which is to point you to death on the judges’ cards while wearing you down and then possibly getting the TKO when you’re gassed. And if not, winning a decision with the judges. However, I do like McGuire’s flexibility here with options to strike or go to the ground and I’m going to lean towards that tonight given Doe’s recent submission loss. *********************** Main Event: Featured Welterweight Bout Red Crow (10-4-1) v Leroy Jinx (10-2-1) Well, if I was excited about the Co-Main Event tonight I certainly won’t be let down by our Main Event either! Another of P J Jones’ kids gets into it back to back with his other boy Doe here as Jinx takes on Crow in this Welterweight clash! Both of these kids, much like the last fight, are just about evenly matched across the board in primaries and again, this is going to come down to secondary skills, strategy heading in and even a bit of the ole Irish luck! Again, much like the last fight, both of these fighters are about one step away from a Top Contender battle and a shot at the title as the prize from that! You can bet that that, on top of being in the Main Event at a PPV style event in front of so many of our Sucker Punch fans will have them ready to bring their very best! Jinx held the Welterweight title at BBFC not once, but twice. If he’d won his first fight here at Sucker Punch he’d already have well earned a title shot. Unfortunately for him, Mister Lee had other plans and short circuited Jinx’s debut at SPPS with a triangle submission midway through the third round last month. Early in Jinx’s career he had a thing for scoring TKO’s to end fights. However, more recently during his title runs he leaned more towards going the distance and winning with the judges. He’ll likely come with a technically superior kickboxing attack that, if history repeats, may be heavy on head shots! Crow is a former champ as well but his title was held right here at home in this very Welterweight division at Sucker Punch! He defeated hard hitting Ronnie Bass in May to grab the belt but relinquished it the following month in his first defense against Juan Christiano. He fell short in his attempt to rebound against Keisuke Matsuzaka in a majority decision loss but did well returning to his hard striking roots to stop Ramon Rabbit last month via KO in the first round. That win sets him back on the right path and a win over Jinx would certainly put him right back into the contender picture! He’s no longer with Esiah Xavier’s team after Xavier departed MMA management, but is now under a just as successful manager in Stef Power. Will the Power camp have him come in trying to dish out just that, more power as he did in his last fight, or will he take another approach against the accuracy based Jinx? Donkey’s Pick: Crow via Split Decision This is going to be a hell of a fight and I can’t wait to see how it plays out! I’m just taking a shot in the dark here, both are led by fantastic managers and this is going to be a true war! *********************** So there we have it Sucker Punch fans! Get on down to Schooners tonight folks and join the party! The tailgating’s already going and Sydney is ready to have us make some noise! It’s time to do this folks. SPPS 86, TONIGHT…along with a special one hour PPV for those who want the full production value but can’t be there!!! Till then, have fun and don’t forget… Keep it cheap and dirty…Sucker Punch Pro Series 355k+ style!

CALI MMA-MONTHLY ROUNDUP (PART 1 OF 4) Hello again folks... damn hasn't it been a long-ass time since you lot saw me here, but hey good news, i'm back baby, so you guys don't have to suffer with Alfred's boring ass writeups anymore (Just kiddin lol, they are class...don't fire me please ). Now i know i've been out of touch with the organization for a while, and i also know that most of you would be very eager to take an in-depth look at what's been cooking in each of our divisions, hence it's your lucky day boys, cause here it is... 135 LBS STATE OF THE CHAMPION Champ: Tekashi Six Nine Tbh nothing much needs to be said about this guy other than the fact that this kid is unbeatable at the moment, and unfortunately for the rest of the fighters in this division, it's the harsh truth. I mean this kid has dominated the bantamweight division in 2 separate organizations now, so as much i would like to say that Tekashi Six Nine is just riding on a high and will eventually lose to some random donny, sadly (cause i have a fighter of my own in this division) i don't see it happening anytime soon. THE TITLE CONTENDER #1 CONTENDER: Schmedgar Dimms Now then, i have to be honest, when this guy stepped foot in CMMA, i personally didn't expect him to be a title contender so soon, but if his first performance was anything to go by, well he deserves this title shot. Well Mr Dimms here has had a very up and down career so far, as he has had some highs as a kickboxer, and then he has had to face the irony of losing a title fight while over at Blaze MMA, so all in all, he'll be hoping to put things right and win his first ever title next month. POSSIBLE TITLE CONTENDERS Caio Peieira Well, apart from getting outclassed by the champ, which btw happens to pretty much whoever faces the champ at this point, this guy has turned out to be one of the top contenders for the title if we go purely by performance, but up next, there is heavy rumours that he is going to be in an absolute dogfight with a guy who has just dropped a level from the featherweight division. So let's wait and watch what happens for him in the future, but rest assured he looks like a future title contender for sure. Joe Biden Well, let's get it out there, the guy who Caio is heavily rumoured to be matched up against is Joe Biden. Now, this guy has had a worldie of a time over at the 145lbs division for a while, but ever since that loss in the title fight, he's not been the same guy again, and therefore he desperately needed a change of scenary, and hence this move to a new division doesn't just put him in the mix for a title fight, but it also gives him a fresh start and a chance to prove himself to the public all over again. OVERACHIEVERS OF THE MONTH Rounin Hashima Going purely by the rankings which btw are fire (Great work Rail Solimar, kudos to ya brother) Rounin has had a pretty good month it looks like, and that win alongside a performance bonus has helped his cause a lot for sure, but even then, i think he has still got a fair few yards to travel before he reaches the stage of being a title contender, but nonetheless, he has further strengthened his grip at the top #5 spots in the division, and hence he will be looking to continue his very good progress in his next few fights to hopefully get closer to a title shot. 145 LBS STATE OF THE CHAMPION Champ: Yasha Big Mouth Now, this guy genuinely needs no introduction or any of that shit at all, cause he is simply, a flat out destroyer...and let me tell you, not many fighters get's me to call them destroyers, but honestly, this dude is scary as-F***, cause nobody and i mean abso-fuckin-lutely-nobody can stop this dude atm. The worst part being, the only person who looked to have his number is not even fighting in here anymore, so as sad as this might sound, i see Yasha dominating the Cali-MMA (Featherweight division for a long time to come). THE TITLE CONTENDER #1 CONTENDER: Middle Finger Now if there was ever an example of a guy succeeding after never giving up during dissappointments, then this is it, cause let me tell you, Mr finger here has gone through some tumultuous times in his career, but now under new management he simply looks like a man reborn...but will that be enough to dislodge a champ who looks ridiculously good atm? who knows, but one thing we know for sure will be, that the title fight is going to be one hell of an exciting bout which nobody would wanna miss. POSSIBLE TITLE CONTENDERS Keith Kenneth Ferkingstad Now another guy who has turned his career upside down for all the right reasons is this don...cause after a few shambolic perfomances in the beginning of his CMMA career, he has simply looked unbeatable since then, and is currently riding high with a 4-fight win streak, so he'll definitely be one of the guys who is right in the mix for a shot at the title, but for now, he'll simply need to wait for his chance. Slash Shredder Now this kid has simply been on an absolute tear through the division atm, as he is currently on a 3-fight win streak (all 3 contains performance related bonuses) and is seeing his name skyrocket through the division. But although he has looked emaculate so far, we have to keep his mind that he hasn't faced any of the big boys as of yet, so we'll just have to wait and watch where this guy ends up, but sky is the limit for this guy and that's for sure. OVERACHIEVERS OF THE MONTH Genkei Takahashi Well apart from a tough loss to the current number #1 contender, his career path seems to be heading very much in the right path at the moment, and the back to back wins has also helped him jump right up towards the top of the featherweight rankings, so all in all, he is having the time of his life at the moment probably, but we have to remember that everytime he has come across a top fighter or a top contender, he's lost..but nontheless, hopefully he's learnt his lessons the hard way and will finally unlock his hidden potential and win a title in the near future, but unfortunately all we can do is wait and watch. So that's it for part 1 of this monthly roundup of the divisions, i hope you guys liked it (leave a comment if you want me to make changes to the format of writing or if you want some specific info added to the writeup) so until next time, have a good day and cya!

So I'm probably going to get the year vip access and was wondering what if any type of organization is lacking. This game seems like great fun and if I can fill a need for a more rounded experience I'd like to. Thank you for any and all ideas.

Ladies and gentleman, today is the dawning of a new era in mixed martial arts. Years from now people will talk about the debut of my client, "Special K" Kenny Chang! What is an "Amsterdam Gangster"? His mother named him that? It doesn't matter because he is just the first step on Mr. Chang's journey to immortality. Regards, Michael Prime - Manager/Hype Man

John Fury: I dominated in the clinch, dominated at range. He tried taking it to the ground and I would have loved to dominate there too. I don't fear punches, I don't fear my opponents. But there is that lady with the sharp pen and all I could think of inside that cage was her coming after my ass with it. That thing hurts worse than a low blow. So I had to skip over the ground game and finish things up with a few good old punches to the face. Thanks to my new manager for believing in me and making this possible. 3 in a row straight to the title! And thanks to the Sucker punch staff I guess for the eeh.. unorthodox ways you motivate your fighters, that shit works.

Pros and cons. You never want to lose an org like PFC but Syn is finally the undisputed uncontested UFC of tycoon. This is a true milestone, the amount of top ranked fighters crowding its divisions are a beautiful thing. All that Chuck money finally paid off and kstacks just needs to remember to click the PPV button to keep the ship rolling. The current fighter pool doesn't bode well for more unrestricted orgs, and restricted ID orgs have to deal with the PPV orgs feasting on their talent as the ID fighters skills start to max out and they clean their divisions or start to look for higher ranked opponents. Hardcore and WCF are in a tough position with the PPV orgs chomping at the bit. Syn > SFL > Combate > GAMMA > Odense appears to be the hierarchy for the unrestricted PPV org talent pool. GAMMA and Combate are close but Combate will win the sprint, Mentor has proven to be all about the war of attrition. It's a shame @bjornmma1 must rot in the Gulag because there's a lot of fighter hype the game could use, but the comical aspect of it brings me great joy.

To Mike, it doesn't matter who buys the VIP. Even though the multi accounts don't pay actual cash for the VIP days, they do use up the days that someone somewhere paid for. It really makes no difference to mister tycoon where the money comes from. More VIP accounts=more purchases by someone.

Paddy "360°" Mcgillicutty 6-1-0 321 p4p I am stoked about the upcoming fight against Satanic Panic this weekend. We have some history together and might not be best buddies by a landslide, but I do respect him as a fighter. We both stop most (if not all) of our opponents by strikes or submission in quick fashion. We are quick finishers. Oh ok, that might sound weird. We finish others quick. Oh ok, that might sound weird as well. Aaaah well, I am weird, so don't care. See you soon Panic, don't panic!
