Oldbones

Mr. Takahashi: Hey you were better a year ago but if Psiris is the standard then why in your last 8 fights is he 3-5 and Longsun is 5-3? And at least Longsun didn't lose twice to some 170lb midgets. But it's okay, your cardios failing in your old age with all those round 3's and 4's and Marka must have choked too many of those brain cells to death, otherwise you'd have noticed if not Kazuma, Longsun would have been going for that title which it'll be awhile before you get a third shot to disappoint.

Mr. Takahashi: And so another victory for Team Lundgren has come, the only difficulty we had was we don't pick fights, we only accept them. But like the great race of Saiyan warriors our fighters grow stronger with each loss which is exactly why Yellowbelt Casey should be afraid of his rematch against Akara, after 6 losses his power level is now over 9000! Hazuki has also come a long way having been taken under Mattias Lundgren's wing for personal training emphasizing his personal style which is nothing to balk at with a 12-2 record and looks forward to evening out his record to 3-3 in 30 days.

Mr Takahashi: Kazuma-san's recent performance really should have won KO of the night, not that Kulina's KO wasn't impressive but after all he was just copying the moves he clearly watched in the previous round adding showboating to them a right to knock the opponent to the mat then a follow up power punch, but unlike catching someone by surprise Kazuma and Zhao lately have been proving that even if you don't have KO power, that as they say, "doesn't mean you can't knock a mfer out"

How humble of Paddy to clinch a victory in the last 2 seconds of round 2 and not even mention it, clearly he's done some soul searching from his last defeat and come back as a true warrior and competitor.

Akara Kongsangchai on recent defeat: It's too late for me to be a champion, I may never win another fight again but I'm committed to training constantly and proving now that I am the toughest fighter in the world, not just Sucker Punch. Mountains may not get to move and feel the rain and elements but everyone remembers their stoic nature, and I'll be remembered too. Kaoru Nagashima: Once more I came from the mountain with the great Akirono's blessing, he had been dissatisfied with my exhibition of the Cobra Clutch and my famous Cobra Bite and shamed me, but after I bested him in wrestling again he requested I not always exhibit his sacred moves. I thought it may be time to show my new ultimate move the Crackling Cutter of Contant Pain but that I will save for another time, I've found it's much easier to punch people in the face repeatedly. Longsun Zhao: For some reason they quoted me as having lost my last fight after I won an award nearly half of my fights won awards, this fight I was determined to make them remember why. The championship means nothing to me, Kazyu can have it, I've got my scores to settle and I will start with the first, which now that he's done losing to children in the 170lb division, Hey Psiris, Commmme outtt tooo pllaayyyy

Bjorn Akerfeldt: You know I won the fight right Risa? I found the one sub out of 7 that worked in round 1, but maybe I should take your advice so I can take more blows to the head. #notreally #subsnothugs #moosemeat4lyfe

That one's awesome it's blended so well it almost looks like one of the Bruce Li/Lei/Le clones they used to fill the void after his death.

Hey, would anyone be interested in making an avatar? Looking for one of Bruce Lee preferably Fist of Fury (Chinese Connection) or Game of Death for the base. Willing to pay 50k+ Also looking for a John Wick and Keanu Reeves one, same rates.

No worries, it's a game and everyone wants to keep their fighters active. Deon's a great fighter to have sidelined, just wanted to make sure you got the same bonus as the other managers in the org for that, I'm sure he'll do well in BBFC and who knows maybe we'll make the rematch happen one day with a cross org fight.

Hey guy's due to my previous inactivity for a bit I'm looking to bring someone onboard to help as a Co-Manager with KoF so we don't have anymore downtime. Looking to have someone interested in recruiting,renegotiating,and event planning. Offering 1 year of VIP Time per Year to the interested parties.

Who can blame you? We have the best belt around and check your offers, that chance to come wearing this one is around the corner.

Not entirely wrong, I did spend a good part of the weekend hiking with my Chow (like a husky, less aerodynamic, more high class, and smarter though) In other news to all the IW Crew, my clicking finger hurts after dealing out these Iron Wolf Stimulus Checks (don't worry, all paid for by Gamestop)

Nothing but apologies to my Iron Wolf family, I had a death in the family during February and selfishly ducked out during my birthday this last week to recharge on everything. I'm back in full force and going to dig this shit out of the hole I left it in. Anyone who needs offers, or immediate match ups message me I'm going to be on much more frequently now.

I've got no problem being transparent so I can elaborate further on anything, and also It's weird and kind of funny because people tell me about how horrible Bjorn is, throwing around the terms weasel and other more unsavory ones but in my dealings Paddy/Bjorn has actually been extremely easy to work with and the title shot guarantee was something I had at the infancy of the org. currently there are no guarantees like that in my org and aside from the initial cadre I believe only Three of Five was signed for a title shot because I was scrambling for competitors at least close to Panics league, Paddy was a relatively early sign on and so it's been the last guarantee for a bit now. As for training, generally when a fighter asks me for time to train I don't think there's been an instance where I've turned it down I was actually gearing up to offer a Paddy V Dragon fight but De Toro/Panic surprised me with that win and then this all happened. I wasn't coerced into anything though I just weighed my involvement and both Manne and Bjorn gave their sides I just aligned with Paddy on this one, when you're eating crow it doesn't matter whether it's the left wing or the right one it's still only 1/3 of the Fight Milk secret recipe.

Nah not BS, it was a guarantee for his 3rd fight as a title fight not just for the offer. Either way I wasn't winning this one though because what I wanted and proposed Manne didn't agree with (I was going to pay managers the VIP time to make a 17 year old, do a TUF style tournament with Panic/Paddy leading their teams who would have fought for the 145lb title) and then Manne's 5 fight rule was excessive for Paddy, and he didn't want the KKF fight so I made a call. Is what it is but I don't think Panic/KKF are going to have a hard time out of things.

Unfortunately not, Manntosen's morals were too strong to be bought. He did offer to let Paddy have a title shot if he won over Keith Kenneth which I hoped for but that was not to Paddy's liking and again I made the original deal with him. I generally don't make anyone fight when they don't want to, some people want to train for 2-3 months, look great on paper, and still lose their next fight (which happened to me) other times I don't have competitors that can really stand close to the remaining older id's so it lets things stagnate. With the Paddy/Panic situation it was unique in that there've only been 2-3 fighters I've signed with title shots within a certain time frame, with Paddy the only one to not yet actualize. As for his hype I haven't really paid attention since he broke the top 1000 p4p because that metric hasn't factored into my decision making so much since my org is mostly low hype/pop fighters anyway and I'll be the first to admit I'm still learning the ropes a year into playing now where my primary focus was on matching players with more even skills which I also made some poor calls there admittedly. Unfortunately real life interfered in a lot of my plans and most recently a death in my family took me out of commission for a bit while I sorted out that, but I'm back and not trying to dick anyone over, I just want to keep the promises I make and build my org back up to its full potential so feel free to pile on the questions and suggestions to me.

Been a long time coming now for this fight. When I first signed Paddy, I made the offer financially lucrative as well as promised a title shot within 3 fights. Unfortunately Panic and him had their difficulties and although I tried every form of mediation (Large in game cash, a year of VIP, making a tournament for a new division with Paddy/Panic acting as team heads for a tournament, asking nicely) available to me we could not see eye to eye and make the fight happen although recently the only one really on the same skill level as Panic was Paddy. With a regretful hand I let Panic/KKF go at a massive loss obviously but commend him on sticking to his morals, but for now as I get back into the swing of things after some personal issues, I'll be ringside at the triple crown and look forward to seeing 3 new KoF Champions and hopefully a new start as well.

Big words from the two most exciting heavyweights in KoF who definitely have the ability to back them up, let's see though who has that Iron Wolf blood running through their veins. If this fight ends in KO, I'll send a nice $100,000 bonus to the Manager's account faster than they can get back to the locker room and check their bank statement!

Bjorn Akerfeldt: Was hoping to see the writeup on my smooth finish in but I'm glad to see my first fight in Suckerpunch put me into my rightful place in the top contenders. I see they decided to put me against a bear which for those of you who followed me from Checkmate you'll know my IAHFL (International Animal-Human Fight League) record put me at 1-0 against Grizzly Adamsonovich with a beautiful KO as you can catch on the replay, looking forward to putting me 2-0 in 2 categories! Lets GOOOOOO!

Iron Wolf: Full Moon Showdown #2: Mattias Lundgren: Welcome back everyone to the second full moon showdown, we're here with our hosts Ethan "E.C." Commissaire and Beau Hogan another exciting card with a perfect mix of talent between newcomers, seasoned vets, and the last minute underdog replacement. Take it away E.C. Blinko "Smelly" Felly (4-2-0) vs. Trey Diesel (9-10-0) E.C.: Our first fight of the night we have Smelly Felly vs Diesel, both qualified QFC fighters Smelly comes in at 4-2 with 2 recent losses both via KO and Trey Diesel coming off a recent submission win over Jack Jackson with an immense back catalog at 9-10 astounding for a 19 year old fighter. Beau: Maybe we should call Trey Diesel "Vendetta", when we look at his record looks like most of his losses came from 1 opponent Sam Salter going 1-6 against him, and then 6 of his nine wins split even between Scott Trip and Chelsea Salvacion. Either way though it looks like we have two submission fighters here so I'm expecting a lot of ground game starting off the night. Prediction: Trey Diesel Win via Submission Trey Diesel goes in with a bit more moral, a ton more energy, and wrestling ability over his competitor we expect this one to go to the ground and Trey to wear Blinko down by Round 2. to bring him to an even 10-10. Unless Smelly can come out the gate with superior striking and shock us all this looks like a done deal. Luis "The Strangler" Santos (2-2-0) vs. Bartek "BigBoi" Nowak (2-1-0) Beau: These two also have a similar build like our previous fight with leaning towards grappling with slight Muay Thai. Santos comes in with a 10cm height advantage and also a 5 year age difference. E.C.: Santos has a key advantage here though as well while his morale has suffered, Bartek looks like a broken man with no morale whatsoever which as we know the heart is the biggest part of this game. After a NC and a Decision Loss I don't think this is going to go Big Boi's way. Prediction: Santos Win Via Submission There just doesn't seem to be a pathway to victory for Nowak here, going in totally decimated in morale. This will probably be a round 1 finish and hopefully after Nowak changes his clothes and takes a break to focus his head. Oakley "The Tree" Fisher (2-4-0) vs Mauro Okongwu (0-1-0) Beau: Unfortunately the first 3 fights this night look like they'll all be going one way and Morale is going to be the key factor in this evenings results across the board, While Oakley has experience in the cage he is 1-3 here in KoF and goes into this with exceptional disadvantages across the board between height, skill, and morale. E.C.: While Oakley has the age advantage it looks like Mauro has just had the superior training regime and like you mentioned morale plays a key part in these matches, even though he's 0-1 I expect we're going to see the Tree meet the axeman when King Kong Okongwu comes through and pummels him. Prediction: Okongwu Win Via TKO This looks one-sided in multiple different ways aside from current spot rankings, expecting a quick and triumphant finish from Okongwu to propel him up in the rankings to a long career in the upper echelons at KoF. With Fisher hopefully he can learn from this as well and take the time to build up but at his age not sure if he'll be able to rise above a mid card. BON "JONES" BONES (0-0) VS Aboubacar Mandiang (1-0-0) E.C.: For our next fight we're going to a new competitor to the game Bon Bones vs Aboubacar Mandiang, if Mandiang is anything like the other fighters from Senegal to come into the cage then we're going to be looking at a dominant performance. Beau: Bon's got a fight ahead of him but hey what better way to break into the industry, while Mandiang has him outclassed for the most part they're about equal in their BJJ best bet for him would be when they clinch up which I'm sure they will, to take this to the ground and try to get that submission in. Prediction: Mandiang Win Via TKO While there's a chance of Bones coming out on top with equal Jiu Jitsu, the age difference and skills hedge this in favor of Mandiang and we expect a rd. 2 finish pushing Mandiang up to 2-0. Luiz "El Tomador de Almas" Mendoza (2-0) VS Robert "Cell" Frost (2-3-0) Beau: This is one of the ones I've been looking forward to when I heard this card was going down, with Frost coming in a bit superior on his Thai style fighting and Mendoza coming out of the same camp as my boy Paddy he rocked us all with that debut KoF KO while this could go to the ground I think both are going to keep this standing and go toe to toe. E.C.: That KO was definitely one to remember and also one of the few times you can say you finished in under 30 seconds and it be a good thing! I'm geared up to see Frost keep this standing and the back and forth, hopefully he can keep his distance from those power gloves Mendoza rocks. Prediction: Mendoza via TKO While this fight may go the distance, the past two performance prove Mendoza's a favorite in multiple pathways to victory but if there's one thing we see from this fighter it's making statements like someone else in his camp. The ground game may be a fallback but assume this will go for awhile before the kill shot gets setup. Aaron "Destroyer" Spears (4-4-0) VS Tony "The Crunch" Harrington (2-3-0) Beau: And now we get closer to the main event we have an interesting old s new mix again Spears is a long time fighter in KoF and one of the first contenders for the title which he lost to an incredibly dominant Muise. He came back with a decision win but enters on the back of two losses. Harrington on the other hand has also been with KoF since his pro career began but had an opposite trajectory finding his stride and coming in on back to back wins. E.C.: Spears has age and immense striking capabilities on his side but I'm thinking the same thing that Harrington has found his stride and if there's one thing wrestlers know how to do it's neutralize standing opponents. I'm expecting this to go to the ground and become a ground and pound royal rumble on both ends. Prediction: Harrington win via split decision While a standup battle is one sided we think Harrington has what it takes to go down to the ground and work over spears with those ground shots as Spears prefers a stand up approach and most recently lost on the ground as well. That being said age and experience will work its way in and we expect a 3 round fight with Harrington winning via those gnp points he'll wrack up. Carter Wright (1-0-1) VS Pierce "Beastie" Perkins (3-1-0) E.C.: OOoohh this is one I want to see power vs power here, Carter Wright comes in off a KO victory on Halloween night over Thrawn Palpatine and excels in boxing, slightly in Muay Thai, and slightly in BJJ over his opponent, Perkins though is worth his nickname as beastie, with 3 RD 1 KO's and his last loss on Halloween vs the Senegal Stormtrooper Nokkau who goes on to a title rematch next week. Beau: Can't even fault Perkins on that loss, Nokkau is a monster and no doubt future champ material as he goes into his second title shot. Perkins has gone the distance with legends, literally like Bob of Legend! We're definitely going to see some super saiyan power shots here and one thing I'm certain is these guys are going to put it all out there on the mat. Prediction: Wright via late round KO Pierce is an amazing competitor, Wright has the slight skill advantage and morale benefit, this one we're expecting to see a lot of clinch tie ups and expert level striking with Wright coming in late after the two are worn down and getting the shots that count in. Regardless of which way this goes though we're looking at two fighters most likely going for a title shot on this one. Dizzy Knox (2-0) VS Garry Almeida (2-1-0) Beau: Striking vs Jiu Jitsu, my favorite Dizzy Knox showed us his top notch striking capabilities in his recent TKO over Son Goku who just couldn't get the Kaioken in time and Garry has shown us his skills on the ground with two rd 1 submissions and also a significant age advantage. E.C.: You know me Beau, I love to give it to the wrestler but Knox true to his name shows he can knock people tf out and that also seems to be Almeida's weakness after Satanic Panic KO'd him in their last fight. Maybe he's upped that striking defense though and we'll see him through to get that ultimate rematch but I'm going to hinge on Knox this time. Prediction: Knox win via Unanimous Decision Almeida is definitely going to take this to the ground, but one thing we can be sure of is Knox is not useless there and as a Thai Fighter and Boxer he can most likely handle himself in the clinch and stop those takedowns. We're expecting a war of attrition with Knox getting the shots in while Almeida attempts to put this to the ground and end it quickly, 5 rounds we'd run it for Almeida but on the shorter cycle going to hedge it for Knox this time. Reece "Left Shoe" Foy (4-3-0) VS Archibald Atckinson (2-0-0) E.C.: Into our co-main event again with that favorite matchup Foy has come back from a depressed slump against title contender and current champ respectively Nokkau and Zaintashara with two recent wins and Archie boy has shown he's an expert level striker with two KO victories there is also a significant age advantage for Foy to really utilize those ground moves. Beau: But here we go again with that old friend of ours morale, Foy is no doubt a strong competitor but it seems like he hasn't done the maintenance to bring himself back up and enters this fight at a severe disadvantage there. Prediction: Atckinson Win via TKO We're thinking this is going to go to round 2, Foy will come out strong and tie Atckinson up as best he can but between energy and motivation there's no doubt that unless Foy can tie him up like a pretzel that vigor is going to be the deciding factor and Atckinson will show us where he belongs on the 185 stage. MAIN EVENT SAM DRNOLD (3-5-0) VS SATANIC PANIC (5-1-0) E.C.: Hey wasn't Satanic Panic known by a different name before? Beau: shhhhhhhhh, anyway Sam Drnold comes into this fight on 4 days notice, I heard they tried to get a hold of Paddy but the phone was cutting out on the yacht or something along those lines. So major props to rising to the occasion and saving the event, Sam comes in off of 2 losses but has skills as a wrestler and boxer to really send in those dirty boxing vibes, Satanic Panic has some pretty good standup skills but excels on the ground with a blackbelt in BJJ and some moderate Wrestling ability. E.C.: I can see this one going either way, Drnold comes from a similar background as his teammate Quinnen Williams and if those skills are to be believed then this fight could end in a KO, but a black belt is not trifling accomplishment the two are definitely going to be going for the takedowns but which will prevail a GNP or a Sub victory? Prediction: Satanic Panic Win Via Submission While these two fighters have exceptional skills, both will most likely go to the ground and it's there that we'll see Satanic Panic really work those smooth transitions and lock up Drnold like a pretzel, highly bet within 3 rounds. Drnold's not out by a long shot but the morale, lack of prep time, and his mixed bag on decision losses and sub losses swing in favor of Panic, but as usual dark horses can always pull in the lead and Quinnen was very succesful with that ground and pound strategy going back to reclaim his title in the coming weeks so that team clearly has some expert coaching too. Mattias Lundgren: And there you have it ladies and gentleman the second Full Moon Showdown, as always Feel the Iron, Become the Wolf, we'll see you all in our post fight review later!

Bjorn Akerfeldt: One of these days I'll show you all my boxing abilities but I wanted to show you all why I'm in the top 10, and I wanted to take it easy on my opponent a great boxer but after his speech clearly he took too many shots to the head because we agreed to this weeks ago and last I checked he's older than me!? So who's next, I'm ready to go again!

Bjorn Akerfeldt: It took awhile to get going in my fight against Zane and unfortunately once I found my groove that was the last bell, something tells me we'll have a rematch at five rounds in the future. For now I can't wait to take on Creed tomorrow and prove my spot in the top ten!

Then I guess next time will be for the belt and I'll get those 5 rounds, for bow though Im ready to take on anyone get me back in that cage!

Bjorn Akerfeldt: Congrats to my opponent tonight, he's a really tough competitor and we were cut short, I feel by round 3 I was just getting into my stride and the fight was over. But Oh well, can't wait for the rematch! If Zane's interested I know Mattias would put a 250k incentive for an immediate rematch with 5 rounds.

In preparation for his fight against Zane Alexander, Bjorn Akerfeldt recently flew into Siberia to take an amateur fight in the IHAFL* (International Human-Animal Fight League) against their reigning champion Grizzly Adamsonovich. Grizzly held his ground with his superior grappling abilities for two rounds but ultimately Bjorn was able to maneuver through the clinch and score a TKO via Kick just at the tail end of round 2 bringing his current record to 2-0 MMA and 1-0 ISMMA (Inter-Species MMA) when asked for comment he had the following to say. "Zane is a beast with superior wrestling and eating kilos of raw meat, so I thought to myself 'Bjorn, who wrestles the best and eats raw meat, then I remembered my own name, that's right, bears" but they're out of season back in Sweden so I was prepped to spar the rest of Team Lundgren til the call came through to go to Siberia and fight their reigning champ. He was really strong! but luckily I was able to get the upper-hand and think I've got a good insight into my coming fight now." *The IHAFL is an unofficial league with no standing in the world MMA community, fights have not been approved by USADA, and the World association for animal rights finds them questionable at best.
