  2. Not mine but thanks. Jonny Showtime refuses to use the forums I will be doing all the previews though and Showtime will be doing all the reviews.
  3. Damn it all of his fights he has been on the right. My guy with the chin. I was hopeing I had something spechial.
  4. The first HFC event is in the books and if you are a fan of quick finishes then this event was for you. Three fights lasted less than 30 seconds and only four fights made it past the three minute mark. Before I get into the action I want to inform you all that at the end of this review I will tell you the winners of the bonuses. Let’s get started. Cross vs Perruzi: This was a very odd fight to me. Early on it appeared that Cross was not sure exactly what he wanted to do as he went from clinch to takedown and then standing back up. Eventually his mind appeared made up and he went to the clinch and proceeded to dominate the fight. Perruzi also baffled me a little in this fight. While not being know for his wrestling he continuously tried, and failed, to take the fight to the ground. Perhaps he thought it was where he matched up best. In the end the only thing that did not confuse me about this fight was the way it was scored with Cross winning all cards 30:27. It is hard to tell exactly what is next for either of these fighters but with 145 being very thin at the moment Cross has put himself in a good spot to make a claim for the winner of next weeks title fight. Trzcinski vs Bowman: Not a lot to write about this one as Trzcinski came out aggressive and never even let the bjj fighter have a chance to take the fight to the ground. It only took 17 seconds for this one to be stopped and Trzcinski certainly made some people take notice. A fight against Skarstad seems to make a lot of sense for Trzcinski after this one and we will see if he has a quick turnaround after suffering no damage. Boy vs Obelix: First let me give huge credit to Obelix for managing to make it to the third round in this fight. This wasn’t the fight Boy wanted but since his original opponent wanted nothing to do with him Obelix stepped up. In the end though, Boy was way too much for him to handle. Boy’s skills were on display everywhere in this fight. Obelix was rocked early in the fight but was able to recover. Unfortunately he was never able to mount any kind of offense. Boy finished the fight in the third with a nasty looking superman punch that turned the lights out on Obelix. Boy looked good, very good, and will no doubt see top competition in his next fight, if not a title fight. Churchill vs Barun: This fight was certainly far more competitive than anything else on the card up to this point. Churchill was clearly the better range striker as he picked Barun apart and nearly finished him in the first. After that, however, Barun started to find success when he went to the clinch. The problem was that Barun did not feel content to stay in the clinch where he had the advantage. Barun also did a good job scoring on leg kicks. In the end both fighters showed some skills and Churchill looks as if he can strike with the best. Churchill may find himself on the short list for a title fight with this win. Tugbajev vs Orlov: Not a lot to report here. Tugbajev got it to the ground and dominated from there. Orlov had no chance at offense in this fight so what he can do will remain a mystery for another time and Tugbajev will likely see a title fight very soon. Sunday vs Sanchez: Well it was no mystery what each fighter wanted to accomplish in this fight. Sunday tried to keep it standing and Sanchez wanted to be on the mat. Sunday fended off all of Sanchez's attempts in the first but Sanchez managed to get him to the ground in the second. This led us to the third in a clear 29:29 situation. It ended up being Sunday who managed to have his way in the third and with a weak 135 lb division Sunday now finds himself near the top. Skalny vs Jackman: This fight was fast and action packed. Jackman looked to be in trouble right out of the gate when Skalny landed a combo that left Jackman cut. Not losing his composure Jackman scored a takedown and went to work with ground and pound. A huge hammer fist left Skalny out and Jackman with a huge win. Frederiksen vs Force: This fight ended in the blink of an eye. Force came out and tried to score the takedown. After a failed attempt Frederiksen caught him with the only punch he truely needed to throw in the fight as Force went down and after a few more shots that were not really needed the ref jumped in. Frederiksen did not need much energy to win this fight so it will be interesting to see if he enters the cage again very soon. Eastwood vs Noro: With the 205 title being decided in the fight that would follow both fighters may have been looking to get noticed in this fight. Eastwood did just that. Noro had a moment of success in the clinch but after his corner called for him to release it Eastwood never looked back. Dodging everything Noro threw Eastwood rocked him before finishing with a big right cross. Eastwood put his name in title contention with this impressive performance. Stromberg vs Vidal: We knew that Stromberg would need a miracle to get past Vidal but he did not help his cause with the early takedown. Once on the ground Vidal was immediately able to lock in a triangle and put the first HFC title around his waist. It is hard to see who will be Vidal's next opponent but early indications would be Eastwood if he is up for it.
  5. http://www.mmatycoon.com/fighterprofilemanager.php?FID=237541 He had a 14- in his first fight and 15+ in both of his last two. His IQ test also hit 147
  6. Cardio and Flex are the highest I thought. Most physicals take over the other hiddens. Thats why I am confused as to why my granite chin keeps showing.

  10. Most of my fighters have scored over 100 on their IQ test. but the thing that I question I have asked already and didnt get an awnser I liked. I have a fighter who is 15+ in conditioning. Total points 146 and he still shows granite chin. I thought Cadio machine would or should over take that but nope, still granite chin.

  15. im happy its for MMA hype personally. I only joined in hopes of winning the grand prize. Set my fighter up to make and easy transition into MMA so it works for me.
  16. one guy is also moving down as they are meeting at 185. Newton is legit though in Barbarian IMO. I am a big Newton fan. Silva has not won a title so I see the point of not calling it a super fight. Mia vs Newton on the other hand would be.
  17. Last 4- Brazil, Germany, Italy, Portugal Final Brazil vs Italy Winner- Italy I so want the USA to get out of the group of death but it aint going to happen.
  18. Thats not fair because Mentor should already be banned. How about Castor vs Mentor if Castor wins he gets GAMMA and if Mentor wins everyone in Barbarian will buy a year suply of Penis Enlargment pills and send out 20 Nigerian Prince Emails.
  19. brown belt vs blue belt is not going to tell you who is the better ground fighter. We seen Newton sub people with a higher belt in BJJ. Someone could create a fighter with 110 in BJJ giving them a brown belt but then give themself 1 in submissions and some points in degrapple. They may want to ground and pound, or work the subs up because submissions give you so many points to your BJJ. I think judging a fighter based on his belt in BJJ is the hardest thing to do becasue u just dont know. A blue belt with 100 points in submissions would submitt a black belt or hell even a red belt who had 1 point in defensive grappling.
  20. Defensive grappling - Groundwork only. Consider it both sub defense and also a little positional defense. Transitions - Moving from one position to another on the ground. Also helps prevent other fighters from transitioning to a better position. Escapes - Your fighter will need this to get back to his feet, if he is on the ground. This is from the wiki. Now I have had fighters stand up from top position with no skill points in Escapes other than the one you have to put there. So from what I am gathering Defensive grappling will help you defend submissions and defend against sweeps. Transitions will help you sweep and pass to better positions and also aid Def Grappling in preventing sweeps. Escapes only help you get back up, so if you are on top you dont need to much escape and if you are on bottom you would need all three. So from what I am gathering you dont need any Escapes at all if you have high defensive grappling and transitions.
