5 - seen you quite a bit on the forums recently. You seem to make some reasonable posts

I would like to be tossed into the mix to represent England, if possible

As an in-game writer, i'd certainly be interested in doing some real life MMA

3 - think i've only seen you in the forums a couple of times, sorry if you are a big vet of the game that I haven't found out about yet, I have only been here 6 months

I genuinely think that Trump has played a lot of people here. Obviously he has the old fashioned rednecks riled up; and being from Britain, it's shocking to see the rampant racism in both our countries. However, I don't truly believe Trump will run America how he says he will. He's not gonna build a wall. He's not gonna banish Muslims from the USA. He is saying this stuff both to target a group that never cares about the election; and also to get much more media attention than anybody else in the race. On that basis; anyone's better than Clinton; Trump won't leave his email unencrypted letting other countries potentially spy on top secret government operations. He also will not (I don't think) use private investigators to hunt down and intimidate people who know something about him that he doesn't want others to know.

Sounds good guys good luck to all involved

Hey guys; I am trying to make some money for my org, so I am offering my writing services to the highest bidder.

I believe it's first September but it's impossible to be sure

http://www.mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=821898 This fight was not in one of the top 5 orgs in the game, I know. But the run the guy who lost this fight was on was incredible. Salvtore Corozzo, the champion, had only lost twice; both by decision, and had decimated the best the SP ICON welterweight division had to offer. On top of this; he is managed by Nick Force, one of the best mamagers in the game. Axl Rose, although he had been on a good run, had never faced anyone near the level of Corozzo, and had a record of 9-6. There will be other shouts for the 2016 awards i'm sure; but I wanted to make a case for this one. Many congratulations to Mark O'Sullivan for pulling this one off

ICON is in

The guy never actually said he wanted to leave; he just said "fuck this game". Is it possible we are all taking this the wrong way?

I think Team Merc should be done away with. That just makes it too complicated

I have also been wondering this, because couldn't people use primaries to hide their fighters true abilities if they were smart about it?

How brilliant that this thread has gone on for so many pages

How much VIP would someone be prepared to buy for one million dollars?

When I looked at Galvao I just saw a guy who was 2-1 and got pretty brutally knocked out. However; with the knowledge that you lost this fight intentionally, I would say he has a lot of potential, Strong jiu jitsu with a granite chin is a pretty lethal combination, as long as he has good physicals, which most of your fighters seem to

Master Leader: You have yourself a very good roster there sir. A very young roster too I might add. Best Fighter: Your best fighter for me is Shovel Knight at this moment in time is Shovel Knight. I know he is the highest rank so it seems an obvious pick, however he is a current champion in a very young roster; he is one of the most experienced fighters in a young roster. I also just love guys that can win by both knockout and submission, he is awesome. Only thing I might be worried about is that all of his knockouts are losses at a relatively low weight; but this is not a major concern as of yet. One to Watch: Bragi Ragnarson. He may have been down as your best fighter if you'd have had him for longer; but you have only managed him for two fights so Knight gets the nod. Either way this guy is a beast; he is a terrifying heavyweight. 10-1 with all wins being knockouts, and 9 of those knockouts in the first round. This guy is a straight up killer; he looks great after his move to heavyweight as well. He has popped knockout power and a granite chin from the very beginning, he has all the tools to become a top heavyweight. I look forward to seeing how you do with him. Honourable Mentions: Nobody on your roster is terrible; Cung Le has hit a speed bump, but his combination of power; heart and chin should allow him to get back in the W column before too long. Arjen Overeem is also a solid fighter. He has big KO power, particularly in his head kicks. However; I like the fact that he also has a solid boxing game and good clinch work to back him up when he needs to grind out the decisions. The only worry would be his chin at this stage; he is not old enough to have a proper glass jaw just yet, but he seems to struggle against boxers who can avoid his head kicks and clinch game. Potential but must be handled correctly, I have every faith you will do this. Hot prospect: Deontay Hunter is a hell of a prospect. After he lost his first fight; you clearly did something with his training or sliders that has made him look like a monster ever since. He has great power and is yet to lose a round in the cage. He has barely lost a minute. His only loss is one where he dominated the fight then managed to get taken down and submitted with only a couple of minutes to go. He has improved and I would like to see him against some more well rounded competition to test his abilities. His chin and heart has not been tested yet because he has beat the crap out of everyone he has fought. Worst Fighter: Leo Sonnen is not too great. He is experienced and is a good wrestler; however seems to struggle for consistency. He seems to just alternate wins with losses and doesn't really have any great hiddens. His striking is improving; but it's obvious from his fights that his go to move is takedowns and GNP; which gets harder to implement the further up the game you go. He is young enough to still improve but I wouldn't hold your breath, he isn't making it to the creme of the crop. Another One: "The Brixton Brawler" Wampage Johnson narrowly avoided the worst fighter tag as I believe he has faced slightly better competition than Sonnen. He's big; he's strong, he has power, he has a granite chin, although the latter seems to have deserted him as he has been knocked out in four of his last five fights. His recent record is terrible and there doesn't seem to be a Plan B for him when he is losing in the striking department. Overall: You have a young roster; (like me) so it's difficult to talk about them too much without getting carried away. There is a lot of potential, and you as a manager seem very tactically astute and you know how to pick those free agents. I am certain you will grow in this game and make a big impact. Good luck

It is a good concept; but not always used correctly. It seems to be put out at very random times

Main Event: GSP vs Anderson Silva Co Main: Brock Lesnar vs Fedor Mighty Mouse vs Cruz 2 Frank Mir vs Fabricio Werdum Lyoto Machida vs Demian Maia

I'd be very interested in helping out with the podcast if it's still going on. It could be a lot of fun

Thank you Timqwe. I will try this

Hey guys, dunno if this has happened to anyone else. The city my fighter fights in is not his Base city. He had a fight yesterday; which he won, then a fight has been booked for him immediately after. However now, when I try to move him back to his Base on a flight, it's telling me it can't be done as the flight is too far away from the fight. Is there anyway I can get around this? Thanks Chael

I agree with the concept of this topic. But once again it seems to have been ravaged by the mma Tycoon forum circus

Caged Combat Rio is a good organisation. Rocky Marciano does a great job. But it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Managers take their fighters out of Rio organisation because they hear that Rio is dead. As a result of this; Rio stays dead. I hope CCR continues to build itself up though. Great organisation if you are a new manager with new fighters

CM: Hello once again to everybody at ICON Interviews; our guests just keep getting better and better. Last time we had 23 year old Welterweight phenomenon Yngve Stolt; we have a treat for you today. We have a three division champion! Fighting for Steel Penn – ICON and holding its 135lb, 145lb and 155lb belts; the number 2 Bantamweight in all of MMA Tycoon, Moses Ohchooto! http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/0/14632384294169.png CM: Moses Ohchooto; congratulations buddy, this is a fantastic achievement and you have made history, talk us through what it feels like to hold three belts and what this means to you? MO: Hey Chael; thank you so much for having me. Also for allowing my 3 boys into the room. Let me introduce you to them; first is Moses Jr. he is 5 as you can see he is holding the 55 strap. Then we have Mason; he is 3 and has the 45 strap. Then we got the little guy Mackey he is 2 and he just refuses to let go of the 35 strap. Man it’s just been surreal. Holding one belt is near impossible and I have managed to get 3. Aside from my 3 boys this is my greatest achievement ever. I am on cloud nine. I’m pleased that I could do this for me and my family, let’s not forget about Mello he has invested much time and money in me. He has never given up on me when he easily could have. CM: It’s an absolute pleasure to have you all; maybe those guys will follow in their father’s footsteps one day. Which belt is your favourite? MO: Favourite belt? I really don’t have a favourite but the 155 belt was the toughest one to get; as of course Chael you have seen. I’m proud of them all and also thanks to the Org for electing me into the HOF Yeah Baby!!! CM: Congratulations on the Hall Of Fame as well my friend. That was one hell of a war between you and Lamont. What was your game plan going in? And did anything at all surprise you about Lamont in that fight? He did seem to rally late on. MO: Well because of the weight difference we developed somewhat of a different training camp. A lot of weights and a lot of CT. I needed to get stronger to handle him, which as you seen really paid off. I was able to adapt my game plan really effectively with the added strength. I thought he would have kept the fight at distance more. Surprised at how many times he instigated the clinch. Really tough SOB!! Wow!! I landed over 140 significant strikes, cut him open in the 1st round and opened it up more in the second and 3rd. To the refs credit he didn’t stop the fight. Nothing worse than the Doc stopping a fight. Honestly I know the judges gave him the 4th round, but at no time was I ever phased or hurt by any of his shots. He missed a lot. He rallied and he made it a great battle man. Hats off to him. CM: Obviously fans love super fights and so does everybody; so now that you are the champion of three weight classes, does the fight on 25th June between Tallon and Tsoi at Evolution interest you? It is at your natural weight class after all. MO: Absolutely it does. Either one of those men I would fight in a hot minute. Personally I predict that Tsoi wins that match. Kinda funny you mention Viktor. Mello mentioned him to me just the other day. I was kinda getting excited about Donny Donowitz. I even called him out on Buzz. But after further thought a super fight against Viktor on the big Island. Holy cow man. Make it happen! Make it happen! CM: That’d be one hell of a fight! I think a lot of people saw that, obviously Mello called out Donny on your behalf; possibly the greatest Tycoon fighter of all time vs the first ever three division champion, that’d be one of the biggest fights ever surely? Do you have any word from Donny or Mihail on that? MO: Have not heard a thing from Donny’s camp. Actually think he is contemplating retirement. I see he is not signed with anyone. Heck he might already be in the Bahamas for all I know. The way I see it now I want to do everything I can do to help SP-Icon become one of the best Orgs in the World. The way to do that is to get Tsoi or Mallon or Donowitz to come to the Big Island to fight me in a super fight, and to see what SP-ICON and Moses Ohchooto are all about. CM: So you would like to fight all three of them? You are only 31 years old, you have plenty of time. Out of those three fighters which is the dream fight for you? Or would it be somebody else that we don’t know about yet? MO: Chael; You know I will fight anyone at any time. The dream fight would be Viktor though. He currently is the No.1 ranked 135ib fighter in the world. I’m the No.2 in the world I believe everybody would love to see that fight. We need to find a big Arena for that event. On the Big Island!! CM: You seem to going to all sorts of big places in your career; do you find it odd that at this stage, as a champion in 3 weight-classes you are not included in the P4P top 10 rankings? MO: I know there are some tough; tough men out there. I hold 3 belts in 3 different weight classes. I definitely should be in the top ten, more like the top 5. But that’s ok I’m gonna get there real soon. Real soon. CM: Well there are many who believe you should already be there. Last couple of questions now and then we’ll wrap this up. Have you received any backlash from any fighters at SP – ICON who have had to wait for their shot at you? Do you see anyone from within the organisation who stands out as somebody you should fight next? MO: I have not heard of any backlash in the Org itself. There have been others out there in the tycoon world who have been talking a bit. We have to keep this clean remember my boys are here. So we can save that conversation for another time as we have some great talent here. We have been talking a lot about super fights and this and that. Let’s not forget we got some tough tough dudes here. Pikku Cletus; Sean Eliah and many more, I’m assuming; and I actually want my next fight to be to defend the 135 belt against the winner of the Landry vs Richards fight on the 2nd of July. I’m not gonna hold up the division. So Cletus, Sean; you’ve heard it here first. It’s up to you two now. I won’t be able to attend the fight I will be back in New York training @Mello MMA shout out to Team Mello.!! Yeah Fellas see y’all soon. CM: Final question then; will you be finishing your career with SP-ICON, and look to help grow the organisation? Or is it fair to say that you may be somewhere else to look for bigger fights in the future? MO: As long as I hold a title with this Org I will be here. As long as the Org does its job in marketing our product and bring in the very best talent I will be here. I’m loyal to SP-ICON and I appreciate everything they have done for me. I’m always going to be looking for big fights. I have a mission and it’s started here; I’ve made history. My next chapter is to become the #1 P4P fighter in the world. CM: Moses; my friend it was a pleasure to have you on ICON Interviews as always, we wish you the best of luck in whatever your future holds; I’m sure you will be bringing us great fights as you always have done in the past! That’s gonna do it for this edition of ICON Interviews! See you all next time!
