It’s been a lot of months since the organization started and I just became CEO around December, then Ernie Porkchop sold the organization to Fat Boy a few weeks ago and they are merging the fighters into SPFT: UVT. So let’s celebrate this final event, which by the way is STACKED! Diego Kramer vs Kadian Aitkens – Welterweight division We’ll start on the welterweight division with 2 prospects coming originally from Ominslash Gauntlet. Kramer (4-0 MMA, 2-0 No Exit) is a natural born striker with some gifted knees to his opponents and he’ll face an overall balanced fighter in Aitkens (5-3 MMA, 1-0 No Exit) in what should be an interesting opening fight. Both guys are looking to leave here with a great win to make their careers develop even more and you can expect that the undefeated Kramer will stay that way with a mix of muay thai clinch and some dirty boxing techniques. Both guys have power in their hands, but the “Flying Knee” should have the edge when it’s standing. Aitkens might try to take it to the ground and Kramer will need to avoid that at all costs even though he’s a higher belt in BJJ. My expectations are Kramer by 2nd round TKO. Max Nobriga © vs Dan Hardly – Welterweight Championship The first of plenty title fights to determine the final champions of No Exit is at 170 lbs. Max Nobriga ( 20-13-1 MMA, 5-5-1 No Exit) won the title against Kim and held into it until now. Even though he lost 2 non-title fights, he’s been dominant at this division. Even though his first run at the organization was a disaster, he got back on track this time. Dan Hardly (30-20 MMA, 1-1 No Exit) is a veteran of this sport who had troubles with managers in his past. He used to wear a red Mohawk and go around as a punk, but this time “The Ancestor” decided to keep it natural and let his original hair and beard grow. He had a stint at lightweight in the organization, even fighting against former champion Kenny Gomi and losing it in the very end after being more dominant in the rest of the fight. This really is an even fight but Nobriga seems to be the favorite considering his size advantage against Hardly. Fred Lee vs Brutal Rapist – Heavyweight division The Heavyweights collide at this fight when Lee (35-21 MMA, 4-2 No Exit) faces Rapist (19-8 MMA, 2-3 No Exit). Lee is a monster at 228cm and weighting 288 pounds on fight night. Rapist will be way smaller in this fight and his last fights weren’t that good. Lee should be the favorite here, specially if this one stays standing. Rapist is a black belt and might find it as the way to become victorious. This one will probably be in favor of the Chinese. Melekh David vs Ilya Nazarkin – Bantamweight Championship This one is a rematch, folks! Takeshi Miike was the first and a dominant champion until David (11-6 MMA, 2-1 No Exit) showed up and took his belt. In his first defense he faced Nazarkin (21-8 MMA, 6-4 No Exit), a man who was defeated by Miike before, meaning that everyone thought David would win it. Both guys are black belts and Nazarkin got a submission last time but lost it to Miike later on. The champion decided to leave the organization and we’re having a rematch to decide the final 135lbs king. David is still the favorite but we can’t rule the Russian out, so this should be an interesting fight. Expect David to seek redemption and capture the belt for a final time. Gegard Zaromskis vs Mark Woleman – Lightweight division Have I told you that this card features a bunch of exciting and intriguing rematches? Well, this one is just another as Hall of Famer Zaromskis (23-7-1 MMA, 17-7 No Exit) tries to get revenge against Woleman (28-10-1 MMA, 4-0 No Exit) after their No Exit 142 fight. Zaromskis had a lot of rematches including an epic 4 fight rivalry against Kenny Gomi (2-2 for both guys) and he held the belt in 3 title reigns. Woleman came right from the bottom and wins against Lee, Shleifer, Lobe and Zaromskis got him right into title contention. If the organization kept going and he got a win in this rematch, he would probably fight for the title. Their fight was pretty even, but the jabs and late takedowns got Mark the victory. Expect him to try to implement it again and the former champion will try to stay standing and avoid that jab with counters. If Zaromskis can get his striking going, he might be able to get bragging rights this time. Perlito Calzada © vs Wandy Wandeco – Middleweight Championship Calzada (23-9 MMA, 11-4 No Exit) was supposed to be a dominant champion at No Exit. He had a lot of wins and just 2 losses in the organization and he captured the belt. When he got a chance of redemption in a title defense against Pete Patterson, who defeated him before, he was probably getting it in a very dominant fight but with just 3 seconds left, Patterson got the TKO victory with some ground & pound and became the new champion. He gave a third fight against Calzada right after and this time it was very close, but everything seemed to finally go in favor of “Bose” when with just 4 seconds left Patterson got a RNC and defended his belt. Calzada got 2 fight win streak and with the champion departure he faced Postiga for the belt at No Exit 143 and got it back. He now faces the first guy he fought after both epic fights against Patterson. In their fight, Calzada got a amazing 41 seconds TKO victory against Wandeco (15-11 MMA, 3-1 No Exit). Wandy does not want to repeat that result and with solid wins in other fights he wants to prove that this time it will go down a different way. Expect Calzada to win it again but not so fast as last time. Tim Taylor vs Malietoa Feti – Light Heavyweight Championship The fight is on hold after rumors of Taylor having a cut that won’t make him able to fight Feti for the vacant belt. That’s some unfortunate news but the event needs to move on. Patrick Mannelly vs Pluto Palhares – Welterweight division This fight between top prospects might determine who can reach the next level worldwide after this event. Mannelly (12-1 MMA, 3-0 No Exit) made a lot of noise in his fights, specially a incredible performance against former champion Ban-Ki Kim. He seems to improve everytime we see him fight and it won’t be different against Pluto Palhares (16-2 MMA, 0-0 No Exit). Pluto is a brazilian who fought all over the world and will try to get an impressive win to make a case for a big step in his career. He comes from the amazing Chris Carter camp and displays a huge amount of skills. Mannelly seems to be a future top 20 fighter in the division but Palhares has the potential to be one of the top guys in the world. He will defeat Mannelly in impressive fashion. Kenny Floor Jan © vs Kenny Gomi – Lightweight Championship If you’re looking for an amazing fight with a great amount of speed and footwork, this one is for you. Floor Jan (22-6 MMA, 1-1 No Exit) came into the organization already facing Gomi (30-14-1 MMA, 10-4 No Exit) for the belt at No Exit 131 and he dominated the champion with a 2nd round TKO. He then lost a non-title superfight against Timo Kotipelto, a top 5 in the division. Gomi got 2 big wins against Qing Kong and Rick Ross and is right back to fight for a belt he held before. Not only their faces and name look similar, but their skills is pretty even. The only exception would be Gomi’s black belt against Floor Jan’s brown belt. That might give a different approach to this fight and if you want to pick a winner, you might just throw a coin up in the air and whatever happens happens. Matt Dammon © vs Alfie Norks – Heavyweight Championship It’s time for the main event of the evening! Dammon (23-3 MMA, 10-0 No Exit) already faced Norks (25-9 MMA, 13-4 No Exit) twice before and after a close 1st fight a one sided 2nd fight, they’ll meet again to determine the final Heavyweight champion. Dammon is on his 2nd reign after vacating the belt long ago and pursuing other challenges. Norks then emerged as the top guy in the division and besides the 2 losses against his current opponent, he only lost to legendary Golden Glory and Logan Harter in a superfight. Norks can’t be counted out of this fight and I’m sure that Dammon won’t feel that way, specially with the KO power both guys have. The champion will probably try to pick Norks apart and then try to land a fight-ending blow. I believe he’ll be able to do that and definitely put himself amongst the best of the division worldwide. The rumor has it Dammon will challenge Don Marciano for a fight after this one. Let’s wait and see. And that’s all for this preview of No Exit 144 – The End. Don’t forget to watch it today and there are only a few tickets left for the event! DON’T MISS IT!
