Good luck to everyone tonight,

 

Last week’s idiom was “March, in like a lion, out like a lamb,” this week, we’ll use “April showers bring May flowers.” By this, we at SPFT mean that we will be showering you with incredible fights all through the month of April, simply so that we can bring you even better ones in May. Sounds like a pretty good deal, doesn’t it? This week the Super Heavyweights will be stealing the show, as they are headlining both the Main Event and Co-Main Event this week. Hopefully the cage can handle those four monsters fighting within its confines. First, let’s talk about some of the smaller fighters who will be brawling on the undercard.

 

Tommy McDonald has only won two fights in his nine fight SPFT career. Granted, one of those wins was against SPFT legend, El Guapo, however even that fight back in October was four fights ago, and was the last time he has won. At 34 years old, his best days may sadly be behind him. McDonald will be an excellent opponent to welcome SPFT newcomer, James Dooalot. Dooalot joins us with a current two fight losing streak, but with his immense skill set, it is just a matter of time before this 28 year old fighter turns that around and proves to be the skilled fighter he is. Watch out for the upset, however, as McDonald is a very experience fighter, and a slumping younger less experienced fighter might just be what the doctor ordered for his old legs.

 

If I were one of the announcers, I would be cursing the matchmakers at SPFT for the next match as Mahandry Andriamboavonjy takes on Michael Ehrmantraut, in what will be a horrible tongue twister. One would have thought they would have complained enough after the SPFT 85 meeting of these two to prevent this match up from happening again, but since the happiness of the announcers is not our concern, we bring you the rematch between these two. Both young fighters are currently suffering from three fight losing streaks, which is especially surprising in the case of Ehrmantraut, who had started his career 4-0, but has not been able to recover since his loss to Andriamboavoniy back in December when he was a rising star within the organization. Maybe the rematch will be enough for Ehrmantraut to get his career back on the right track.

Alexander Lansing, two fights off of his loss to Meat Loaf for the Featherweight championship, suffered another tough loss at SPFT 98 to Muuli Potku. This brought to the forefront the issue Lansing has when he doesn’t finish a fight, he usually loses. This is not an issue for his opponent, Kalash Nikov, however, as most of Nikov’s victories have been via decision. This points out an interesting subplot to this fight, will Lansing seek to finish the fight at all costs, knowing that most likely Nikov will win the favor of the judges? And if so, will Lansing be capable of doing so? Nikov has only been knocked out thrice and never been submitted.

GG Allin missed out on a huge opportunity at SPFT 95, when he failed to make it to his fight against Matt Lisser on time, word has it that it had something to do with the fact that he was attempting to change his name at the time. Now Lisser is the Super Heavyweight Champion, and Allin is fighting on the undercard. Allin is undoubtedly determined now to fight his way to the top of the division, and his first step will be to fight Jaako Parantainen. Parantainen was knocked out in his last fight against Silver Boo, but the BJJ Black Belt should never be underestimated. With his top level grappling skills, Parantainen is dangerous to any fighter, and will put forth an excellent challenge to Allin.

In our fifth fight, we will watch two of the oldest active fighters in the MMA world as Noah Cd, 37, will square off against Belin Billet, 35. Cd enters the fight on a two fight win streak, and will look to use his top level Muay Thai skills, which have carried him through fifty-five fights so far, to defeat Billet. Billet, himself a veteran of forty-seven fights, also has some incredible Muay Thai skills as well, and has a slightly more rounded game to back it up too. Since Billet is capable of winning the fight anywhere, Cd may need to watch out, as his winning streak may be in jeopardy.

For a thirty-five year old, Leopold Scotch has had a surprisingly low amount of fights, with only twenty fights experience. This is a shame, as Scotch is a top level exciting fighter, who never disappoints when he steps into the cage. He will also wish he had gained more experience in his youth when he steps into the cage with his next opponent. Muuli Potku is currently sporting a four fight win streak, and a 3-0 record in SPFT. With this fight, the young prospect stands a very good chance to earn himself a title shot considering how impressive he has been so far. However, if he loses, Scotch will likely earn that shot, and Potku will have to fight his way back up the rankings.

The Bantamweight division is currently very deep and being hotly contested by some very impressive talent. I have made it known before how much I am a fan of the small fighters, and the fight between Kevin Bishop and Grimly Fiendish will be another exciting one. Currently Bishop sits behind only Eriku Landstrimma, whom has beaten Bishop twice, on the list of top 135 pound fighters in SPFT. With this knowledge, the twenty-seven year old will likely fight his heart out in his attempt to reach the top of the division. Fiendish, on the other hand, despite currently sporting a two fight win streak, is a bit further down the list. I have heard Fiendish is getting a bit tired of the disrespect he has been receiving due to the fact that he is being basically ignored, and is seeking to change the mind of his doubters by knocking out Bishop.

Miggery Sow impressed the right people during his SPFT debut at SPFT 100 with his victory over Cale Carter. With that victory, the 30 year old Frenchman earned a shot against former champion, Randolph Turpin. Some cynical fans claim that this fight is simply a record builder for Turpin so that he can turn around and challenge for his title again. Those people are ignoring the impressive skills of the constant underdog, Sow. However, it is difficult even for an unbiased journalist to overlook the difference in potential between Sow and Turpin, but I still expect an impressive fight between the two.

Teijo Tarzan gets to show off to the world in his first SPFT fight, being in the Co-Main Event. However, hopefully nerves don’t get the best of him fighting on the highest stage, as his opponent, Bigfoot Silva is incredibly dangerous. One subplot to look for in this fight is the high likelihood it will end via knockout. Both fighters have won eighteen fights via knockout, and both have had suspect chins in their history. If I were to bet on how this fight will go, it will be a short battle where both fighters walk to the center of the cage and throw bombs until the other man falls. I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a better way to amp me up for the Main Event.

In Matt Lisser’s first title defense, he will battle with former champion, Gor Keyman. Considering no Super Heavyweight since Naoto Sugawara has held the title after winning it, this fight carries a lot of intrigue. With the top level fighters in our Super Heavyweight division, let’s not forget, Elroy Kleinschmidt is still lurking, as is the Hall of Famer, Willy Stoppers, Keyman is unlikely to get another title shot for a while if he is unable to close the deal against Lisser this time around. That being said, Lisser also runs the risk of not being able to challenge for the title in the near future should he lose, and he will look just like the rest of the fighters that have been in the revolving door of being the Super Heavyweight champion. With this pressure on both fighters, expect both to leave it all in the ring, battling to the final bell.

http://www.mmatycoon.com/images/posters/1369184352sp110.png

 

Kenshiro Kasumi v Lucas LaVey

 

Two well rounded strikers square off to start the card. These men match up very evenly. LaVey holds very slight advantages in muay thai as well as wrestling skill. He will also be the crowd favorite once the bell rings. That said, Kasumi has a submission victory and LaVey does not. Kasumi is also walking into the fight with a bit more confidence and will probably be the more aggressive fighter. Both men have proven they to have knockout power with a combined 22 knockouts. Don’t expect this one to go the distance.

 

 

 

 

Kalash Nikov v Kelsey Curtis

 

This fight will be an interesting matchup. Nikov is a solid striker and muay thai expert who likes to drag his opponents out into deep water, tire them out, and win convincingly by decision. Curtis is a supreme grappler, holding a red belt in Brazilian jiu jitzu, who likes to get opponents to the ground and end the fight early either with ground and pound or via submission. That said, he’s 1-4 in matches that go the distance. The longer this fight goes the more it will favor Nikov.

 

 

 

Vladimir Zenin v Jose Protacio Jawo

 

A somewhat one sided fight may be in the works here. Zenin holds an advantage in boxing, and is a BJJ black belt. He likes nothing more than to dirty box in close, get the fight to the ground, and get his opponent to tap out. He will also almost assuredly be the crowd favorite coming into the cage. Jawo has a slight advantage in muay thai and has shown repeatedly that he can go the distance. Over 60% of his wins have come by decision. Look for Jawo to try to wear Zenin down early, get the fight into the third round, and beat Zenin up late to pull out another decision.

 

 

 

 

Ryuu Tatsuya v Gabriel Kiptanui

 

Tatsuya gets a chance to put his critics to rest here. He’s been called one dimentional and over rated by some, and he will be at a large disadvantage on the ground against Kiptanui. That said Tatsuya has a lot of knock out power, nearly two thirds of his wins are by knock out, and he has a slight advantage in muay thai. Tatsuya can end things with one heavy handed shot, but don’t expect him to last long if the fight goes to the ground. Kiptanui has a black belt and an eagerness to use it.

 

 

 

Nik Volkov v Samuraimo Rassi

 

Volkov is an enigma. He holds a black belt but only has three submission wins. He has strength, but only four knock outs. 65% of his wins have come via judges’ decision. He simply drags his opponents down to the mat, wears them down, and dominates in terms of damage output and position. Rassi is the superior striker with a large advantage in muay thai and a small advantage in wrestling. Will that wrestling advantage be enough to keep the fight standing? It should be an interesting fight to watch.

 

 

 

 

Nisse Lind v Jamie Gillis

 

The second half of the card gets underway with two promising strikers. Lind is 6-0 with all of his victories coming via knock out. Gillis is a seasoned veteran who has nearly three quarters of his victories coming via KO. Don’t expect this fight to last long! Lind has a better muay thai game, but is suffering from a deficiency in jiu jitzu. Look for Gillis to take energy from a very supportive crowd and try for a ground and pound victory.

 

 

 

 

Nero Aurelius v Hal Jordan

 

Fight seven on the card may be the best one yet. Two solid 185 pound fighters square off and they are extremely close in terms of skill. The only real advantage is in morale. Aurelius definitely has more momentum coming into the fight and that will probably translate into him being the more aggressive fighter. Both of these men have shown to be able hurt and finish an opponent with strikes, but to also have the gas and savvy to take a decision. Don’t expect this fight to hit the mat.

 

 

 

 

Matt Lisser v Christiano Smokeleaf

 

This superheavyweight match is between two title contenders with etreme skill. Smokeleaf is very slightly outclassed in the striking department but makes up for it with a black belt in jiu jitzu. Both men come in with ten knock outs and solid jaws. This fight should be action packed and all three rounds should be close. If Smokeleaf can get Lisser onto his back, he can easily pick up a tap out victory, but if it stay standing Lisser can definitely take it.

 

 

 

 

Ansgar Axelsson v A J Hearts

 

The co-main event of the evening pits two of the top 50 fighters in the world at the light heavyweight division. Axelsson is the better striker, particularly with his muay thai. Hearts has the better ground game, particularly in jiu jitzu. That said, neither man has a submission victory and both look to load up a big punch and end the fight early. Twenty five of their combined 34 wins are by KO, and both have really good chins. This one may be a bloodbath.

 

 

 

 

Gor Keyman v Willy Stoppers

 

The Super Heavyweight title is on the line once again between these two brawlers, but this time the roles are reversed. Last time it was Keyman taking the belt thanks to a head kick that stopped Stoppers. One big shot will most likely end this fight as well, but the two men are extremely close in terms of skill. This one is definitely up for grabs and don’t be surprised if Stoppers takes back what he thinks is still rightfully his.
