skull Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 I think Scooby meant even if he held a KT tourney in his org (if there was no official end of season KT tourney), the top KT fighters would still enter the official end of season tourney and face regular MMA fighters which would probably end in a loss if they are pure KT build. If a KT fighter never fights a MMA fight then his MMA ranking and hype will never go up, only his KT rank and hype as well as overall popularity go up so most likely all of the KT fighters would be ranked way way too low in the Island MMA p4p rankings to be entered into the end of the season tournaments 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbsh209 Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/13/13w6.jpg Rocco "RJ" Newton Rocco was drawn into the world of fighting in the hopes of achieving fame like his cousin Christopher. Having had no success in athletics in his life, he hopes to have some genetic luck and be talented at fighting. His goal in life is to be famous, and he believes the gateway to that is MMA.

Guest Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Ladies and gentlemen, hide your daughters and/or pringles cans and rubber gloves because I am proud to introduce, for Season 3 of The Island: http://mmatycoon.com/gallery/34/34w6.jpg Randy "Pan" Goatboy As always, Goatboy is here to please you. Like the pleasant rocking of public transport against your slightly too tight pants, like the flash of a naked body in the apartment across the way's window, like finding out via popup that there are horny ugly chicks AND grandmothers in your local area: Goatboy is here to exhilirate, titilate and eviscerate, not necessarily in that order. So grab your sacks, touch your toes and cough in jubilation and violation because it's "Pan" time across this small Island nation! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 My first try at the Island. Anyone have any advice for someone relatively new at the island? Like golf, play it as it lies. It's a 6 month real time competition and it is completely self contained. My personal recommendation is to go with a 25 year old so get the maximum points for these 6 months and focus on some key strengths. No one has time to build a beautifully rounded fighter so everyone will have weaknesses and strengths, stick to yours. It is also worth spending a couple of weeks training on the cheap to get some money and also to allow some competition/product to emerge in the gyms and nutrition shops. It's all about the end of season champion's league tournament so build up for that and play to your strengths. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Little is known about Sam "The Celtic Kid" at this time but rumour has it his management will be providing an official press release soon. Get this kid signed up if you wanna have the greatest fighter in the history of The Island. PS - how do I do The Island? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanJuan Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Odd - I have a QFC fight booked tomorrow for someone with a new (as of yesterday) free account, and only four island fighters, all aged 25. Coincidence, or tomfoolery? Hopefully the former. Also I thought it strange that they have a historic record of 1-1, but no fighters previously. Glitch? Anyhow, not looking to start anything this early, but I remember there were some shenanigans last season with multi-accounting, especially in a certain org. Hoping this isn't a sign of that - maybe I'm overthinking it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbsh209 Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Island Fighter Journal Rocco "RJ" Newton http://mmatycoon.com/gallery/13/13w6.jpg Rocco bought his ticket to the Island on the hopes of gaining fame and fortune. Seeing as he is a first cousin to Christopher Newton, he was offered managerial services of famed manager Low Key. However, seeing as Low Key manages out of Montreal, he was told to get in touch with Low Key's Island representatives, who immediately worked on getting Rocco his first fight. After short-lived negotiations, the representatives were able to match Rocco with Kacper Tak, a debuting fighter from Panama. Rocco did a bit of training with Christopher prior to his arrival to the Island, and believed that the training would be sufficient for his first fight. Link to the fight Rocco was extremely confident going into the fight, and the confidence showed off as he decisively beat, but did not finish, the game Tak. Highlights of last fight Newton scores with a hook to the body.
