Tycooner Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Brief News Update The Island Season 4, 265 lbs., Round 1 What a round it was WOW! With every fight ending in Round one except two fights. All I can say is the fans got their money's worth. Not one fight went to the judges 9 Submission, 12 TKO's and 10 big KO's! Now that’s what I call fighting. Round one did have a few shockers none bigger than the Island's former pound for pound kingpin Sephiroth Jenova! Jenova was only able to land one strike in two rounds.The number #2 seed was took out by Donatello Flaminio the #63 seed. That has got to be the biggest upset in the history of the of the island tournament! Performance of the night Donatello Flaminio 4-2-0 http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/37/37w2.jpg For his Rd 2 Submission (Americana) of Sephiroth Jenova 13-2-0 J.J Tycooner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itakebrides Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Looks very exciting this year .petty my island fighter sucked and got sacked half way through the season.A good few shocks have to say the tournament board is very well set up .Grant fighter losing was a big shock .As the old island saying saying goes The pre tournament wins don't mean shit unless you win on the big stage /people only remember tournament winners.Maybe next reason restrict the number of divisions so they be a decent pool for the end of year tournament . Also i notice a lot of the big name managers or still scare to compete on the island which is a shame 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydebankblitz Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Bantamweight: Nothing unexpected at all. Two solid fights left but you have to predict Ove Vs Piston for the final. Featherweight: Big surprise with Yuta Wakabayashi going on early. Darth Mauler, Count Chocula, Hannu Haapana and Patrick Seery remain. Lightweight: Hugo Jiminez has beat Fred Aslop and IB Strokin, solid run so far. Wilson Willis Vs Glorious Superior still on track. Welterweight: WHAT?!?!? Chevie Case keeps General Tso's Island undefeated legacy alive. Fernardu Palmier submitted in the first round, making his record move to 17-1. Crazy. We saw some good fights out this round at 170 but the main players are still in, Palmier excluded. Middleweight: Nothing really surprising but some good fighters gone. Light Heavyweight: Number 1 seed Gabriel Dahl out, but Roberto Boucher is a solid fighter regardless. Lot of fantastic records still in this division but we lost some really good fighters such as Dahl, Shoei Brazi and Emil Cioran. Heavyweight: Couple of good fights dropped but all the favourites winning. Donatello Flaminio is still in there, I love this guy! His manager's not even active haha. Super Heavyweight: Paulo Lazaro might not have had the best Island season, but he's in the semi finals. His brother won the Heavyweight tournament last year, can Lazaro keep the family tradition going strong? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingEpicity Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Nice win for Count ....

clydebankblitz Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Tweaked my strategy for Razval a little bit and it paid off big time. I've seen quite a good GnP lose to fellow GnP guys cause they struggle off their back so I wanted to make sure I was landing some punches, trying to counter the takedowns and maybe catching him off guard with the clinch and taking him down from there. Big fights from this point on. Bit disappointed Razval couldnt be the one to dethrone Palmier but Case is the next best fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Im noticing the fights are whole fight scoring system rather than 10 point must. Is that normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reggie Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Vazquez loses after he got taken down inside the first minute despite having exceptional TDD, me predicting 100% takedowns & having him high counter. the fuck.

clydebankblitz Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Got everything up to Welterweight KT done so far. That means I've got about 3 and a half hours to do the remaining 19 fights. I'm probably going to be away for the next hour so more like 2 and a half (plus Razal's sliders).

PaleMan Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 you better start from 265+, who cares about midgets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBennet Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Start from the middle. WW, MW and LHW divisions were the most competitive this season, I think (emphasis on LHW). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydebankblitz Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Got MW done. Wolf messaged me asking if I wanted him to do LHW and HW but I wasn't on and didn't get the message until now so I don't know if he's still around and can do it in the next hour and 20 minutes. I'll do SHW now anyways and if I don't hear back from him I'll work on something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydebankblitz Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Got everything except LHW and HW done. I'll give it 5 minutes until the turn of the hour and start work on LHW if I dont hear back from Wolf. Really, if he's working on something I have a 50/50 shot of picking the wrong weight class but Max said LHW is important so I'll go for it.

clydebankblitz Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 ROUND 3 ROUND UP BANTAMWEIGHT: Arturo Alvarado puts a spanner in the decider between Ove and Piston with a submission with just seconds to go despite being down on the cards. Wow. FEATHERWEIGHT: Another massive favourite down. An absolutely crazy fight which Darth Mauler appeared to be up on two score cards after the second round, rocking Chocula. Count came back in the third to rock Mauler, and it went to the decision. Count took it and the crowd was split. Insane fight. Other 3 favourites won. LIGHTWEIGHT: Another nuts fight, similar to Alvarado / Piston but with the underdog dominating the fight. Hugo Jimenez was battering Wilson Wills, but Wills came back with a final round armbar to keep the final with Glorious Superior on. WELTERWEIGHT: All 4 favourites won, but Razval was so close to being stopped against Zadimus Delacroix. Keto Belle was the only one who outright dominated their fight. Great round of action. Why are we still waiting for the others? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
