Johnny Knuckles here with an WCFC exclusive. Lost in the massive success that was CFC 441 is the fate of light heavyweight champion, and CFC #1 ranked fighter, Antonio Mauricio DeSilva. After beating #1 contender, PJ Proudhon, and successfully defending the title he won at CFC437, DeSilva has vanished and taken his awesome looking belt with him. Unsubstantiated rumors indicate that there may be contract troubles, while others say that the now-40 year old is looking to spend more time with his family. Stay tuned to WCFC, we'll carry the latest from this, and more.

Johnny Knuckles here with an WCFC exclusive. Lost in the massive success that was CFC 441 is the fate of light heavyweight champion, and CFC #1 ranked fighter, Antonio Mauricio DeSilva. After beating #1 contender, PJ Proudhon, and successfully defending the title he won at CFC437, DeSilva has vanished and taken his awesome looking belt with him. Unsubstantiated rumors indicate that there may be contract troubles, while others say that the now-40 year old is looking to spend more time with his family. Stay tuned to WCFC, we'll carry the latest from this, and more.

We offered him 114 million dollars* in absolutely very real money, none of that animal crackers with the lion heads missing jazz either. We received no response.

I even promised not to laugh at the pre-fight tantrums he throws when he isn't allowed enough time for his male assistant to spray him from top to bottom with glitter sheen. But still, no response. 

Then we received this list of demands from his lawyer, who looks a lot like the glitter spray assistant, but with more makeup and a skirt.

 

The list:

1) Get rid of the those scantily clad card girls. Eew.

2) All title belts must be bedazzled. Screw it - everything gets bedazzled. 

3) Make the 265+ division into a Turkish oil wrestling league. Make participation mandatory.

4) Fight announcers can only be Elton John, Little Nas X, or CFC middleweight Jun Liu.

5) Booty shorts.

 

Some people may think that All Male Dancers' demands are over the top-sassy and unreasonable, but AMD, if you're out there listening...come back home, girl!! I don't think we can survive without you!! We'll even let you wear those nipple rings with the dangling chain and tassels you always campaigned to wear during your pillow fights.

Welterweight Championship

170 lbs Ceaser El Toro Jr vs Ivan Andrianov

Fresh off his title win at CFC 437, "The Drizzle" Ceaser El Toro Jr climbed into the ring in his first defense against Ivan "Snurri" Andrianov. Andrianov was making his CFC debut and hadn’t lost since July. El Toro Jr’s new, relaxed persona didn’t translate to the ring and he bolted out of the gate, gaining a clinch early and pummeling Andrianov with some heavy inside shots. A cut midway through the first raised some eyebrows in the challenger’s corner, but they were able to work on it between rounds and it became a non-factor. Beautiful work by the cut man. Things settled down over the next two rounds as both fighters looked to impose their gameplans. Andrianov won a close second round and El Toro pulled out the third. The fourth was all El Toro Jr, who allowed the challenger to get in close and worked him over with some nasty looking body shots. Andrianov knew he needed to pull out something special in the fifth to earn the win, but El Toro Jr wouldn’t allow it. Leg kicks kept Andrianov honest and he was too wild by the end to land anything worthwhile. Great fight by both men. Result: Still Welterweight Champion, Ceaser El Toro Jr  by Decision (Unanimous)

Co-Main Event

265 lbs Solomon Nao vs Thiago Araujo

Thiago Araujo retired Bubba Jones at CFC 438 and was looking for continued CFC success against newcomer and wittingly-named Solomon "Apocalypse" Nao. The former #1 heavyweight KT in the world, Nao waddled into the ring on his absurdly large legs and showed some surprisingly good footwork in avoiding Araujo’s shots early. It didn’t last though, as Araujo was able to take Nao to the mat, spending the rest of the first round on his back, repeatedly looking for an armbar submission. Nao said no, the crowd booed, but Araujo took the first round on the back of that aggressiveness. The second round was more of the same. An early takedown by Araujo had Nao playing defense throughout the round and he played it well, allowing Araujo no room to manoeuvre.  Even at one apiece heading into the third, Araujo tried again to take Nao to the mat early, but Nao was able to avoid the first four attempts. On the fifth, he stepped to the side and cracked Araujo with a huge right hand, sending him to the mat. Nao allowed him to get back up and did his best Roadhouse impression, knocking Araujo out with those tree trunks. Result: Solomon Nao by KO

Undercard

185 lbs Andor Kovacs vs Joao Andrade

CFC newcomer Andor Kovacs is undefeated in MMA under manager, Paul Priest. Nothing fancy, nothing flashy, just getting the job done. He took it to Joao "A Maldição" Andrade and scored a surprisingly easy victory. After cutting Andrade with a fantastic one-two combo at the three minute mark, the two fighters stayed out of range and tried to exchange shots. That didn’t sit well with Kovacs, who rage-rushed Andrade throwing wild punches like a grade-school nerd finally getting his hands on the bully. Result: Andor Kovacs by TKO

170 lbs Avraam Papadopoulos vs Settakian Fett

Cairo’s Avraam Papadopoulos has seen better days. Once ranked 5th overall in MMA, the 38 year-old’s last twelve fights have gone the distance and the results have been mixed. Settakian Fett couldn’t have cared less. He won the welterweight championship at CFC 435A, only to lose it in his first defence at CFC 437. It was an odd stand-up fight between these two for the full three rounds; Papadopoulos was clearly the aggressor, throwing at liberty and hoping to land a knockout blow. It didn’t happen, but he was the busier of the two and won easily on all cards. Fett, who had been working on his takedowns leading up to this fight, was happy with sitting back and letting the fight come to him. He threw nothing but combos. Manager Alexander Biro won’t be happy with that. Result: Avraam Papadopoulos by Decision (Unanimous)

265 lbs Professor Xe vs Brent Boston

Two more CFC newcomers, Professor Xe against "Bostons" Brent Boston. Did you know that “Bostons” Brent Boston was from Boston? Xe improved his record to 19-6 with this one, knocking Boston out later into round 2. It was a toss up whether Xe would make it through the first round though. Boston hit him with a stiff left very early in the fight, cutting him above the eye. Like the smart fighter he is, Boston isolated the injury, landing many more shots until the blood flowed freely over Xe’s eye. The ringside doctor took a long look and decided against stopping the fight, allowing Xe to fight back, knocking Boston down with a vicious combination before the first bell had rung. Both fighters, bloody and bruised, came out in the second and continued their brutal ways. Xe changed things up 90 seconds in, catching Boston flat-footed and driving him to the mat. A little later, and it was all over after the ref jumped in to save Boston from more GNP. Result: Professor Xe by TKO

185 lbs Jamie Bounty vs Edwin Lucan

Two experienced old farts with vastly different records. Jamie Bounty came in with a 39-16 record against 12-19 Edwin "The Baron" Lucan. Lucan was also winless in five fights, getting knocked out in each along the way. This fight was no different. Bounty dropped and cut Lucan in the first seconds of the fight, but couldn’t finish it right away. Lucan fought back briefly, landing his own right that cut Bounty and the two then held onto each other for dear life while recovering. Bounty cut loose around the three minute mark, crushing Lucan’s nose with right cross, sending him crumpling to the canvas. You have to feel for Edwin Lucan, he’s taken some brutal beatings lately. Result: Jamie Bounty by TKO.

205 lbs Ezekiel Marley vs Shogun Silva

I’ve bet on Ezekiel Marley in his GAMMA days, only to be disappointed after he suffered three losses in a row. His new manager, Dakota Thibodeaux promised changes and he delivered in Marley’s CFC debut. Shogun Silva played the part of a Street Fighter character, getting knocked off his feet with a no-doubt-about-it uppercut. Ugly loss for Silva, we hope he recovers well. Result:  Ezekiel Marley by KO.

185 lbs Holden Gracie vs Jaheim Reid

Moving up the middleweight rankings, Holden Gracie scored his third straight CFC win with a first round TKO of Jaheim "Junior" Reid. Reid tried to mix it up, but could do nothing against the younger opponent on his way to a fourth straight loss. He got cut early and suffered a three-punch combination that sent him to the canvas for good. Result: Holden Gracie by TKO.

185 lbs Jun Liu vs Marian Balkon

Handsome … or sexy … Jun "205 Queen" Liu enjoyed her first CFC win in her debut with a three round unanimous decision against Marian Balkon. Balkon had quantity, throwing over a hundred strikes, but the quality was lacking. Liu was far less active, but more accurate and the judges decided it was the way to go. Result: Jun Liu by Decision (Unanimous)

185 lbs Shane Murphy vs Marcos Martinez

Another middleweight clash had Shane Murphy against Marcos Martinez. That sentence took longer to type than the fight lasted. Result: Shane Murphy by KO

For the Lightweight Championship

155 lbs Roy Whitaker vs Humors Lacplesis

Latvian’s all over the world cried bitter tears into their Rīgas Melnais balzams as national hero, Humors "Mug Crusher" Lacplesis, failed in his lightweight title defence against Roy "SweetPea" Whitaker. Whitaker, a Pensacola native, earned his title shot by soundly defeating Barnabas Ungar at CFC 439. Lacplesis welcomed him to Main Event with a swift kick to the nuts, sending Whitaker to the canvas and drawing groans from the men in attendance. His penis swollen like it was never meant to be, Whitaker got up and was nearly toppled again a minute later with a hard, and this time legal, leg kick. Lacplesis hesitated a half second too long and Whitaker bounced back to control the final three minutes of the round. The second and third rounds belonged to Lacplesis as adrenaline wore off and the fighters settled down into their game-plans. For the champion, it was to slow Whitaker down with a combination of leg kicks and body shots. Whitaker landed some great shots of his own, but he was getting winded and a little wary after numerous hooks to the body. Heading into the controversial fourth round, it was the champ up 2-1 on all cards. The fight changed a little bit the last two rounds as Lacplesis was able to initiate a succession of clinches, forcing both fighters to find their spots in close. Neither man was truly successful in the clinch, but Whitaker was more forceful in breaking it up when he wanted too. Was that the deciding factor? The fight went the full five rounds and the fighters left it in the hands of the judges. Four of the five rounds were unanimous and were split by challenger and champion. Only the fourth round was judged differently; two of the judges saw it one way, one judge saw it the other. Result: New Lightweight Champion, Roy Whitaker by Decision (Split)

 

Co-Main Event

155 lbs Akaro Horiguchi vs Tyler Wrexham

Former lightweight champion, Akaro "Kid Lightning" Horiguchi, will get another shot at the 155 lb belt after slipping by Tyler "T-Rex" Wrexham. In a what-could-have-been moment, Wrexham wrecked Horiguchi in the first minute of the fight, landing a beautiful combo that knocked him to the ground, bleeding from an ugly cut. Horiguchi somehow held on and even managed some offense of his own while he lay on his back, counting the circling birds over his head. He took a couple of deep breaths in his corner after the first bell and recovered enough to win the second round easily. Smart clinch defence after the second round allowed Horiguchi to avoid the worst of Wrexham’s devastating knees and that was enough for two of the judges to award him the round and the win. Result: Akaro Horiguchi by Decision (Split)

 

Undercard

145 lbs Diogo Jimenez vs Tommy Walcott

Diogo “Don’t Call me Diego” Jimenez got submitted in his CFC debut and vowed to not make the same mistake against "Gypsy" Tommy Walcott in this important featherweight battle. Walcott, in his first CFC fight, wanted to keep the fight in the clinch where he could put his weight advantage to good use. Jimenez had other ideas and the two battled for position for much of the fight. There wasn’t much to distinguish the two; a lot of Muay Thai striking by Walcott which Jimenez blocked or avoided followed by brief periods of decent stand-up fighting. Jimenez was not only the busier of the two, he was also more accurate. All three judges agreed. Result: Diogo Jimenez  by Decision (Unanimous)

170 lbs Johannes Tulikoura vs Cory McDonnell

That’s three in a row for Johannes Tulikoura. Randy Orton with fire balls for hands didn’t need the fireballs, but he made good use of the hands against Cory "Give em Hell" McDonnell. Even though the fight went the distance, it was a one-sided and easy victory by Tulikoura. He stuffed all-but-one take down attempt by the brown belted McDonnell, and added a good mixed arsenal of kicks and punches. McDonnell couldn’t get near, the stiff leg kicks negated his speed advantage, and Tulikoura cruised to victory. Result: Johannes Tulikoura by Decision (Unanimous)

135 lbs Chester Drawers vs Dingleberry Jones

I’m a sucker for clever names and Chester Drawers is almost that. He pushed himself into challenger position in the competitive bantamweight division with a very quick submission win over Dingleberry Jones. Jones had the right game-plan, using his great leg kicks to keep Drawers away, but it didn’t last. Drawers ducked under the body shot by Jones and tossed him to the mat. Working feverishly, Drawers worked himself onto Jones’ back and choked the life out of him. Result: Chester Drawers by Submission (RNC)

135 lbs Nuri Jafar vs Leo Vuce

Two bantamweights a little farther down the totem poll, Nuri Jafar and Leo "Master of Puppets" Vuce  fought a tough three round fight. Leo Vuce falls to 17-16 (1-1 in CFC) after being unable to execute his game-plan. Poor take-down completion led to missed groundwork points, a spot where Vuce seemed to have the advantage. Jafar did nothing fancy, just steadily scored in all phases of the fight and came away with the win. Result: Nuri Jafar by Decision (Unanimous)

145 lbs Anthon Van Der Dusse vs Long Schlong

Anthon Van Der Dusse’s beard is awesome! His record? Not so much. He improves to 15-23 after a surprising first round knockout of opponent, Long Schlong. I don’t think anyone expected Schlong to lose, let alone so easily. He got caught on his heels and taken down to the mat early in the first. He didn’t seem to mind, working hard from the bottom and trying to catch Van Der Dusse in a guillotine. Van Der Dusse successfully fought off five sub attempts and then started pounding Schlong’s face into the mat. Not pretty. Result: Anthon Van Der Dusse by TKO (Strikes)

155 lbs The Royal Savage vs Elay Arson

Manager Meyer Lansky’s newest fighter, The Royal Savage made quick work of Elay Arson. Savage shook off some good punches by Arson, then countered a body shot into a knockdown. Savage popped right back up, but got caught again with the next strike which sent him spiralling into sleepy-time land. Result: The Royal Savage by KO (Punch)

185 lbs Wilky Pierre vs Oleg Liguy

Haitian Wilky "Thunder" Pierre beat up old man Oleg "Easy B" Liguy in 30 seconds, staying undefeated in five fights under manager Stewie Griffin. Liguy’s morale is at an all-time low after failing to get anything done against Pierre. Clinch, Take-down, Triangle Choke, Tap. Result: Wilky Pierre by Submission (Triangle Choke)

135 lbs Sun Chang vs Doesnt Matter

The name says it all. Doesnt "Really" Matter showed up, but didn’t care, in a robotic loss to Sun "Huy" Chang. Chang won, but needs to do something about his clothes; he’s been wearing the same Sportivite clothing since May and he stinks. Result: Sun Chang by Decision (Unanimous)

For the Heavyweight Championship

265 lbs More IsMore (-170) (32-11, 2-1) v Felix Inarritu (+138) (31-14, 1-0)

The first and reigning Heavyweight champion of the new CFC era is no more. More "The Hungarian Giant" IsMore lost in his second title defence to "El Dragon" Felix Inarritu halfway through the first round. Inarritu left no doubt from the start, dodging some wild punches from IsMore and countering with a plethora of strikes, landing 14 before the final sequence of events. IsMore blocked a hook, but didn’t see the follow-up right hand which sent him crashing to the floor. The challenger allowed him to stand, a risky move given IsMore’s pedigree, but knocked him out with the next punch. Hopefully IsMore will be okay because it was nasty. Result: New Heavyweight Champion, Felix Inarritu by KO

145 lbs Lemmy Bang (-122) (11-3, 1-0) v Justin Case (+100) (12-6, 0-1)

I don’t like Justin Case, I love him. His stoic portrait, resplendent in RCMP red with a handsome and regal beaver in his arms, brings me to tears every time. So it breaks my cold Canadian heart to see him lose his first CFC fight against Lemmy Bang. Bang is undefeated under new manager, Pablo Spezziale, and used everything in his ample bag to pull out the decision. It was a very active first round with both fighters throwing many hard strikes with little regard to defence. Bang came out on top and carried the momentum into the second round. The fight slowed down a bit as both men decided a toe-to-toe fight wasn’t in their long-term health’s best interest. A combo in-tight late in the second cut Case, but his corner was able to patch it up quickly and it ended up being a non-factor. Down 2-0 on the cards, Case came out more aggressive in the third, breaking an early clinch and letting it all hang out. It was enough to win the round, but not the fight. Lemmy Bang was more accurate standing up, and aggressive in the clinch. Result: Lemmy Bang by Unanimous Decision

 

 

Undercard

155 lbs Karol Orlowski (-186) (15-5, 0-2) v Tom Rivers (+150) (29-16, 2-0)

According to some Montreal-based bookies, Tom Rivers was the underdog coming into this fight, but he improved his CFC record to 2-0 after a tough battle with Poland’s Karol "Eagle" Orlowski. Lots of first round action, but little substance as the two fighters pawed and looked for openings. Better defence by The Eagle gives him the first round. The second was much of the same, great stand-up action by both fighters, much to the appreciation of the 92,387 in attendance. Rivers took the round with some late clinch work. Not much changed in the final round; Rivers was steady, avoiding most of the major blows as Orlowski picked up the pace. Rivers survived a couple of late uppercuts and came out with the win. Result: Tom Rivers by Unanimous Decision.

 

 

155 lbs Veikko Keskinen (16-15, 1-1) v James Smith (29-19, 2-0)

Not a good night for Veikko "Peikko" Keskinen. He falls to 1-1 in the new CFC after suffering a first round TKO. James Smith improves to 2-0, making it look easier than it actually was. Keskinen was very aggressive, landing multiple shots early, but lunged too far at the two-minute mark, giving Smith a nice opening. He didn’t miss, rocking Keskinen with a nice right counter and following up with a huge left which sent the already-wobbly Keskinen stumbling backwards. The ref jumped in before more damage could be done. Result: James Smith by TKO

 

 

135 lbs Moganesh Jain (20-10-1, 1-0) v Ono Kuronoa (10-13, 0-1)

CFC debuts in the bantamweight division. Moganesh "The Monkey God" Jain and Ono Kuronoa fought hard for three rounds, and it was Jain who came out on top. Not much separated the two fighters in the first two rounds as both tried to assert their game plans on the other. A frustrated Kuronoa, not able to grab hold of the wiggling Jain, lashed out and kicked him square in the nuts. Jain went down hard in incredible pain, but managed to get back to his corner to fight the third round. An entertaining third round, early brawling followed by some decent groundwork. Both tried to lock their respective submissions in, but no doing. Result: Moganesh Jain by Unanimous Decision

 

205 lbs Luther Jackson (33-22, 1-1) v Tomomisan Tsuruta (20-13-1, 1-0)

After a long Grunge career, Tomomisan "Jumbo" Tsuruta joined CFC and immediately put the light heavyweight division on notice. "Submission Master" Luther Jackson was a disgusting mess by the end of this fight, getting cut early in the first, a head wound his corner just couldn’t get taken care of. It wasn’t what stopped the fight, but it sure distracted him. The usually efficient Jackson missed twenty takedowns and was only able to attempt one submission before Tsuruta planted him on his ass for good. Result: Tomomisan Tsuruta by KO

 

170 lbs Tevin Felix (13-8, 0-1) v Cathail Murphy (8-13, 1-0)

Some fans cringed when seeing this matchup; Tevin Felix, winless in three vs Murphy, winless in five. And we’ll be honest, it wasn’t pretty to watch at times, but it wasn’t the calamity that some expected.  Felix jumped Murphy right away, taking him down to the canvas and working away at the ground and pound. Most missed, but the thudding on the mat was impressive. Murphy got cut in the early seconds of the second round and smartly took the fight to the mat to try and protect it from further damage. Controlling from the top, the judges gave him the second round. The third was a mixture of the first two, with Felix gaining the upperhand early. Murphy managed to escape from Felix’s grasp and slowly fought his way to victory. Result: Cathail Murphy by Unanimous Decision

155 lbs Jeff Baker (12-11, 1-0) v Steven Petersen (17-15, 0-2)

Nothing looks better than a nasty ol’ head kick. Baker supplied us with it at 51 seconds of third round, a beast of a head kick that earned him the KO of the night. Steven Peterson, falling to 0-2 in his CFC career, survived a first round cut and a late-second round rocking before finally succumbing to the onslaught. Result: Jeff Baker by KO.

 

155 lbs Brando Reigns (20-19, 0-3) v Cyber Bully (20-17-1, 1-1)

Brando "The Tragedy" Reigns lost his third CFC fight in a row, a three round decision against 1-1 Cyber Bully. The majority of the fight was spent on the mat where Reigns supplied zero offence against Bully’s accurate ground and pound. It was an easy decision by the judges; the exceptional wrestling skills from Bully didn’t give Reigns a chance. Result: Cyber Bully by Unanimous Decision

 

170 lbs Quinoa Smiff (20-19, 0-1) v Ken Vrjalya (1-2, 1-1)

I hate quinoa. Not the person, the food. Ken Vrjalya wins his very first MMA fight, making Smiff tap halfway through the first. A less than sportsmanlike Smiff suggested post-fight that Vrjalya was on steroids, something the CFC said it won’t be looking into. Result: Ken Vrjalya by Submission

This station would like to take the time to apologize, formally and on the air, to the Mayor for reporting that he was Jack the Ripper. The infamous serial killer has, in fact, been dead for quite a long time, a fact that WCFC’s investigation team did not learn of until the Mayor’s trial. Again, our sincere apologies for the error and I hope we can all remain friends. Speaking of friends, our good friend Johnny Knuckles is at the sports desk with the latest MMA news. Johnny?

 

Thanks Reggie. No titles, no problems for the Canadian Fighting Championship at CFC 445 in Tokyo. Two of the company’s top middleweights will be squaring off in the Main Event on December 19 for a chance at becoming the #1 contender. Captain "Coach" Gonza lost his first CFC fight in a title shot against Wilfredo Wild, a fight in which he was dominated from start to third round knockout. Kappa Knox won his CFC debut at CFC 439, a brutal second round knockout of Mad Dog Malone. Virtually identical in skillset, this one will come down to the game plan and who can execute it. CFC’s Director of Training Science says there is a 70% chance of a knockout. Stay tuned to WCFC for all your Canadian Fighting Championship news.

185 lbs Captain Gonza (31-17, 0-2) (+135) v Kappa Knox (-167) (20-13-1, 2-0)

Like my sex life, there was a lot of anticipation and it didn’t last long. Kappa Knox improves to 2-0 in his CFC career with an easy first round knockout of Captain "Coach" Gonza. Gonza was the aggressor from the bell, throwing an early head kick, followed by a takedown. Knox sat back and avoided most of the damage, waiting for a chance to counter. Gonza landed his only successful takedown at the two-minute mark, hoping to change things up, but immediately stood back up. A puzzling move given the amount of energy Gonza used to get into that position. Credit to Knox for imposing the changes, his defence was spot-on and forced Gonza into an uncomfortable position. He countered a final failed takedown attempt with a bruising combination, knocking Gonza out cold with two seconds left in the opening round. Result: Kappa Knox by KO

Co-Main Event

265 lbs Bruno Neves (22-15, 0-1) (+141) v Manuel Neuer (-174) (21-12, 2-1)

Manuel Neuer is one of the busiest CFC fighters in the new era, and he improved his record to 2-1 (21-12 overall) with a late second round submission win over newcomer Bruno Neves. Neves was in trouble very early, suffering a cut from a crisp jab in the opening seconds. His game plan worked to minimize the danger as he spent the rest of the round on his back, keeping himself protected. Unfortunately, that was about all the worked in his favor. Neuer successfully defended twelve submission attempts while controlling from the top and came away with the first round. He continued his stellar defence in the second, stuffing multiple takedown attempts early, but Neves didn’t give up, finally getting him on the fourth attempt. Roles reversed from the first round, with Neuer working from the bottom and Neves attempting to defend. It didn’t take long for Neves to make a mistake. Neuer locked it in on his fourth attempt and came away with the win. Result: Manuel Neuer by Submission

Undercard

205 lbs Mike Holmes Jr (25-18, 2-2) (-182) v Pierre Joseph Proudhon (+147) (32-16, 1-2)

"Do It Right The 1st Time" Mike Holmes Jr overcame a disappointing loss at CFC 441 to beat Pierre Joseph Proudhon in a very close fight. The first round was all Holmes Jr, taking the fight to the mat and aggressively attempting to make quick work of Proudhon via submission. The fans hated it, Proudhon hated it, Holmes Jr’s corner gave it two thumbs up. The second round was a mixed bag; judges couldn’t decide whether Holmes Jr’s strikes were crisp enough or whether Proudhon’s aggressiveness carried the day. The fans loved it, no real damage was done, and the judges flipped a coin. The third round was all Proudhon, allowing Holmes Jr to clinch and working the body. It was never going to knock Holmes Jr out, but it was enough to win the round. Fans poo-pooed it, Holmes Jr didn’t care, and Proudhon’s corner shrugged their shoulders. Result: Mike Holmes Jr by Unanimous Decision

185 lbs Wilfredo Wild (+125) (36-17-2, 4-0) v James Yarborough (-130) (11-3, 0-1)

That’s the sound of me being satisfied. Champion Wilfredo "The Convict" Wild and #1 challenger James Yarborough "T R O N" battled in the best possible way for five rounds; standing toe-to-toe. A crisp jab by Yarborough had the champion cut three minutes into the fight, a worrying situation at any level so early in the fight. It didn’t change Wild’s game plan though, as he continued to pepper Yarborough with punches that would have knocked a lesser man to his knees. Judges gave the round to Wild. A beautiful combination followed by a shot to the eye socket cut Yarborough moments into the second round and this one did have an effect. Yarborough wasn’t hurt, but must have been shocked because he allowed the champion eighteen straight strikes before responding. An easy round win for Wild. Down 2-0 on the cards, Yarborough tried to change things a little in the third, throwing out more kicks to keep Wild out of range. Only one landed, but it gave the challenger time to recoup and gain some confidence, which he put to good use in the fourth. Allowing Wild to throw himself out, Yarborough started to connect with more consistency and set up an uppercut 90 seconds into the fourth that rocked the champion. Wild wobbled, but didn’t turtle, instead throwing a couple of strikes which kept Yarborough far enough away, allowing him to recover. Final round had the champion up on all cards and he didn’t slow down for a second, landing multiple strikes with some ferocity that the referee nearly stopped the fight. Whether he was too gassed or wasn’t aware of the time remaining, Yarborough didn’t begin to step things up until it was too late. Great fight by both fighters, but there can only be one winner. Result and still middleweight champion, Wilfredo Wild by Unanimous Decision

 

Co-Main Event

 

 

265 lbs The Devils Outlaw (+141) (21-4, 1-1) v Shaka Zulu (-104) (12-6, 1-1)

The heavyweight division has a new challenger. The Devils Outlaw put CFC on notice with a definitive statement in this fight, pounding the snot out of Shaka "Giganto" Zulu and earning KO of the night. After being dominated by a takedown expert at CFC 441, Outlaw vowed to keep the fight standing at all costs. Zulu dove in early and Outlaw smartly avoided it by pushing down and hopping out of the way. Before Zulu could get back up from his attempt, Outlaw had hit him with a combination and a jab that had Zulu bleeding. Second after a faked takedown attempt, Outlaw landed two huge right hands, sending Zulu to the canvas. Outlaw pounced to continue the onslaught, but Zulu was already out cold. The ref jumped in, saving Zulu from any permanent damage. Result:  The Devils Outlaw by TKO

 

The Three Spot

145 lbs James Hackett (-133) (17-9-1, 2-1) v Maverick Syndal (+133) (23-14-1, 0-1)

It’s been a month since James "Fake Dimples" Hackett lost his title at CFC 438. He stepped into Wombley Arena looking to clear a way back to the title, but had to make it through CFC newcomer Maverick Syndal first. Hackett was aggressive early, clinching up with Syndal and immediately cutting him open with a knee to the head. Syndal was forced on the defensive, using energy to block the MT strikes until Hackett disengaged. It was an all out slugfest the rest of the round, both fighters landing some good shots and carrying the momentum into the second. Hackett took that momentum, wrapped it up in a nice holiday bow, and while Syndal was distracted by all the pretty colors, kicked him in the nuts. A literal and figurative low blow by James Hackett stopped the fight early in the second until we could all get our breaths back. When the fight continued, Hackett tried changing things up a bit, taking Syndal down to the mat after a clinch. Neither fighter seemed sure of what to do so the referee helped them out by standing them back up. The sloppy second gave way to a great third round. Both fighters stood and exchanged strikes for the majority of the round. Hackett was dominant, landing a sequence of low kicks, overhand rights, and uppercuts that had Syndal wobbling and momentarily defenseless. He survived the round, but it was Hackett all the way. Result: Hackett by Unanimous Decision

 

Best of the Rest

For the Vacated Light Heavyweight Championship

205 lbs Sammy Beach (+115) (17-13, 1-0) v Jan Sobieski (-153) (21-13, 1-2)

The early retirement of CFC light heavyweight champion Antonio Mauricio DeSilva was a blessing in disguise for Sammy "Miami" Beach and Jan Sobieski. A CFC newcomer, Sammy Beach was playing the role of challenger in this vacated title fight against Warsaw’s Jan Sobieski. Sobieski was looking to use his wrestling skills to take Beach to the mat and he tried early and often. Beach had been working on his takedown defence leading up to the fight, and it showed as he avoided the majority of the attempts, forcing Sobieski to stand and exchange. It paid off very early in the second round. Beach set up a huge right hand with a body blow, sending Sobieski to the canvas, unable to defend himself. Result and new light heavyweight champion, Sammy Beach by TKO.

   

155 lbs Marc Read (-130) (10-8-1, 1-0) v Chakrii Weecharangsan (-102) (14-16, 0-1)

New CFC lightweight fighters, Marc Read and "Royal Blood" Chakrii Weecharangsan entertained the crowd for a round and a half. It probably should have ended earlier, but Read wasn’t able to finish Weecharangsan in the first after a nasty head kick knockdown. He easily survived a simply all-or-nothing game plan, finishing Weecharangsan with a huge uppercut that had the crowd salivating. Result: Marc Read by TKO

 

185 lbs Bagel Boss (-135) (19-15-1, 0-1) v Jaheim Reid (+102) (31-16, 1-1)

Bagel Boss hates tall women. He also seemed to hate Jaheim "Junior" Reid as he cut him in the early seconds of his CFC debut with a left hook and uppercut. Classic. Reid returned the favor a minute later when Boss dropped his hands to scratch himself. Unsatisfied with that, Reid did his best Ivan Drago impression, knocking Boss off the ropes and rocking him to death.

 

 

Result: Jaheim Reid by TKO

 

205 lbs Sol Fitzsimmons (-122) (16-14-1, 1-1) v Keijo Maki (-108) (11-6, 1-1)

CFC 446’s fight of the night, these two light heavyweights split the first two rounds and wowed the crowd with constant and aggressive fighting. Fitzsimmons was rocked late in the first, but survived to the third round. Maki unleashed a disgustingly brutal kick to the side of his head at with less than two minutes left and there was no getting up from that one. Result: Keijo Maki by KO

 

265 lbs Ginger Jesus (+127) (11-8, 0-2) v Naoise Durnin (-170) (19-13, 2-0)

Bhuaigh agus feabhsaíonn Tyler Durnin a thaifead. My Irish is rusty, but the gist is that Knee-sha "The Survivor" Durnin made quick work of "Da Ginga Ninja" Ginger Jesus, landing multiple blows in quick succession in the clinch. An elbow was the last straw, rocking Jesus and forcing him to cover up. Result:  Naoise Durnin by TKO

 

205 lbs Khunbish Borjigin (-178) (30-19, 0-1) v Bill Goldberg (+133) (22-21, 2-0)

No, no, no. I was polite at CFC 441 when Bill "The Spear" Goldberg won his first CFC fight, but I won’t hold my tongue any longer. I hate the associative name of Bill Goldberg and I can’t get over it. Nay, won’t get over it. CFC’s Bill Goldberg (boooo) improves to 2-0 with a win over old man Khunbish Borjigin. Both his wins have come by way of cut and this one was particularly revolting. Result: Bill Goldberg by TKO

 

205 lbs Yoshito Okamoto (-144) (2-3-2, 0-0-2) v Felix Silva (+108) (9-3-1, 0-1-1)

This is a first for me. Yoshito Okamoto is winless and undefeated in two CFC fights. He and Felix Silva fought to a draw after a boring opener. You can’t win em all I guess. Result: Majority Draw

Main Event

For the Welterweight Championship

 

 

170 lbs Ceaser El Toro Jr (-133) (22-8, 3-0) v Avraam Papadopoulos (+153) (32-19-1, 2-1)

"The Drizzle" Ceaser El Toro Jr extended his winning streak to three after another successful Welterweight title defence. The 170-pound main event lasted the entire five rounds and went to decision, but there wasn’t any doubt who was going to come out on top. Avraam Papadopoulos had a chance of pulling off the early upset when he slipped a jab through El Toro Jr’s defences, sending him stumbling. It was brief, unexpected, and I believe if it had been a harder strike, Papadopoulos could have done some real damage. El Toro Jr recovered nicely, cutting the challenger midway through the first with a sharp elbow to the side of the head. It was a non-factor through the second round, another round dominated by the champion, who used the clinch early and often to punish the challenger. The stand-up back and forth continued into the third round. Despite all the boxing work Papadopoulos put in between fights, he had no answer for the accurate and brutal strikes. El Toro Jr mixed it up in the fourth round, dragging his opponent to the mat, but the subs were half-hearted, a little predictable, and I have a feeling he was just looking to put in work. Papadopoulos stepped it up with a minute gone in the fifth, looking to break through the strong grasp of El Toro Jr and land a lucky shot. He could get nothing done and was barely able to stand he was so tired. Easy win for El Toro Jr. Result and still champion:  Ceaser El Toro Jr by Unanimous Decision.

 

Co-Main Event

 

 

 

185 lbs Kirov Sturmovik (-127) (9-2, 0-2) v Leo Bosanac (+111) (8-1, 1-0)

"Lightning" Leo Bosanac proved the experts at A Good Cause wrong and won his first CFC fight against "The Flying Wrecker" Kirov Sturmovik … barely. Sturmovik came out like a house on fire, hammering Bosanac with a brutal combination, rocking him, cutting him, and sending him crashing to the canvas. Bosanac managed to avoid the next couple of strikes while on his back, something Sturmovik will be replaying in his nightmares for weeks to come. Sturmovik’s domination continued into the second and he landed at-will for the first minute. It looked all but over, but the tide changed after 90 seconds. Whether Sturmovik hurt himself or Bosanac finally started listening to his corner is debatable. Whatever the reason, Bosanac came to life, avoiding Sturmovik’s strikes and finally landing some of his own. The latter part of the second round was all Bosanac, who showed great footwork and speed while keeping the fight where he wanted it. He hit his opponent so hard that Sturmovik knocked himself out after running full-speed into Bosanac’s outstretched fist. Result: Leo Bosanac by knockout

For the Featherweight Championship

145 lbs Azacca Trounvouche (-130) (19-6-1, 2-1) v Diogo Jimenez (+138) (17-7, 2-1)

Diogo Jimenez has a shiny new belt around his waist, but it was a controversial split decision that has the featherweight division buzzing. "The Original Rude Boy" Azacca Trounvouche won the title at CFC 438 and most expected a similar result here, but it was not-to-be. After tweaking his nipples, Jimenez did his best to avoid early damage, looking to play the long game and it seemed to work. Trounvouche did manage to use his height advantage to land shots, but they weren’t clean enough to do any serious damage. A tight round that had no clear winner. Trounvouche was more effective in the second round, pogo-ing around the ring with more confidence and landing multiple straight punches to the noggin’. His ribs swollen and bruised, Jimenez came out in the third and re-asserted his own game-plan, successfully avoiding the worst of the damage and mounting some good counters. The fourth round was much of the same, a very strong and aggressive stand-up clash with little to distinguish a winner. Heading into the final round, it was the challenger ahead on most cards, though it was too close to be certain. Neither fighter seemed to show any urgency, so both probably felt like they were ahead. Sadly for the champion, his corner had a poor read on the fight so he wasn’t told to pick up the pace. He was satisfied with sitting in a closed guard for the final two minutes, letting time run out. Result and new featherweight champion, Diogo Jimenez by Split Decision.

 

Best of the Rest

135 lbs Little Kitty Sripituksakul (-125) (19-8-1, 0-1) v Pat Joplin (-120) (21-10, 1-1)

A mixed bag for Little Kitty Sripituksakul in his first CFC fight. He showed his class in the first round against submission expert, "The Human Thermometer" Pat Joplin, but became overaggressive in the second. A more patient Joplin was content to let Sripituksakul do the work for him, laying in wait until he could isolate a body part. With Sripituksakul reversing to get into a better ground and pound position, Joplin held onto his arm, twisting it until Sripituksakul could take no more. Result: Pat Joplin by submission.

170 lbs Ivan Andrianov (-104) (12-9, 0-2) v Ralphie Maldonado (-144) (17-9, 2-0)
Ralphie "Maldo" Maldonado is now 2-0 in the CFC with a very entertaining and dominating performance against Ivan "Snurri" Andrianov. It went the distance, but it was never in doubt. Maldonado cut him early and rocked him late, setting up an arrogant post-fight interview that the crowd ate up. Result: Ralphie Maldonado by Unanimous Decision.

265 lbs Spinning Fire (-108) (18-6, 2-0) v Professor Xe (-138) (19-7, 1-1)

Back to the plastic surgeon for Professor Xe. His face was unrecognizable after the fight, and credit to the doctor for calling it when they did. I don’t think Xe could have afforded to lose any more blood. Result: Spinning Fire by TKO

185 lbs Alan Spence (-115) (10-4, 2-0) v Tua Taamu (-130) (6-8, 1-2)

This review has been heavily edited as I have an intense hatred for one of the fighters. His name will not be uttered.

265 lbs Tinashe Chukwuma (-120) (6-2, 3-0) v Olli Lindholm (-125) (11-7, 0-2)

Don’t look now, but Kamala is three and oh in the CFC. Chukwuma was cut early in the first from a Lindholm knee, but fought through it to survive the first round. Lindholm missed a clinch in the second and was knocked down with a huge left hand. Result: Tinashe Chukwuma by KO

265 lbs Sam Cooper (-117) (9-7, 1-0) v Dez Havok (-127) (4-7, 0-3)

"Lucky" Dez Havok’s career is nearing an end. Newcomer Sam "Setanta" Cooper wasn’t great, but strong enough in the clinch to pull this one out. Havok is now winless in the CFC. Result: Sam Cooper by Unanimous Decision

145 lbs Henry Wallace (-111) (19-24, 0-1) v Khalib Nuragomidova (-135) (8-6, 1-1)

Henry "The Taco Bell Strangler" Wallace had one too many tacos and lost his CFC debut. Khalib "The Falcon " Nuragomidova ground and pound game was amazing. Result: Khalib Nuragomidova by TKO

Main Event

For the Bantamweight Championship

 

 

135 lbs Yuro Nagasaki (+100) (36-22, 2-0) v Leonardo Da Silva (-122) (38-19, 2-1)

"The Ninja Demon" Yuro Nagasaki beat Pat Joplin at CFC 441 for the inaugural CFC new era bantamweight belt. Leonardo Da Silva went the distance, making Nagasaki work for it, but the outcome was never in doubt. The champion won all rounds on all cards, mixing some decent groundwork in with an aggressive standup game plan. Da Silva had a great opportunity in the first round, his only true opportunity of the fight, when he caught Nagasaki going for a leg sweep and smartly countered it into a full mount. He couldn’t capitalize on it as Nagasaki worked to improve his worsening position, something he was capable to do most of the night. Result and still bantamweight champion, Yuro Nagasaki by Unanimous Decision.

 

Co-Main Event

For the Lightweight Championship

 

 

 

155 lbs Roy Whitaker (-153) (28-12, 3-0) v Akaro Horiguchi (+125) (16-9-1, 2-2)

The lightweight championship was a little closer than the Main Event and one of the better fights you’ll ever see, earning Fight of the Night. Roy "SweetPea" Whitaker improves in the CFC to 3-0 (2-0 in title defences) while Akaro "Kid Lightning" Horiguchi falls to 2-2. Whitaker is quickly becoming a fan favorite, choosing to stand-up through his entire fights, throwing as many strikes as his 160 lb body can throw. Horiguchi was no slouch either, not giving an inch as he used his Muay Thai skills to repeatedly chop at the champion’s legs in order to slow him down. The challenger nearly won it in the second, dancing away from some wild hooks and countering with a right cross which dazed Whitaker for much longer than his corner was comfortable with. Horiguchi landed only one strike during his flurry to finish, a jab that wasn’t going to do much. The champion survived the round and went on to retain the belt. Result and still lightweight champion, Roy Whitaker by Unanimous Decision.

Best of the Rest

135 lbs Petdee Sitsongrit (-150) (31-13, 2-0) v Chester Drawers (+122) (18-13, 1-1)

Petdee Sitsongrit won the ground game in a boring fight against Chester Drawers. He successfully brushed aside twenty-three Chester Drawer sub attempts, a credit to his defensive prowess. Result: Petdee Sitsongrit by Unanimous Decision

185 lbs Andor Kovacs (6-2-1, 1-1) v Penkosip Bizihwaile (13-11, 1-0)

Penkosip Bizihwaile was deadly accurate, landing 85% of his strikes and winning his first CFC fight in a minute, 45 seconds. Kovacs falls to 1-1 and will hope to keep his wildness in check next fight. Result:  Penkosip Bizihwaile by TKO.

265 lbs Thiago Araujo (27-26, 2-2) v Brent Boston (28-17, 0-2)

Thiago Araujo evened his CFC record to 2-2 after winning a three-round snorefest against "Bostons" Brent Boston. Araujo will tell you it’s only the result that matters, but he’ll win no fans for style points. With 95% of the fight on the mat and 54 position improvements between them, nobody will be looking for a rematch. Result: Thiago Araujo by Unanimous Decision.

145 lbs Mike Lowe (35-20, 2-0) v Tommy Walcott (31-22-3, 0-2)

Two 145 pound fighters heading in opposite directions. Mike Lowe (2-0) won his second straight CFC decision while "Gypsy" Tommy Walcott (0-2) achieved the opposite feat. A clinch-heavy, each fighter managed to hurt the other, but it came down to accuracy. Result: Mike Lowe by Unanimous Decision

145 lbs Ser Bian Warc Riminal (8-4, 1-0) v Anthon Van Der Dusse (15-24, 1-1)

Just when you hoped Anthon Van Der Dusse was turning the corner in his career, he gets subbed by Ser Bian Warc Riminal in less than a minute. Riminal, in his first CFC fight, didn’t need much of an opening, using Van Der Dusse’s sloppy takedown to his advantage and forcing the tap. Result: Ser Bian Warc Riminal by Submission

205 lbs Daniel Hazlehurst (21-17, 0-1) v Clive Staples Lewis (7-4 1-0)

Two CFC light heavyweight newcomers went the distance. Clive Staples "C.S." Lewis got up close and personal with Daniel "Disco Dane" Hazlehurst, clinching early and often. The two combined for 250 strikes thrown, an incredible amount of activity in three rounds, with Lewis landing twice as much. Result: Clive Staples Lewis by Unanimous Decision.

185 lbs Jun Liu (15-13, 2-0) v Wilky Pierre (13-10, 1-1)

Jun "205 Queen" Liu is now 2-0 after a second round TKO of Wilky "Thunder" Pierre. Pierre was just too predictable, allowing Liu to set up a beautiful counter and turning Pierre into a bloody mess. Result: Jun Liu by TKO

170 lbs Desmond Glass (43-24-2, 0-1) v Exeudo Oni (9-8, 1-0)

Never good when you lose your organizational debut, but you have to hand it to "Super Fast" Desmond Glass, he lost in style. Exeudo "Frightmare" Oni won with three seconds left in the first round after the doctor stepped in to stop the fight because of excess bleeding. Rumor has it Oni was seen “putting on the foil” before the fight.

 

 

 

Result: Exeudo Oni by TKO.

Roy "SweetPea" Whitaker 28-12(3-0 CFC)

I proved in my last fight that I got a big heart and I won't leave the cage without my belt, I don't wanna lose it, I won't lose it, I lost one before and that make me who I am today! Can't wait to get in there next year to make another successful defense, got a fight already signed and I hope we will be the main event of that card!

Cage Magazine’s CFC Deep Dive: Featherweight Division

Hello, CFC World!! 
We've heard the rumors on Buzz. We've noticed the complaints on Tycoon Discord.  We've even seen it written on a bathroom stall at Vegan Gains Nutrition. Everyone's saying the same thing: We want Dead Disney to give a bottom-of-the-barrel, semi-literate look at the featherweight division at CFC. And BOY, are you guys gonna get it good. So, get yourselves a box of Barnum’s animal crackers and a juice box, and let’s get to schlepping.

                                                                                     Big Daddy Disney’s Take
Disclaimer: For the tragically unaware, Cage Magazine and Disney’s Take are NOT part of the official rankings of the CFC. Disney’s take is the division through the biased and myopic lens of Big Daddy Disney. Don’t get it twisted. Dead Disney knows all and sees all. His opinions are worth more than anything you’ve ever done with your life, I promise you.

Let’s get this out of the way: The CFC featherweight division is stacked. That’s not hyperbole – that is a sobering fact. It’s also deep too – twenty-eight men deep. And all those fighting bastards are active. It is the most competitive division in the CFC. 

Champion: Diogo Jimenez 

What we do know: Captured the FW title by narrowly defeating Azacca Trounvouche at CFC 447.  2x Grunge FW champ, former Rapid Fire BW champ.

What we don’t know: Can Diogo keep his belt for long. There are many sharks swimming in the FW division at CFC. One notable sea dog (and a Disney favorite) in the lot is Leonardo Da Silva, who has beaten Diogo five times (!!) in six fights. Not to mention, the other salivating, splenetic, saboteurs waiting to sink their mandibles into some juicy Diogo meat. Mmmm… let’s talk about "them men".

                                                                            Them Men Aiming For The King (in random order)

Yuro Nagasaki: Sharing duties between Combate and the CFC, the Japanese supervillain has been on an eight-fight winning streak that dates back to August of 2021. He decimated the Odense BW division and was stripped of his title because Odense “didn’t want to share him with any other fight org”. Rumor has it, he was stripped because he ran out of fighters to beat the shit out of. Either way, at 39 years of age, Yuro’s window for world control is rapidly shrinking. I’ve been told his goal is to become CFC and Combate FW champion simultaneously. Difficult goal indeed. Neither division is a cakewalk.

Lemmy Bang: A dirty boxer extraordinaire and on a four-fight unbeaten rip, Lemmy Bang has looked like a completely different fighter since joining Team Heavy Metal circa August 2021. I would say he’s the odds-on favorite to defeat Diogo Jimenez at CFC 456. If I’m being honest with myself, he may be the odds-on favorite to rule the division. And also, to be honest, I certainly hope he doesn't. I like exciting underdogs. 

Leonardo Da Silva: I gladly signed Da Silva to CFC in hopes he would finish his career here. He will likely have to sit on the shelf for a couple of weeks though because no one in his p4p ranking is available. Hopefully, the old man doesn’t keel over before he gets another shot at CFC platinum. 

James Hackett: I don’t like this guy. I don’t know if it’s that stupid mask or what. I just don’t like him. And why are you wearing a mask anyway, my dude? We know your government name!! I hope he never wins another title. Ever. Or in the immortal words of Silky Johnson, “I hope all the bad things in life happen to you and nobody else but you.” Fuck James Hackett lol.

Azzaca Trounvouche: I like Azzaca T. Not only has he defeated an army of masked men but especially because he defeated James Hackett twice. I expect him to soldier past the masked idiot at CFC 455. The winner of Trounvouche v Hackett gets an immediate title shot. May the best Trounvouche win. P.S. Azzaca, I think Cutty Ranks and Neville Staple may want to have a word or two with you regarding that “Original Rude Boy” moniker. Stay safe.

Dark Horses: Ser Bian Warc Riminal (aka SBWR) and Petdee Sitsongrit

Ffs, it's spelled 'Trounvouche'. Must remember to spell the fighter names correctly 😪

Pat Joplin vs James Hackett

 

James "Can't" Hackett is on his way home with a resounding victory against Pat Joplin in the Main Event at CFC 467. Hackett proved his title loss at CFC 463 was a fluke, dominating former #1 contender Pat Joplin from the start of the fight. I talked to one of the lucky 93,607 spectators in attendance who said "I couldn't see much to be honest. When the entrance music started, everyone jumped to their feet and I spilled my beer. By the time I finished cleaning up, it was all over. I heard Hackett didn't even take off his balaclava, is that true?" Pat Joplin gave up on the ground and pound after encountering tough defence, allowing Hackett to gain the dominant position which he didn't let go. Joplin tried to push back to guard, but Hackett caught hold of his neck and choked him out. It's Joplin's first loss in the CFC and earned Hackett the sub of the night award. 

 

[HareRumpler]

Good morning CFC folks!!!   Hare Rumpler here for just a moment to hopefully bring you some exciting news and also provide you some additional information on top of what you've already heard from the man, the myth, the legend known as Disney!

I know all of you have already receiving news from DD about the upcoming merger between Sucker Punch and CFC.  More than anything, I just wanted to take a moment to let everybody here know that my door, as well as DD's, is open to you for any questions, concerns or just general comments!  Over at Sucker Punch, we fully and enthusiastically welcome you with open arms and will do our damned best to continue to provide the level of service, respect and fun you've come to expect from being part of CFC here!  

I put up a bunch of info in an initial pass here...feel free to have a look.  But in the meantime, specifics to you guys coming from CFC, I'd say I hope you'll come aboard with us.  I'll be working on contracts shortly to co-sign.  This won't mess up any existing fights you have upcoming at CFC here but we'd hope to slide you over and integrate you in after those fights complete.  For those without fights already scheduled, we'll get you into the mix sooner!  For the contenders and champs here, rest assured, we will get you right into the mix over at SPPS and hopefully give you a great go at stepping right into the ladder, and in the case of champs here, get the shot to just polish off a new belt!

I'm truly excited about the chance to work with all of you...for those that are new with us and haven't been with me at SPPS in the past, and certainly for those who have fighters at SPPS already to see a couple more of your guys potentially!

If you feel that your guy doesn't really fit in at SPPS or have other concerns, please, hit me up and let's chat.  We've got room for the vast majority fo the roster here and will expand our events to three per week to accomodate for as long as needed.  There may be a few along the bottoms of the ladder in the divisions we can't accomodate, but that shouldn't be many.  I think the only division we're unable to potentially move at this time is the Super Heavyweight Division, but I also know that Disney has potentially reached out to help find a solution for that as well!  Here's to growth and an amazing opportunity for Disney and I to work together going forward!!!!
