The 408 (205 edition) kicked off with a bang! We had it all in Round 1, crazy comebacks, clinch warriors and some surprise submission artists disguised as strikers!
SNEAK ATTACK TAKEDOWNS - The big talking point from Round 1 was how effective the ground guys were. 4 fighters came out looking for takedowns relentlessly and all 4 came out victorious.
Clinchwarriors unite - Arwell Jones and Lamar Riggs have showed their hand early as it looks they'll take, what some have called, the boring route to victory by way of the clinch rape. While not the most popular method of fighting, it certainly is effective, lets see if it continues to be.
Mr Big Heart - Cal Ripken produced the knockout of the round with a gutsy comeback victory. Knocked Down and Rocked in the first minute, Ripken bounced straight off the canvas delivering a brutal uppercut KO of his opponent just moments later.
Let the hate flow on - Bruno Eriksson and Aggressive Merman have brought the fireworks to the tourney with their managers engaged in a bitter fued. Their antics have brought so much attention they've now been booked as the opposing coaches of the next edition of TUF starting at the 410k turn - stay tuned!
Lets hope the hate continues to build between the two before they meet in the final round of the group stage to settle the score!
ROUND 2 Note - We had a 16 day cut so the next event has been booked for just after that. We’ll always book events a day or two after the longest cut injury we have so no one has to fight injured/cut
