**THE SPOTLIGHT**


Leon Bouchard
Current Record: 18-9



Leon Bouchard is a French born MMA fighter, and former National Kickboxing Champion. Born and raised in Montpellier, Leon is the youngest son of Guy Bouchard, manager and head trainer of the esteemed karate academy, "Gymnase de la Main et le Pied". Truly a mixed martial artist, Leon began training in his fathers school from the time he could walk, and has attained black belts in Karate, Taekwondo, and American Kickboxing over the years. At the young age of 21, Bouchard made a life changing journey across the ocean to compete in the National American Kickboxing scene. There, he would terrorize his opponents, and attain legendary status going an incredible 41-0.

Leon made his much anticipated transition to MMA a few years later and has not disappointed his fans. He's been on a roll, cruising through the lower levels of MMA with ease. Opponents will find that Bouchard can be taken advantage of on the ground, but good luck getting him there. Bouchard is an expert at using his explosive kicks to keep his opponents FAR away from him. Recently, he has beaten former SPOTLIGHT feature, Chael "Smash" Bennet, for the PREL title. Rumor has it that the Frenchman will make his EFC debut sometime in the very near future. Fans of his have been refreshing his Wikipedia page non-stop to find out who his first opponent will be.

Awesome job captain, yeah next fight will be in efc! Will take a small lay off in order to put KB and MA to 3.5 and will be on the road to win that efc belt!

You know I just noticed on my guy that he has none of his fights have ever gone to a finish. I don't think I've ever had a guy that was like that.

Getting an update together on "Power Rankings" that should be up in just a bit...

In the meantime, I'd like to remind all the competitors that the preferred ORG path is: (LOTC), (LFC), (UNO), (PREL + EFC)

If you have deviated from that path, don't worry, you aren't breaking any rules... It just means you're a spineless coward. (Or you forgot)

**THE SPOTLIGHT**


Walter Kelly
Current Record: 18-9



If you grew up on the east coast, and paid even the slightest attention to sports at the High School/College level, then you've definitely heard the name Walter "Ground N Pound" Kelly. An accomplished wrestler, with an impressive pedigree. Kelly won multiple championships in high school, and was an NCAA Division 1 Champion at Penn State. Though he was offered a spot in the 2500 Summer Olympics, he passed on the opportunity in order to pursue MMA.

Walter might be the most impressive competitor in our event in terms of pure graps. He is an expert at smothering his opponents. He's been cursed with the dreaded stigma of "pillow hands", but he also has a granite chin. He had never been finished until very recently when he took on UNO champion Kyle Rollins. A beastly striker with twice the experience.

Though some have speculated that Kelley has a past as a luchadore, this is untrue. Kelley has never had anything to do with Lucha Libre siting Sports Entertainment style wrestling as "Gay". The truth is that he has an EXTREMELY VULGAR tattoo across his face, and is required to wear the mask as part of various MMA media contracts.... You don't want to know what it says.
