LFC - FW - Izanagi TAYAMA vs. Charlie VINTER

Charlie's a true fighter to the core, and despite his loss in the title fight? He still got up in the morning to help out at the gym. Dedication goes a long way and I hope sometime I can offer my childhood friend a real shot at MMA glory through my camp.

His next fight was against some Japanese judo practitioner but we thought it would be easy since the man was only 2-4. Boyyyyy.

They ended up in a clinch, but I felt Charlie was getting the better of him-- Until the Jap dropped him to the ground with a well timed throw. Round two was pretty brutal as Charlie could never get his footing in this bout and clearly couldn't handle the judo throws. This has happened before, Charlie giving up his back trying to get some distance but it's futile at this point.

Submission set. Sinks. He taps.

It hurts me seeing Charlie get done in like that but I marched into the cage and made a vow. "We're going back to the basics, Charlie. My way." Charlie would be the first to test out the type of fighting I meant.



ABC - FLY - Narisa INTHON vs. Sam DANIELSSON

I didn't get to make this fight in all truth since I was Charlie's corner, but Kevin was there for Sammy boy and I heard it was all good. Looking at the tape and I was -NOT- impressed. What the fuck, how did Sam eve win? I clearly need to show more support for my fighters but what can I do? He's in a tough organization so we need to work on training with Danielsson a lot more.

He's the one I built my brand around, and also the reason our gym have a sponsor. We can't afford to let him falter.

It's funny, Inthon is to that camp as Danielsson is to yours. He's kind of stuck where he is right now, but if I get some sparring partners to improve his speed, footwork, and reflexes, I think he'll have a lot of success. Also, ABC judges don't seem to like him.

Danielsson has stopped everyone so far, and I honestly think Inthon should have won this fight but bad luck with the refs happen and can be frustrating. Good luck with him, and maybe well have a rematch in the near future!

I don't think that writing out the commentator lines really adds anything to this. It was fine like it was before, imo.

JSCRAP - BW - Morgan HAYES vs. Gabe ANDERSSON


We got Gabe up against some English fighter who had been in MMA around the same amount of time as Gabe has--Except Gabe spends a considerable amount of time at the beach. Despite the two losses, I know Andersson still has some skill on the ground as he did pretty well in the last fight before getting submitted.

From what we figured out through tape, this was a Judo professional that has only won an UD AND has been finished twice--We have an opportunity here now to deal with this on the ground or at least I thought so!

This Morgan guy was pretty smart and immediately forced Gabe to clinch, and did a good job at keeping our vegan off balance. I say a lot of ill about Gabe, but he's definitely crafty with the way he fights. He even slipped a leg through into a defensive half guard. It was all going well until Hayes flipped Gabe onto the ground at the end of the round.

Round 2 was quite uneventful as they both launched strikes and stayed standing, despite me and Charlie telling Gab to go to the ground. Maybe he was afraid of being submitted again? They exchanged blows and ... No one really did major damage or anything.

In the 2rd round Gabe came out swinging and staggered Hayes HARD! He ends up pushing him down and willing his ground expertise on the Englishman before the bell sounds. Decision time and I was surprised again by the result.



How does he keep getting away with this BS?


LFC - FW - Charlie VINTER vs. Todd DAVIDSON

We -have- to change things up for my childhood buddy, I couldn't just let him get dominated like that so we went back to his bare basics! Charlie has a great background in karate, and even hosts classes for kids at his own gym. I decided right then and there that we should focus on him developing that style since it suits him so well. It's a big risk going this route, but if it pays off? It will set Charlie back on track.

This fight would still be a challenge, since I was aware that Davidson has a wrestling background but he had no prior MMA fights so this would be a relative unknown. I wanted a decent test, but also build Charlie's confidence back up so this was a logical move here. The only issue is that Todd might use his wrestling to neutralize Charlie's striking.

"I believe in you bud', go get 'em."

Round 1 started off with the two feeling each other out with a few blows before committing to a clinch. Vinter was forced away from it while eating a knee, and I was honestly starting to get worried. Did I make a mistake in advising him to change styles? The Canadian evaded Charlie's kick with relative ease and I looked over at Kevin wondering if this would be it? An audible slapping sound rang through the arena as Vinter blocks a HEAVY kick from Todd. Oh god, if that connected? He might have been out cold!

Still round 1 and .. Charlie connects with a cross! HE'S HURT! Me and Kevin were just screaming. "DON'T LET UP! FINISH! FINISH!'. A right puts Davidson to the ground! Charlie towers over him and finishes the job with a brutal knock out! Bouncing Todd's skull off the ground!


This was just what Charlie needed to bring his confidence back up, going back to his roots in Karate worked out well for him. I honestly believe he can make waves now and actually prove his toughness.

Got a call from my friend at ABC, and I knew what it was about for the most part. Danielsson's first title defense as the ABC Flyweight Champion. Dong Wan Song just fought recently so he was out of the picture--And I was relieved. He's a monster that won 4 fights in a row at the ABC level, and is on a 6 fight win streak total thus far. His last three wins were all my knock out, and he broke some dude's fucking leg!

Rocky Arnold would be Danielsson's opponent and he was no slouch either, being one of the BEST prospects in MMA with his 12-3 record. A tremendous wrestler and one with knock out power. Five rounds with this guy? God damn the ABC is not letting Sammy boy rest easy!

Most interesting of all ... My friend notified me that if Sam -defends- the belt and does well in his fight? Preliator is willing to open the doors for Sam, my jaw almost dropped. The 2nd best fight organization in the world was willing to give Sam a chance?

I just pray he doesn't lose. I send Charlie off to drag Sam out of some hotel and get him training. The real test begins NOW!

fucking Charlie Vinter

Rocky Arnold is pretty good, I expect him to end up in the EFC eventually. He beat one of my guys, a current 15-3 PREL fighter, in his last fight.
