Not Done YetSam was uncharacteristically focused this camp, and didn't even go visit any cheap hotels with girls-- Infact he hasn't mentioned a girl for over a week now. Danielsson wanted to get back where he was-- On top. He stumbled but if he keeps up all this good work, I see no reason why he can't get back to being a champion!
Watching on TV, we saw that Dong Wan Song won his Preliator debut and looks like he may be getting a title shot sooner rather than later, motivating Danielsson even more to continue his new workout regime.
LFC - FW - Borya SEMYONOV vs. Charlie VINTERMy childhood friend Charlie still worked his ass off in camp, teaches Kevin and those local kids. Such a brilliant mind, but I feel he may have started this journey too late into his life--- As his body was betraying him. He's in fantastic shape, yet still gets finished.
I've seen enough fights to know that Vinter is a finish or be finished type of MMA fighter, but he needs to pull through often to overcome this weakness. I fixed a bout up against a Russian that uses a combat sambo style, something he might be familiar with sparring with Danielsson all the time.
If Charlie fucking Vinter doesn't win this fight, we've had some discussions ... This might be the end of the road, I can't watch my best friend get beat up. The fight starts off well, Charlie using his karate background to land a spinning back kick to the body. He sends Borya to the mat, falling into his guard. Charlie was doing well--Until it got to the ground, the Russian swept him and ended up in mount when Charlie was preparing to drop some bombs. The wind up was too much. Charlie eats several strikes and nearly struggles out, but the bell sounds the end of the round.
"Hang in there, don't engage in sambo tactics and stick to your karate. Do what's best for you."
A few strikes exchanged bythem, before Vinter counters with a knee to the body. They end up exchanging some more, before Charli--FLOORS BORYA WITH A COMBO! Vinter follows up as the crowd chants 'Finish him!' and starts raining fists against the Russian's head, before the Russian taps from the punishment and brute force of Charlie's fist.
The veteran hangs on, ready to fight another day. Charlie Vinter wins by Submission (Tap to Strikes)
