Busy Times

Our gym was pretty busy, training 6 fighters and have 4 of them fighting? Insane. Well for us ... Our gym is still pretty good, and we're getting some good equipment now that we make some good money. Danielsson, Vinter and Gabe look to rebound while Carl looks to defend his belt for the first time in the ABC.

PREL - FLY - Sam DANIELSSON vs. Fred BARNETT

Fred is a very experienced martial artist with a background in Muay Thai---The Preliator Flyweight division is filled with killers but I believe Danielsson can rebound after his loss to Song. His, and our gym's, second fight in the 2nd best organization in the world of MMA.

"Don't let Fred take the fight to the clinch, get underhooks and drags his ass to the ground. Fix for the submission, Sammy Boy."Look, Sam didn't do too bad in the clinch there but Fred has nearly 40 fights of experience and I don't want to fight his game.

AWFUL! Danielsson got dominated but I started to get worried about this. More than usual. Sammy boy looked demotivated and hasn't been the same since his second loss to Song, he needs to re-ignite his flame because.. One more L and he is getting sent back to the ABC organization. Maybe I was too hasty getting him here.

JSCRAP - FW - Ernest WATKINS vs. Charlie VINTER

Charlie just lost his title and will be looking to get it back, but for now he'll need to prepare for the NEXT bout. A combat sambo fighter with great wrestling ability. Should be an easy fight though, and perhaps Vinter can crack him good.

Charlie doesn't start the round off well at all, eating a fist and then getting taken down with a large thud. Vinter makes a few mistakes on the ground, but luckily enough Watkins can't get anything done so we're in the stand up once more. However, it doesn't last long as Ernest executes a trip and the fight goes down. Charlie gets peppered with some shots before trying to lock in an achilles lock--Vinter forces his way out. He needs to stand and bang with his striking, not a good look. Charlie tries to defend the strikes from Watkins but has a mental lapse-- Giving up his neck and being forced to tap with only a few seconds left on the clock.
