CG - LW - Kevin LJUNG vs. Paul HARRIS

An Australian with a 1-2 record out of Pacifica Sportfighting would be Kevin's third opponent. This match would essentially decide his fate at this point. Should I pull him aside and tell him that MMA might not be the career for him? Despite starting at a young age, Kevin did study kinesiology and has the credentials to be a proper personal trainer-- Just look at his body, Kevin is SHREDDED.

"Great fucking timing Kevin, he didn't see it coming. Just be patient and DO NOT get caught. Be very careful out there and methodical." I took the same approach as I take with Carl here since I need him to play safe and for the judges. Kevin doesn't have Carl's chin but he is quite skilled.

Kevin Ljung wins by Submission (Armbar)

Kevin extends his MMA career with this victory, and I am very PROUD that he was able to pull out the win. Kevin has to be feeling good about himself now, and hopefully those knock outs he suffered early came down to bad luck. I'm PRAYING! Anyways, signed a three fight extension with Cage Fighters and hope to do some good things.


JSCRAP - BW - Vacancy - Gabe ANDERSSON vs. Steve SIMMONS

Gabe gets yet another JungleScrap title fight and let me tell you ... It's his 8th title shot and he has yet to win one yet. Gabe just hasn't had the gas tank to last him a bit. I am a bit happy it's against Simmons, who we fought a bit back and Gabe actually submitted him. This could be a bit different given it's 5 rounds, so here we go. Me and Charlie fucking MADE SURE this Vegan clown didn't hit up the beach and forced this dumbass to train. Will it be enough? I hope so man.

Gabe "Vegan Surfer" Andersson wins by Submission (Rear Naked Choke)

I ... I can't believe it. Gabe put in the hard work and finally got rewarded. Andersson was in tears when he took a hold of the belt ... Could it be that he actually truly cares about mixed martial arts and isn't just some surfing beach bum? God damn it Gabe, you're going to make me cry too.

Got a call from ABC that they are interested in Gabe should he win his next title defense. It would be massive for Gabe if he held onto the title once, and it's about time he graduates from the Jscrap organization. It took him nearly 25 fights but this experience can only help him. If he loses? Probably back to Jscrap so he can develop his fundamentals.
