The brother of the great Simba "The Dog" Burns(Simba Burns). Simba Jr has stepped up to the MMA scene after becoming the youngest kick-boxing Champion ever at age 17. He has a kickboxing record of 130-3-1 with 91 KO's and is the 2011, and 2013 & NEW 2015 World K-1 Grand Prix Winner. He is a World-Class Athlete and often runs triathlons and trains with the Diaz brothers in California. Bone Thugz is his favorite group, and knocking people out is his favorite thing.

His career started by Knocking out K-1 Champion Tenz Jangho who was unbeaten at 34-0. Burns Jr challenged the long time Champion when he had a record of 25-2.

The reigning Champion Jangho is hurt and is down for the count, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.

Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:46 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Simba Burns Jr!
Simba Burns Jr is the new light heavyweight champion!

At age 21, he made his MMA debut. He started out at 8-2 while continuing to focus more on K-1. With an MMA record of 9-3 he signed with CWFL. He lost 3 decisions in a row due to his lack of wrestling and ground game. He retired briefly and continued his K-1 career, winning the 2011 & 2013 K-1 Grand Prix and defended his LHW Title 17 times before moving up to Heavyweight to fight Longtime Champion Don Marciano in an MMA/K-1 special rules fight. In their rematch, which shows up on their K-1 records, Burns Jr redeemed the loss by decision 3 months afterwards. He retired from K-1 after that fight, he holds a record of 130-3-1 and recently won the 2015 K-1 Grand Prix by beating Rocky Tyson by knockout in the finals, a rematch of their earlier MMA split decision bout.

Burns Jr is 20-7 since training MMA full time and taking it seriously. His first run in BMP he went 3-1, and then scored 3 stunning comeback KO victories in a row in CFC in Montreal. He then lost the MMA/K-1 special rules superfight to Don Marciano by close decision. Burns Jr then KO'd Magabo and was then robbed by split decision after dominating Nikolai Kovalenko. Simba Jr then Knocked out Simon Williams(the reigning BMP Champion). Doomsday Drost then had his title taken by Burns Jr and Simba defended it twice successfully Knocking out Kovelenko getting revenge by headkick and taking out his training partner Garik Harlamov.

 

Simba also won the CFC Light Heavyweight Title beating Luu Viulu with a shocking KO in their rematch.

 

 

He will go down as one of the GREATEST FIGHTERS EVER. He was the most dominating and longest reigning Champion in K-1 history. He holds 90 of his wins by knockout.

 

Kovalenko misses with an uppercut
and Kovalenko takes a counter punch right on the button for his troubles.
Kovalenko drops his hands momentarily and Burns Jr needs no second invitation. He sets himself and throws a perfect high kick, that clips Kovalenko just on the top of the head. Kovalenko drops like a sack of potatoes to the canvas, out cold! Oooooooh yeah! Stick a fork in Kovalenko - he's done!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:38 of round 2, we have a winner by way of KO (Head Kick). Simba Burns Jr!
Simba Burns Jr retains his super heavyweight title!
Post fight, Simba Burns Jr took to the microphone: 'I'm not back, because I never left.. You know the line.. But I have the title now! I love my brother Simba Burns and the whole Burns family who helped me win this fight. And my partners the Diaz bros thanks for the help guys. I GOT that Belt finally!'.

Simba Burns Jr


"My next fight is at Ascension 343: The End. In London on 9/11/2015. Floyd Johnson
is my worthy opponent. He is coming off a KO win over a touch guy I beat twice, Luu Viulu. I am proud to be able to fight in Ascension before it closes it's doors and starts a new Chapter in CEC. I will score the KO victory, and I will be Champion again before I retire. I have plenty of fight left in me. It's bone and biggie biggie."

My next opponent is

Fritzie "The Croatian Comet" Zivic (146462) http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/22/22w9.jpg



Fight happens in 8 days, vs #32 ranked P4P Zivic.


Burns Jr "Zivic and I agreed to fight awhile ago and it just never came to happen. I just lost 2 fights and thought Zivic had the right to not fight me. But he took the fight immediately even with the hype difference and I can't thank him and his manager enough for giving me this opportunity.

I can't say I will win for sure, all I can do is do everything I can.. My last fight with Floyd i'm very mad at myself for, I didn't fight like I can and I won't make that mistake again. Zivic and his hype make this a must win for me and I plan on shocking the world again and making my comeback.

Good luck Zivic, may one of us fall and we avoid crummy judges."

Simba Burns Jr

"Training has been well, I'm still improving. Zivic humbled me. I thought it was close, but I knew I had lost the fight after the 5th round came. I just didn't perform like I know I can,

I have now re-signed with BMP, and I am facing a man I knocked out, Simon Williams. He is now the reigning BMP Champion and he has my Title. He is a tough opponent but I will return to my dominance, there's no other option.

I will be Champion again, mark my words. The date of the fight is to be announced on the 17th."

Well Burns Jr has outworked and out performed his opponent in all aspects of the game today. He was simply too good and the decision should be no more than a formality. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.


Ladies and gentlemen, after 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Illya Tyunina scores the fight 46:49
Judge Ivan Kurochkin scores the fight 46:49
Judge Vladimir Khabensky scores the fight 46:49

In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Simba Burns Jr!


Simba Burns Jr is the NEW SUPER HEAVYWEIGHT Champion!

An intense looking Simba Burns Jr took to the microphone post fight and gave a little speech: 'much respect to Williams and his manager and this organization for this special opportunity. I knew I just had to go all out from round 1, no excuses I had this time around. Thanks to everyone for coming.'


Post fight interview highlights from Simba Jr

- "Couldn't be happier to have this belt back around my waist, feels perfect."

- "Williams is tough but I have his number, I KO'd him the first time and this time he was hard to KO, but he couldn't even hit me all night, I felt great considering I had a terrible flight and had minimal energy. I'm shocked I was fresh for the first 20 minutes. Last round was the only round he kept close."

- "I think myself & Kovelenko have another tango awaiting.."

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:50 of round 3, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Simba Burns Jr!
Simba Burns Jr retains his super heavyweight title!


Simba Burns Jr did it again. Standing 5'9" and weighing in at 190lbs, Simba again showed no meaning to the word "Size Difference". His 250lbs, 6'7" opponent was stepping into the cage with Burns Jr for the 4th time, and again, Burns Jr showed the world why he is the best K-1 fighter to ever live.

Simba Jr once again dominated the fight, taking the first two rounds easily, making Kovelenko break and gas out. He could barely walk or stand up after the multiple leg and body kicks landed by Burns Jr and it was too much. Not expecting punches, Burns Jr used his rare punching power instead of his trademark Head Kick KO. Burns Jr defends his BMP Title once again.

6 months ago Simba Burns Jr vacated his World K-1 Heavyweight Championship due to no contenders. With the K-1 Supermax HW Eliminator Tournament winner getting their first Title defense against the man who vacated it, Simba Burns Jr.

The World K-1 Light-heavyweight Champion Edgar Bernardo from South Africa became the LHW and HW K-1 Two division World Champion after winning the Supermax Tournament, winning all 4 by TKO/KO before round 3.

Last month Simba Burns Jr announced he would fight Jon Hess in MMA on December 11th, and then would make a quick turn around on the 17th and fight Edgar Bernardo for a double Title match-up for both LHW and HW World K-1 Titles.

Burns said before the fight "I have no injuries, Hess beat me up but I get beat up everyday in training as well. I will get my HW Title back, I didn't lose it, and the LHW Title will be a nice trophy as well. Bernardo is young & a great fighter, but I'll catch him." He has a kickboxing record of 136-3-1 with 96 KO's and is the 2011, and 2013 & NEW 2015 World K-1 Grand Prix Winner.


Bernardo said Pre-Fight that "I came to win, I'm much younger at 28 years of age and I'm in my prime, I defended my LHW Belt a record 13 times and my only two defeats I redeemed. The only man I have yet to beat is Simba Burns Jr, and I will surpass him as the greatest." He has a kickboxing record of 59-1 with 51 KO's and is the 2012, and 2014 & NEW 2015 SuperMax HW Tourney Winner.

LIVE RESULTS AND PLAY BY PLAY

R1

Jeff Steelle is the referee in charge of the Main Event Double Title fight.
Bernardo comes out swinging as usual, with left and right hands and an occasional hard kick slamming into Burns Jr's legs, ribs and head. Burns playing cautious here as he lands some hard inside leg kicks followed by a left high kick which stuns Bernardo and his legs go wobbly for a second. Burns pressures but backs off as he realizes Bernardo has the size and reach advantage and is still dangerous. More big punches and kicks winging from Bernardo, mostly all miss as Burns backpedals landing semi hard kicks to the inside of Bernardo's leg as the round closes. 10-10

R2

Again Bernardo comes out chasing, not worried about being countered by the shorter man. He stalks, and hits Burns with a 3 punch combo ended with a kick to the gut. A right hand and a left snap Burns' head back as he smiles and says "bring it on".. Burns sticks his chin right out and lets Bernardo fire away with 2 right hands and a missed left high kick that has Burns laughing and throwing his own off balance high kick and falls to his backside. 1 minute left and Bernardo still stalking before missing with a huge left that Burns times perfectly, countering with a right hand followed by a left low kick and right teep kick from Burns that has Bernardo backpedaling. With 7 seconds left in the round, Burns Jr lands a vicious liver kick that drops Bernardo, he beats the 10 count and round 2 ends. 10-8 Burns Jr.

R3

Burns Jr smells blood from the previous liver kick and goes straight at Bernardo who fires back hard, landing a big right that clips Burns Jr and looks to have hurt him, but when Bernardo steps into the pocket Burns catches him with another left kick to the body and Bernardo covers up and bulls forward throwing straight punches now. Burns again counters with a left body kick and then looks low but goes high with the right leg. Bernardo gets caught with the huge head kick while he was protecting his ribs and he goes stiff, his legs are gone and as he quickly gets to his feet he cannot stand, and falls into the ropes and onto the canvas again.

Vicious, Amazing Highlight reel KO for Burns to become Two Division World Champion!

"I see the fight being him backpedaling trying to counter my shots, but it won't happen, I'm the best pure striker in the world and I proved it over and over again. Zeller will be my next victim then I will go fight K-1 again and defend my Belts there."

Breaking. News.

Simba Jr has defeated Bronze Medalist Cody Zeller by dominating 5 round decision that left the audience feeling happy and like they got their money's worth.

Simba Jr was a man of a few words post fight, saying..

"Thanks Cody Zeller, thank you UPG, my sponsors, coaches, all my fans I love you."

He followed up by yelling into the mic - "Zivic my friend, I love ya dog but we have unfinished business, our first fight was too close for me to stop chasing, and I feel I've earned it. Let's do it man, #2 let's give the world what it wants to see. I want your belt."


Manager Bradley Burns said the match up is a possibility but it lies completely in the hands of fate, manager Beadley said..

"Listen, Simba Jr wants Zivic, I couldn't care less about Zivic right now myself. I just want to see him win a belt, and prove to everyone again why he's the best striker in history. Zivic may come, but Zivic can choose any fight he wants and we have to respect him as the Champion and throne holder. Plus we already have offers flooding through but we only are really considering one offer if the Zivic matchup is not made.. And yes it's a top 4 org, no doubt, we've had many previous discussions so it may happen after a long time coming..Thanks for letting me speak guys. I'm out."



Simba did say he is focused for his two scheduled outside Tycoon bouts taking place February 9th, & 18th, in Singapore & a home-coming bout in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada respectively both are scheduled to be Title bouts.



More news soon to come, thanks for all the support.

2016-02-19 http://mmatycoon.com/images/tinybelt.gif VS. Fritzie Zivic 2!

With the rematch with Zivic booked and set to go on Feb 19th, Simba Jr fought at the "GREAT 8 SUPERMAX EVENT" on Feb 9th which happens only once a year and is the biggest K-1 event in outside the MMATycoon World.

Simba Burns Jr is the reigning 205, & 265 SuperMax Champion.


Burns faced Tanor "Duko" Muhammad(55-3, 50 KO's K-1 Record) who is the #1 HW contender and on a 19 fight win streak, with 18 of those by KO. At 6'9, 245lbs, he dwarfs his 5'9 opponent Simba Burns, but Simba Jr is very used to that by now. This fight went down in Singapore in front of a loaded sold out house of 70,000 fans.

READ THE PLAY BY PLAY HERE LIVE:

We have 5, 3 minute Championship rounds.

ROUND 1

Burns comes out with a few hard leg kicks, chopping at the bigger mans legs. Burns circling a lot here as Muhammad stalks him, front kick x2 by Tanor Muhammad which has Burns Jr moving out of range. Slow start to this round as both men respect each-other. Left for Muhammad lands, then a right uppercut and teep kick to the jaw of Burns finds the mark as the Tanor seems to be finding his range now, landing more front kicks to the body and occasional hard punch. The round ends with both men trading heavy hands in the last 10 seconds which Tanor comes out on top of. 10-9 Muhammad.

Round 2.

Round 2 begins quickly as Burns clinches his way inside to land a few knees to the body and left hands. Muhammad lands a knee to the head and an elbow that stops Burns in his tracks and they break, but mid way as Burns is moving back he charges forward with his own brutal elbow which lands flush on Muhammad's nose, looking like it's now broken after gushing with blood. Burns Jr smells it and starts firing away with kicks, punches, knee's and elbows but Muhammad survives and smiles, waving Burns Jr forward saying he wants more. The two fire away for the last 20 seconds with both men landing good shots. 10-9 Simba Burns Jr.

Round 3

Burns Jr comes out now looking for more blood, throwing with reckless intent as Muhammad has to backpedal. Burns Jr lunges in but gets clipped from outside with a perfect counter left hook that sends him to the deck face first, he looks momentarily out but beats the count at 9 and the referee lets the fight continue. Burns Jr moving, being chased by the bigger man, but managing to avoid any clean shots and gain his senses back. Muhammad lands another clean left hook out of nowhere's and Burns drops to a knee. Burns beats the count at 8 to hear the end of the round. 10-7 Muhammad.

Round 4.

Muhammad charging forward this time to start the round, landing teep kicks and the odd leg kick, but Burns Jr avoiding it well but not able to land anything meaningful of his own for the first minute of the round. Both fighters look tired now after those grueling and entertaining first 3 rounds. Head kick lands for Muhammad, and a knee, another knee and right hand send Burns Jr to the floor again, dazed and bloody, but he again beats the count at 8.

30 seconds left in the round and Muhammad is trying for the finish, but Burns Jr slips a big punch and lands a massive head kick that puts Muhammad on the floor, flat on his back, reaching for the sky as the bell for the end of the 4th round sounds. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. Muhammad could not make the count and remains on the floor for several minutes. AMAZING COMEBACK FOR BURNS JR, unreal fight & ending.

WINNER: SIMBA BURNS JR KO 4th(0:00) To retain his SUPERMAX HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!

2016-02-19 http://mmatycoon.com/images/tinybelt.gif VS. Fritzie Zivic 2!

INTERVIEW.

First off, congrats on a huge win over the Olympic Bronze Medalist, and another amazing K-1 KO win. We're one week out from you vs Zivic 2, this time for CEC Gold, how good does it feel to get another crack at him, and have added Gold on the line this time?

Simba - "Thanks, and yeah I'm pumped, me and Zivic are buddies and we've trained and sparred together a lot. He's an awesome Champion and CEC Gold is the most precious and prestigious prize in the MMA world.

Zivic poses problems for me, I feel like, at a pure striking stand-point, with just K-1 rules i'd beat him 10/10 times but with MMA so many things can happen unexpectedly with these small gloves and other weapons to use.. You never know who will win in MMA. He's talented and experienced.

The first fight happened in AD, he was Champion but a Non-Title 5 round fight, that went to a very close decision, what happened in that fight that will be different in this fight, or will anything even be different? Zivic NEVER NEEDS decisions, neither do you, why did this fight, which won FOTN btw go the distance with such heavy hitters?

Burns Jr - "I feel as if the fight was very close, but he probably deserved the nod. I was coming off 2 losses before that fight and i wasn't in good shape mentally. I was very happy I kept it close and survived when I got hurt. We were both going for the KO but I think my chin is better overall. The guy has it all, just like I do, and although he has boxing advantage, my kicks are lethal and my game is improving everyday in every way. This fight will be different because I am in a good place now, and I'm more ready than ever, great game-plan and amazing people still around me. I want that CEC Title."

He is 3-0 since the fight with Burns Jr with all 3 by way of KO, and has earned his wanted rematch with Burns Jr. He has a kickboxing record of 62-2 with 54 KO's and is the 2012, and 2014 & NEW 2015 SuperMax HW Tourney Winner.

LIVE PLAY BY PLAY.

ROUND 1.

Frantic pace from the opening bell, as Bernardo walks forward with a cross and a few teep kicks to keep Burns on the ropes, big left from Bernardo snaps Burns Jr's head back but Burns fires back with a front teep kick to the knee which has Bernardo backing up and hobling on his left knee, trying to protect it desperately. Bernardo keeps firing looping punches off, keeping Burns Jr at bay, trying to land kicks on the taller man who stand 6 inches taller at 6'3". 1 minute left both men start firing away with punches in the pocket, both landing hard and
Burns Jr partially lands a massive head kick followed by a straight left hand, but Bernardo counters with a huge overhand right that has Burns face planted on the canvas. Burns Jr is VERY wobbley and barely makes the count at 9 to hear the final bell which has surely saved him.

ROUND 2.

Round 2 starts with Burns Jr still looking out of it completely. Bernardo backs Burns Jr up and starts firing shots as Burns Jr is dodging against the ropes. Bernardo gets careless and Burns Jr counters a missed uppercut with a head kick from hell, but Bernardo only hits his knees and is up quickly and takes the 8 count. Burns starts firing away with more strikes, landing another devistating liver kick follows by front knee teep again which has Bernardo getting angry. Burns Jr throws a lethal spinning back to the knee of Bernardo, the Famous "HUG TORNADO" kick, and Bernardo is down and in serious pain.. He won't get up and Simba Burns Jr makes a successful K-1 homecoming and re-tains both HW and LHW Titles. What a crazy fight.

Since we last checked with Simba Burns Jr, he had dominated real world K-1 and was re-matching Zivic for the CEC LHW Title. The fight again was very close, but Zivic got the UD now.

 

Soon after, Burns Jr announced he MIGHT retire but was quickly offered a fight in CEC against top world class fighter, Shogun Aye. Simba Jr was a 4/1 underdog and Aye had slick submission skills and great power. Simba Jr stunned Aye and halted his momentum with a dominating Unanimous Decision win, using a different gameplan, smarter and experienced in MMA Burns Jr avoided the ground and busted Aye up on the feet where he wanted to keep the fight.

 

Next up was 16-2 Sergej "Project Alpha" Valentinovich (235645). Dean Sutherland's best young fighter. Again Burns Jr was a big underdog, 6/1 this time against the 27 year old KO machine. Simba Jr was confident before the fight saying "I'm telling you, if he stands with me, his only chance is a lucky shot because I'm a different striker than he's ever faced, no manager in the world can set his game plan to beat me on this night."

 

After 3 rounds, Simba Jr had done it again. 30-27 on all scorecards with Burns avoiding his opponents main power shots while showcasing his granite chin. By the middle of round 2, Valentinovich could barley stand on his left leg, Simba Jr continued to target the leg and picked apart his younger counterpart until the end of round 3, where Valentinovich barely survived.

 

 

 

Next up came another crack at the CEC Light Heavyweight Championship, his long time goal. The reigning Champion was Trevor Reznick (231860), who had just defeated Fritzie Zivic by Devistating KO to take his belt. Burns Jr called for a Title shot and was granted it. Reznick was a 4/1 favourite as odds makers still didn't fully believe Simba Burns Jr could win top fights in MMA, but he did it again, avoiding all Reznicks power punches and picking the Champion apart thoughout 5 rounds.

 

50-45, NEW CHAMPION, SIMBA BURNS JR.

 

SIMBA JR IS THE NEW CEC LHW CHAMPION!

Simba Burns Jr now faces undefeated fighter and former #1 P4P Tommy Grunge. If Simba wins, his #15 P4P rank will greatly improve.

 

Burns Jr is making his first Title defence. His long awaited journey of winning the CEC Title happened when he beat Reznick.

 

Tommy Grunge is well known for being undefeated, but more well known for being a protected fighter. He left the sport of K-1 early and has hand picked MMA opponents in many orgs. He will finally step up the the #1 P4P K-1 fighter and #15 P4P in MMA Simba Burns Jr, and put his undefeated record on the line against his first elite test in his career. Props to Grunge for stepping up finally.

 

 

Simba Burns Jr is looking to be Bradley Burns' first top 10 P4P fighter ever.
