I am putting out a open challenge to any 170lb fighter who want to get knocked out in under a minute by my fighter Luke Vader. He has won 6 of his last 7 fights and is ready to kick someone else's ass. Hopefully the next victim can make him break a sweat

Balink Tarlah about his next fight:

- I am not here to make trash talks like the boys from here. I will do my best to win my next fight and I will try to respect my oponent as much as I can, if he will not respect me is no problem for me because I will tko him very well. I don t like games, big talk games with big stupid idiots that pretend something. Everybody can loose, I loose with Conor and? I try to improve myself and I will show my training next fight. I repeat myself, respect the sport and the oponent if he want to, if not crush him.

Hardcore Bloodbath Entertainment Presents:


HFC 10 - Kung Vs Rodrigues


Organization: HARDCORE Fighting Championship

Date: 21 Mar 2020

City: Montreal (14:00 GMT)

Arena: Hayashi's Lounge - Montreal (2,000)

Rules: MMA

Ring/Cage: Cage

Judging System: 10 point must

Merchandise Partner: Threads of HARDCORE


Main Event:


Manolito Tai Kung (6-0) Vs Samuel Rodrigues (8-0) (Welterweight Title Fight)


Our main event, for the HFC Welterweight Championship of the World, features two excellent fighters who have never tasted the bitterness of defeat. Two men who are gladiators, warriors, champions. One man holds the gold, wears the crown, and welcomes the challenge. The other is hungry, focused, and been on a tear. Something has to give in this fight, someone has to lose. Only one many can walk away with the belt.

Our challenger, coming in at 6 wins and 0 losses, undefeated 21 year old out of the Philippines, following in Manny's footsteps, is Manolito Tai Kung. A very versatile fighter, Kung displays some excellent striking skills as he is well versed in both MT and boxing. He's been known to handle himself well on the ground too by making good use of his wrestling and purple BJJ belt.


Undefeated in his first 4 professional HFC fights (3 as SMASH), Kung has fought his way to the top and has earned his shot at the gold. The man is hunger, and will give everything he has to walk away a champion.


And standing in his way, reigning undisputed, undefeated, HFC Welterweight Champion of the World, Samuel Rodrigues!!!


At 26 years old, Rodrigues has been around the block. He's put down every man who's ever stepped in front of him and has finished 7 of his 8 fights, and each of his professional MMA fights, by way of submission.


Rodrigues is not a striker, he loathes being on his feet in the cage. Fortunately, he has displayed, time and again, the ability to take the fight to the ground. Once this man is on the ground with his opponent, the fight is over. He's never walked away from a professional fight without forcing his opponent to tap out. Quite an accomplishment these days.


This fight has all the makings of a "keep ya on your toes" showdown, but could easily be over in a matter of seconds. With Rodrigues' dominant ground game and ability to finish, and Kung's ability to KO, either fighter could walk away with a win in the first round. With that being said, Kung's training on the ground could make it difficult for Rodrigues to lock in a submission, and will give him a chance if the fight goes to the ground. If this fight stays standing, Kung will be walking away with the belt.


Rickson Silva (3-0) Vs Joseph Jantan (12-5) (Middleweight)


When you look at the tale of the tape, this fight doesn't appear to be much more than a pushover fight between the more experienced and accomplished Jantan and the new blood, Silva. Jantan, 27, with an impressive record overshadows the undefeated Silva. But Silva is a talented fighter who's been in the gyms doing work, and his brief fight history shows that he is skilled, ready, and very capable of holding his own against Jantan.


Jantan holds an impressive 12-5 record, having spent most of his time on the islands. Now, in the mainlands, he lost his HFC debut fight to Dixon Ulster at HFC 5 and is looking to bounce back like he always does. Coming off his first ever back to back losses, you can bet that Jantan will be looking to finish this fight in highlight fashion.


His wonderful wrestling skills and his purple belt in BJJ will be what he relys upon in this fight, but he will definitely have his work cut out for him against the black belt Silva.


His opponent, Silva, is undefeated in his young career. With a 3-0 record, Silva has displayed some amazing ground skills. His ability to grapple is bolstered by his remarkable wrestling skills, and not to mention, Silva is BJJ black belt.


All three of Silva's fights have ended with his opponent tapping out, and he's faced a Gracie from CEC, and two tough opponents from the HFC in Tau and Happiest. This fight will almost surely go to the ground, but if I'm Jantan, I may be exploring tactics to give me an edge in this fight because thought he's a slightly better wrestler than Silva, Silva's BJJ skills are far superior to Jantan"s and I just can't see how Jantan walks away from this fight with a win.


This fight would make the TWGC fans oooh and awe, so make sure you tune in to catch these two main events.


Borris the Blade (6-1) Vs Jorge Galvao (3-1) (Middleweight)


Blade is a great striker, with heavy training in MT. He started his career with an impressive 6-0 record before being submitted in his last fight by Ralo Gracie in HFC 6. Despite the loss, Blade is still confident in his abilities to knock out his opponent as he has in each of his previous fights before that loss. He'll be looking to jump back into the win column and get back to his KO ways when he steps into the cage against Galvao.


Galvao has an impressive 3-1 record in his young career and is also looking to secure a win. He's riding a 2 fight win streak and will no doubt be looking to take this fight to the ground to have a chance against Blade. Rumors out of his gym are that Galvao hasn't trained with the same intensity he's used to, and they think a win here could really bolster his moral.


This fight is simple.. if it stays standing, Blade will end this fight with a first round KO. But if Galvao can get this fight to the ground, his brown belt in BJJ will be the difference and he will most likely find a way to submit Blade.


Balink Tarlah (2-1) Vs John Henry (4-0) (Lightweight)


Tarlah comes into this fight with a 2-1 record, his only loss to heavy handed Conor Butcher in HFC championship series tournament. He bounced back in his next fight and defeated Taylor in the second round, but decided to drop out of the tournament to focus on training. Now, he steps back into the cage again, only 1 day after the tournament finale that he could have potentially been a part of, to face undefeated John Henry. Tarlah is a wonderful wrestler with basic boxing skills and a blue belt in BJJ. He will need to utilize those skills against his opponent Henry.


Henry is a wonderful MT striker with some solid defensive wrestling skills. Undefeated through 4 fights, and coming off a win in his last fight, his debut match against Togachi Nakamoto at HFC Fight Night 4, Henry will be looking to KO Tarlah as well.


This will be an interesting fight to see how Tarlah adjusts to his opponent to try and get this win. We know Henry will be coming out looking to end the fight early, but Tarlah is essentially a wild card in this fight.


Undercards:


Mild Paplano Vs Vico Firenze (Lightweight)

Victor Frost Vs Brock Means (Heavyweight)

Vince Hollaway Vs Henry Wang (Middleweight)

Boris Balkan Vs Gumby Lane (Heavyweight)

Bobby Finland Vs Julius Reed (Heavyweight)

Tun Tun Kho Sitsongrit Vs Togachi Nakamoto (Lightweight)

HFC Tournament Finals - Review


This was the final round for the HFC Championship and Contender series tournaments (predating HFC/SMASH merger) with the exception of the Middleweight division which had the semi-final round.


A huge shout out to all of these warriors for hanging through this tournament, despite all of the hurdles thrown our way with the merger. Some of these fighters have developed very well and flipped the script from underdog to favorite over the course of this tournament.


Main Event: Jack Waller vs Mystic Marley


To headline this round of the tournament was a bantamweight fight between Jack Waller (6-0) and Mystic Marley (7-1). I fully expected this to be a good fight between two great fighters, but these men went at it with everything they had, and what a fight they put on to cap the night!


Waller, former HFC (pre merger) champion, with two successful title defenses under his belt, only to part ways with the belt as the two rosters merged together. With some seller fights and his ability to come out on top time and again, he has remained a champion in his mind, in his heart, and in my eyes. Waller is a future HFC hall of famer, which is a bold statement for a fighter who's only appeared in now 7 fights.


His opponent, Mystic Marley, is another 7 win fighter who is fighting for the contenders spot in the rankings. An impressive 6-0 start, Marley has now lost 2 of his last 3 fights after tonight's loss to Waller.


This fight took the entire 3 rounds and went to the judges for a decision. These two strikers put on a show as Marley was the more aggressive fighter but often looked to take the fight to the clinch where he became a different fighter. Both of these fighters displayed some excellent striking defense, but the big difference in the fight was Marley's inability to get the fight to the ground.


Waller was just under 50% accuracy in his strikes, both in the clinch and in space. Marley was significantly less accurate, but when he got the fight in the clinch, he kept it there. In only 4 clinch encounters, Marley threw 68 strikes and attempted 29 takedowns where Waller threw 20 strikes and stuffed every last takedown attempt.


The judges often will give the win to the more aggressive fighter, even if they don't land as many strikes. In this fight, however, the see 29 failed takedown attempts and stopped looking at everything else. I have seen time and again where Waller has thwarted highly skilled opponents at every turn, taking them the distance and getting a win if he is over matched, or strait knocking them on their ass if not.


The day draws near where Waller will be looking for a title shot, and he has well earned that chance to recapture his title of Champion of the HFC. Marley may even be ring side, smoking a blunt, cheering him on. After a fight like this, there's always a level of respect in each fighter for the other.


And now for the tournament fights and results!


135 Tournament Final: Lorenzo Bataglia vs Hale Stenburg


In the Bantamweight division final, Bataglia 4-1 faced off against Stenburg (5-1) to see who could wear the honors of tournament champion. Two great young fighters with promising futures, but only one could reign supreme this night!


Stenburg was the favorite going into this fight, but was completely dominated by Bataglia. Though the fight took all three rounds and ended by a decision, at no point in time was Stenburg ever winning the fight. Bataglia came out far more aggressive, landing 49 of 73 strikes standing while Stenburg only managed to land 3 shots to the body and a couple of quick combos. Stenburg seemed hell bent on taking the fight into the clinch, but Bataglia avoided the clinch well thwarting all but 6 of the 62 clinch attempts by Stenburg. See, I told you he was hell bent on taking the fight to the clinch..


When the fight did go to the clinch it didn't seem to matter much to Bataglia as he landed 80% of his strikes from the clinch as well and only got hit once. Bataglia's striking defense has improved greatly, and his accuracy was impressive too.


Not to much else to say about this fight, congratulations to Bataglia for winning the tournament!


145 Tournament Final: Preston Patterson vs Sonny Gilchrist


In our featherweight finale, front runner Sonny Gilchrist (6-1)took on Preston Patterson (3-2)in a rematch of their round two bout where Gilchrist took the win. But Patterson didn't take the loss lightly and came back to win the rest of his matches in this double elimination tournament and found himself in the finale against Gilchrist with a chance to get revenge for that loss.


I don't think anyone in the arena expected Patterson to have a chance in this one, Sonny has been on a tear in the HFC and hasn't looked back for anyone. Having already defeated Patterson, perhaps Gilchrist looked past him, but Patterson was not to be taken lightly tonight.


Gilchrist had no problem taking the fight to the ground, nor to the clinch, nor to the ground from clinch. The man is a ground specialist, and nothing has changed. But what did change was the fight once it got to the ground. Normally, Gilchrist will finish a fight within seconds of taking it to the ground, but Patterson was ready for it this time.


Unlike last time, Patterson was able to show the better ground game and was able to improve his positioning when Gilchrist attempted a kimura from the bottom, allowing Patterson a chance to lock in a kimura of his own. And lock it in he did as he forced Gilchrist to tap out. Patterson displayed his displeasure with the rankings after the fight, and has earned himself a shot at the title with this victory.


Excellent job Preston, show the world what being HARDCORE is all about!!


185 Tournament Runner up Final: Rod Stickmann vs Kelly William


This fight was a little different as this bracket was the only one who played out a loser bracket to completion. With Baruto Tonissaar winning the tournament, Stickmann proved he was the next best thing as he won every other fight in the tournament.


Coming into this fight at 4-1, and his only loss to Stickmann earlier in the tournament, William still had to be confident he could get the job done against Stickmann. But once again, Stickmann dominated the fight. Though dominating the fight while standing in space, Stickmann took a little damage when William landed a couple of nasty elbows in the clinch and ultimately took the fight to the ground where neither fighter could seem to gain any traction.


Once on the ground, neither fighter displayed much until Stickmann landed a big right that dropped William to a knee and then like a pit bull Stickmann laid it on and William tapped out to get the ref to stop the fight giving Stickmann the win by submission via strikes!


205 Tournament Final: Dillon Van Barle vs Tashiro Sugawara


For our light heavyweight division finale, former HFC champion Sugawara squared off against Van Barle for their shot at HFC glory. Both fighters are hard to KO, both versed in BJJ, and both know how to win. This was not the expected finale, but not at all a surprise either.


Sugawara was a heavy favorite entering the tournament while Van Barle was a relative unknown. But after this tournament, Van Barle won't be an unknown anymore. In the first round, Van Barle opened up a cut on Sugawara and started targeting it.


Sugawara was completely outmatched in this fight as he was never able to get the fight to the ground. Not for lack of trying, but Van Barle kept the fight in the clinch where he was by far the superior fighter and stuffed all 8 of Sugawara's attempts to take the fight to the ground.


Once in the clinch, I don't think I've ever seen such a dominating performance. Landing 22/22 head punches, 12/12 body punches, 9/9 elbows, 9/9 knees to the head and 6/6 knees to the body, it's amazing Sugawara lasted as long as he did.


Shortly into the second round, after the doctors took a minute to check out Sugawara's cut, Van Barle again took the fight to the clinch and this time, only 27 seconds into the 2nd round, Van Barle landed a vicious upper cut that put Sugawara out. A few follow up strikes before the ref could jump in and stop the fight, and we have a new contender in the light heavyweight division.


Congratulations Van Barle!


170 Tournament Semi-Finals:


Samart Payakaroon vs Ryo Hamada


Two undefeated fighters squaring off for the chance to advance to the finals of the largest tournament bracket of all, the middleweight class. Hamada (3-0) brown belt BJJ artist and Samart Payakaroon (5-0) MT striker.


Once again, a couple of very talented fighters who did everything the could to not lose the fight. Payakaroon was the more aggressive fighter, mixing up his strikes very well, while Hamada just couldn't seem to get it going. Hamada did try to take the fight to the ground several times, but only managed to get it there 4 of his 17 attempts. Once he did get to the ground, he wasn't able to do much as Payakaroon did well to control the fight and fend off the submission attempts by Hamada with relative ease.


When it was all said and done, this one had to go to the judges score cards, but everyone in the arena knew who the winner was. Despite going the distance, Hamada may not be able to walk out of the arena on his own after this fight as Payakaroon punished his legs with an incredible 25/25 leg kicks. That's some Mirko Cro Cop stuff right there!


Winner by Unanimous decision... Samart Payakaroon!


Death Minister vs Toni Montana


And the other middleweight semi final fight, undefeated ground specialist Toni Montana taking on the the man from below, Death Minister.

At 6-1, and a heavy favorite to win the tournament, Toni Montana was in for a rude awakening. So much so, in fact, that I won't even waste my time recapping this fight. Death Minister whooped his ass for two and a half minutes, made him bleed, and put him into a new universe with a spinning back fist.


When Montana's eyes stopped rolling and his world came back into focus, he came back to being a free agent fighter who's manager walked out on him.


Great win by Death Minister, guess you really did send Montana's soul to hell.


So the Middleweight finale will be held next month as Death Minister will be facing Samart Payakaroon for the crown and chance to call out the champ!


Congratulations to all fighters, except Toni Montana, who I can only wish luck and hope that he finds a new manager with a little more patience to shape his young and still very bright future. Win or loss, you guys put on a hell of a show and are all HARDCORE, even if you did tap out from being punched...

HFC 11 - Slugs vs Gold


3-27-20

Montreal - Hayashi's Lounge

MMA 10 point must


Welcome to another edition of HBE presents as we take a look at our upcoming event, HFC 11 - Slugs vs Gold. This card is packed with some talented fighters and some exciting fights, so lets break down the action, shall we!


I am J.W. Hardman, and joining me today is my long time friend and colleague, Rey Gunn. Gunn is a former amateur MMA fighter who gave up fighting to be a coach at his gym in Montreal.


J.W. "Rey, thanks for being here today for the first of what I hope is many events we can dissect together."


Rey "Thanks J.W., it's a pleasure to be here. As you know, I'm a big fan of MMA and what you've done with the HARDCORE brand."


J.W. "Thanks Rey, but it's the fighters who make the HFC what it is today, I just have the pleasure of keeping them busy."


Rey "Umm.. J.W., you've got some brown stuff on your nose."


J.W. "Naw man, it's the truth. These guys pour it all out in the cage and I get to come and watch them throw down every week. It's a truly great experience for me and I love every minute of it."


Rey "So, we have a full slate of fights for this one I see, outside of the obvious headlining title bout, which fight are you most interested in seeing?"


J.W. "Well, I'm always excited to see all the fights. In my experience in the HFC, some of the fights between guys you've never heard of turn out to be the best. You can get wars between these guys, and sometimes there's some new talent that bursts onto the scene with a devastating KO or super fast submission victory. But really, I like any fight between two warriors who will beat the hell out of each other and keep fighting beaten and bloodied until one of them falls."


Rey "Yeah, you always were for the dramatic."


J.W. "It's not drama man, it's action, glorious bloody action."


Rey "Okay, so are you going to answer my question?"


J.W. "Honestly, this card was built on Gold vs Slugs, I think that fight has the makings to be the fight of the night. I know you said outside of that fight, but that fight just towers above the rest for me."


Rey "But..."


Li Qiang vs Julio Falcon


J.W. "But.. if I had to choose one of these fight's I was really looking forward to, I would probably say Li Qiang vs Julio Falcon. These fighters are starting to make a name for themselves. Qiang was on a tear in the islands but lost his last fight during the season ending tournament. He won the belt there, lost it his next fight, and then won it back in the rematch. He's battle tested and proven he's got championship blood in his veins. But we have never seen him fight in the HFC before, so we booked him against Julio Falcon who's a very solid fighter in his own right. Falcon is 2-2 since joining the HFC and has shown some flash in his ability to finish as he did when he KO'd Danny California or in his most recent fight, TKO'd Crabtree. One thing I can say about Falcon, and this fight, is it will not go the distance. These two are finishers, and Falcon has won or lost every fight by KO other than his first, which he lost by submission. He's never had a fight go a full three rounds."


Rey "Boy you're long winded.. I thought you didn't really have another favorite match?"


J.W. "No, I said I enjoy them all, but a title fight is always that much more intense."


Rey "When I look at this fight, I see two fighters who give it all for the W. Neither one seem to have any quit in them, and that's always a good quality in a fighter. Falcon is a very well rounded fighter, but he shines in his wrestling abilities. He can strike if he needs, but I think he will try to take this fight to the ground and use his grappling skills to take care of business."


J.W. "So you pick Falcon to win?"


Rey "Hold on now, I didn't say that. Falcon is a great fighter, but I think Qiang is just going to be too much for him to handle. He was impressive on the island and he's already had championship fight experience. He knows how to win, and he knows how to finish, and I think he'll do just that in this one."


J.W. "Yeah, I have to agree. Falcon holds a slight edge on the ground, but they are almost equally skilled on the ground, but Qiang is a superb boxer too, which is how I think he will finish the fight. I predict a KO victory for Qiang, but don't count out Falcon, he's crafty."


Rey "Didn't you just count him out?"


J.W. "Smart ass.. no, I don't think he'll win, but he's a HARDCORE fighter, anyone in the HFC always has a chance. We don't back down from hard fights here, we put the core into them."


Rey "That was lame J.W."


J.W. "Yeah, don't worry, these guys are used to it by now."


Rey "Okay, so lets talk about our title fight. I know you wanted to save it for the end, but as much as you talk the end may never come."


Gold vs Slugs


J.W. "What can I say, I'm enthusiastic about this! I truly love what I do. Gold vs Slugs, man, I can't wait!"


Rey "Other than this being a title fight, why do you look forward to it so much?


J.W. "What's not to love about this fight? Title fight, two fighters with a combined 15-2 record, both finishers, both beasts of men."


Rey "Yeah, I can't argue with that. I took some time to go watch each of these guys train and let me tell you, these men are focused. Slugs looks every bit the champ in there and I can tell you, he's going to be ready for this fight."


J.W. "Yeah, he's always ready. He has held the belt back on the island and won the belt in his HFC debut against Lug Luger, former HFC champion from the early days. Both of these fighters have championship DNA, and I expect nothing short of a spectacular fight here."


Rey "I almost forgot that Gold won the belt on the island too, right before the tournament. Man, this really is going to be a championship war. Bring it on!!"


J.W. "Who's your pick, Rey?"


Rey "Oh, that's easy. It's going to be a draw."


J.W. "What?...."


Rey "Hey, that way I don't have to pick a winner and I don't lose."


J.W. "No wonder why you quit MMA."


Rey "Low blow bro."


J.W. "Okay Rey, we're running out of time so lets go ahead and take a look at one more fight to break down before we shut this down for the night. We covered the title fight, and I chose one, so you're turn to choose which fight we look at."


Rey "So what, you're not going to pick a winner in the title fight?"


J.W. "Easy, the champ will win."


Rey "Current champ or former champ?"


J.W. "Yes..."


Rey "Like talking to a brick wall... Okay, so I was just looking over the card and there are some interesting match-ups here. It's a bit of a toss up for me as I think the Thompson vs Lawrence and Denisov vs Mne fights each have potential. "


J.W. "Yes, they do, as do a few others. So why do these stand out, or at least, why does one in particular stand out?"


Denisov vs Mne


Rey "Well, what stands out to me about the Denisov vs Mne fight is that on paper, it looks like a mismatch. Denisov is 3-5, I believe, while Mne is what, 8-5? Mne is far more experienced and has won as many fights as Denisov has had in his career. He's a grappler who was on a warpath leading to an 8-2 record before he hit a wall and is on a 3 fight losing streak. This is why it is interesting to me. Loser of 3 strait, moral at an all time low, and he's facing an opponent who's struggling to save his career. Honestly, I smell an upset alert."


J.W. "You think Denisov is going to defeat Mne??"


Rey "Well, he's HARDCORE, right? Of course he has a chance."


J.W. "you're too wishy washy, just pick a winner and roll with it."


Rey "It's hard to bet against Mne, but yeah, I think Denisov gets the upset here. He's a better boxer and wrestler than Mne is, so as long as he can avoid getting caught in a submission, I think we see a (T)KO victory for Denisov to bring his record up to 4-5."


J.W. "Wow, I can't say I expected that. You always talk about being right because of your experience in MMA, so I figured you would give Mne the same honors."


Rey "Yeah, and how many fights did I win? I may know more from being experienced, but doesn't always make me a better fighter than my opponent."


J.W. "I really think the 3 fight losing streak has gotten to Mne, but I would like to see him get a win here to pull out of that funk. He's got too much talent to keep spiraling down. But a win could also vault Denisov back in the right direction, so this will be a good fight to see which of these fighters have the best chance of turning things around."


Rey "Man, there are still a lot of fights left, J.W."


J.W. "Yeah, we spent a little too much time here already, so we'll have to skip detailed analysis on these fights, but lets go ahead and run em' down for our viewers."


Rey "Because you talk too much..."



J.W. "I'm telling you, one of these undercard fights we aren't mentioning is going to end up winning a fight of the night award, I can feel it."


Rey "Are you sure that's not just gas again?"


J.W. "No, I feel that too.. and now that you mentioned it on here, you will feel it too when I release shortly."


Rey "You're a nasty sob, you know that?"


J.W. "Yup, I even fart HARDCORE."


J.W. "Thank you all for tuning in to another edition of Hardcore Bloodbath Entertainment Presents, with your host J.W. Hardman and our guest Rey Gunn. Below are the rest of the fights on this card not mentioned in our analysis. Best of luck to all the fighters stepping into the cage this weekend, and above all else, stay HARDCORE!"

HFC 12 - Bizihwaeile vs Wolf


March 28, 2020

Hayashi's Lounge - Montreal

MMA / Cage / 10 Point Must


This Saturday has become a date I have been waiting for. When first putting together this card, it was designed to get some fighters active and shuffle up the rankings a little bit to see who would crop up and start challenging the edges of the top 10. A couple fights pulled together, one of which stole the show.


Our main event tonight is for the HFC Light Heavyweight championship between newly crowned champ, Aaron Wolf, and the former HFC light heavyweight champ, Feaqeuin Bizihwaeile.


This fight was not supposed to happen until next month, but these fighters didn't want to wait. Wolf called out Bizi after winning the belt, and Bizi accepted the challenge and requested to move the date up so they could throw down sooner. These two fighters have no love for one another, nor do their managers. Check out the official HFC Smack Talk Thread to see the banter between these guys, very entertaining stuff as they go neck and neck.


Aaron Wolf (7-1) Vs Feaqeuin Bizihwaeile (9-3) (Light Heavyweight Title Fight)


The challenger, former HFC champion Bizi, comes into this fight after an impressive outing in his last bout against Martin Alexander in his last fight on Friday 13th's card. No sooner than he got home, cracked open a beer, and started flipping through his black book of numbers, he got the notification... The champ had called HIM out. What's more, is there is history there between these two managers and it appears to have carried over into the fighters.


Bizi answered the call and will be taking on the reigning, undisputed, HFC light heavyweight champion of the world, Aaron Wolf, dressed like Scorpion of Mortal Kombat. (I hope he knows it's not Halloween yet!) Wolf, winning the belt in his last fight against Bruce Vanorden by way of submission, is hungry to get back into the cage again. Kinda surprising, isn't it? A Wolf who likes to be caged?


Riding a 5 fight win streak, and a perfect 5-0 record in the HFC, the champ is looking to punish, nay, hurt his opponent in this fight. The bad blood between these will spill over, and if we're all lucky, spill out making the cage look like a bloodbath CSI scene from a Steven King movie...

Who will prevail? The Wolf, or the wolf man, that is the question. And a question that will be answered one week from today at HFC 12.


Kirill Semenov (5-3) vs Jack Sparrow (5-1) (Heavyweight)


Semenov is an exceptional boxer who also has earned a blue belt in BJJ. He has won the KO of the night award, and won by (T)KO in 4 of his 5 victories. He spent some time on the islands where he started off a promising career, but lost in his final tournament bid and then again in his HFC debut against Lucas in HFC 5.


Semenov will be looking to bounce back from those losses and get his career back to where it needs to be before those losses catch up to his wins. This is one, despite an impressive 5-3 record, he needs to win in a bad way.


His opponent, "Captain" Jack Sparrow, comes into this fight riding high after winning his last three fights, most recently against Tony Soprano Jr. His impressive 5-1 record was only blemished by another familiar name on this card, Bizi. At that time, Sparrow challenged Bizi for the title, but was KO'd for his efforts. Having just 2 fights under his belt at that time, Sparrow just wasn't prepared for a championship fight. He's proving now that he's a better fighter, and if he wins again Saturday, he may be looking at another title shot in the not so distant future. And, if Bizi beats Wolf, he may even end up with a rematch for the title against the same champ. Wouldn't that be a great card..


Sparrow hit's like a mule who just OD'd on steroids while watching his mom get mugged by a racist midget on a trike. With his combination of MT and wrestling, he's been able to finish all five of his fights by TKO, and he's had a history of leaving his opponents in a puddle of blood. When he connects solid, you're usually getting bloody.


In this fight, he will be looking to bloody up Semenov as is the HARDCORE tradition, and move on to work his way up the rankings in persuit of his legacy.


Conor Butcher (4-0) vs Brandin Duncan (6-6) (Lightweight)


Young Conor Butcher is living up to his name as a butcher. He reminds me of a fuzzy headed Tito Ortiz who likes to get you down and manhandle you then ram his fist and elbows down your throat. With exceptional wrestling and BJJ skills, holding a purple belt in BJJ, he has been able to take down and beat down each of his opponents to date.


His opponent, the veteran Duncan has had a bit of a rocky career. His early days with Madness MMA had him with a 4-4 professional record, and he's gone 2-2 in the HFC to date. He's been able to tap out some good fighters along the way, but unfortunately hasn't been able to string together a few victories. Other than his first two fights of his career, he's never won back to back fights. If he wins against Butcher, this would be the first and might give him the momentum he needs to turn his career around.


Butcher has no plans on letting that happen as I hear he's focused and ready to go and has been chomping at the bit to get into the cage. With the momentum he's riding, and the crowd cheering him on, Butcher will give Duncan all he can handle, and probably more.


James Bogger (7-6) vs John Besant (10-5) (Welterweight)


A fight between veterans, two of our most established fighters in the loaded middleweight division. A combined 17-11 record between them, it's a wonder these two haven't crossed paths before.


With excellent striking skills, Bogger has the ability to end a fight via (T)KO. He lost in his recent fight against Tai Kung, and Kung is now looking at his shot at the gold while Bogger is looking at his chance at redemption.


Bessant is also a solid striker with some boxing and high MT training, but also has been hard at work in the gym doing some wrestling training. Bogger may have a slight edge standing, but Bessant defiantly has the edge on the ground.


Bessant is also looking for a rebound fight as he's lost two strait fights, the most recent of which being his HFC debut. Both fighters need a win here, and I think Bessant is going to pull it off. I just don't see enough out of Boggers camp to give me confidence he can get this win.

Aaron Wolf (7-1) Vs Feaqeuin Bizihwaeile (9-3) (Light Heavyweight Title Fight)
The challenger, former HFC champion Bizi, comes into this fight after an impressive outing in his last bout against Martin Alexander in his last fight on Friday 13th's card. No sooner than he got home, cracked open a beer, and started flipping through his black book of numbers, he got the notification... The champ had called HIM out. What's more, is there is history there between these two managers and it appears to have carried over into the fighters.
Bizi answered the call and will be taking on the reigning, undisputed, HFC light heavyweight champion of the world, Aaron Wolf, dressed like Scorpion of Mortal Kombat. (I hope he knows it's not Halloween yet!) Wolf, winning the belt in his last fight against Bruce Vanorden by way of submission, is hungry to get back into the cage again. Kinda surprising, isn't it? A Wolf who likes to be caged?
Riding a 5 fight win streak, and a perfect 5-0 record in the HFC, the champ is looking to punish, nay, hurt his opponent in this fight. The bad blood between these will spill over, and if we're all lucky, spill out making the cage look like a bloodbath CSI scene from a Steven King movie...
Who will prevail? The Wolf, or the wolf man, that is the question. And a question that will be answered one week from today at HFC 12.

HFC 10 - Kung vs Rodrigues

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen of HARDCORE Fighting Championship! I am pleased to announce that you have a brand new face in the booth tonight!

 

It all began at HFC 8, where there I was, vigorously taking notes on a pad of blank yellow sheet paper, along with letting the strangers around me know what was getting set to happen next. It was the 185 lbs title fight between Rob Tanner and Moe Richardson. Tanner was coming in with a 7-1 record. 4 straight knockouts. Starching cats left and right. Moe Richardson on the other hand, was coming in off a first round knockout loss.

 

I was very fortunate to have had one lucky pair of ears listening in on my conversations with fellow fans. And after the result between Tanner and Richardson, one I had accurately picked to the number, I was approached by J. W. Hardman, or “Bleakardor”, the owner of HARDCORE Fighting Championship.

 

After a couple of weeks of making sure my studio apartment could withstand a stay-at-home analyst job, I took on the position with open arms and couldn’t be more excited to relish in the excitement the HFC has to offer, not only by myself but now with all of you!

 

Now, without further ado, let’s get into the action that blew fans’ minds this past weekend! HFC 10 brought a night of fights that didn’t have one see the judges scorecard!

 

Mild Paplano (3-0) vs Vico Firenze (2-2)

Main card action began in the lightweight division with a bout between Mild Paplano (2-0) and Vico Firenze (2-1). Paplano holds a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and has shown keen wrestling ability in his first two fights. Both being decided in under a minute, tonight’s bout rang the same tone. Paplano came out and landed an early takedown, and made quick work, synching up a kimura in 48 seconds. The HFC lightweight division better take notice as all of Paplano’s victories have come by kimura or arm-bar. Great way to begin the night and get the fan’s up and cheering!

 

Balink Tarlah (3-1) vs #7 John Henry (4-1)

Man, oh, man! What a performance by Balink Tarlah! The lightweight division had another awesome fight to follow. The undefeated John Henry (4-0, #7 Lightweight in the HFC) had been on an absolute tear, notching 4 straight first round knockout finishes, including his debut at HFC - Fight Night 4. But Balink Tarlah’s wrestling was too much to handle. He brought the fight to the floor quickly and rained down a heavy barrage of strikes, forcing John Henry to tap out. Balink Tarlah is becoming a very dangerous and scary ground and pound artist. Two of his victims have now been submitted due to them not being able to handle the onslaught. Maybe this sets the tone for a Tarlah - Paplano matchup?

 

Borris the Blade (7-1) vs Jorge Galvao (3-2)

 

In the middleweight division,we have tonight’s feature Knockout of the Night winner, Borris the Blade (7-1)! Running on a 6 fight undefeated winning streak. He suffered his first defeat at the hands of Ralo Gracie by 1st round submission. This was a bitter taste that didn’t sit well with Borris, who had a quick turn around to face Jorge Galvao (3-2) at HFC 10. All within 12 seconds, Borris lands a massive cross. This triggered a takedown out of Galvao, who did not take well at all to Borris’ power. Borris had a quick sprawl, and soon after the fight returns to the feet, lands a massive uppercut that dropped Jorge. Just like that, it was over. Not only did Borris earn bonus money, but a heap of a lot more fans. Well done!

 

Co-Main Event: Rickson Silva (4-0) vs Joseph Jantan (12-6)

 

A feature middleweight bout held fashion to the co-main event tonight as Rickson Silva (4-0) challenged veteran Joseph Jantan (12-6). It was an odd fight, as Joseph Jantan rushed in immediately for a takedown, against a savvy ground technician in Silva. Joseph soon found himself in guard, where Silva used his fantastic bottom game to reverse the position and get on top. The next two minutes looked like a BJJ match where Silva was the man on a completely different level. As much as Jantan was able to fend off the constant arm-bars and kimura attempts, a final kimura sank in and was the one to finish the fight. Rickson Silva has established himself as a solid contender at 185!

 

(170) Welterweight Championship Fight

Manolito Tai Kung (8-1) vs Samuel Rodrigues (9-0)

 

An exciting night of fights led up to a Welterweight Championship Fight who at the time pinned two undefeated fighters against one another. The champion Samuel Rodrigues, 8-0 going into this fight, has been an absolute menace on the ground. Holding the championship in the SFC, and notching his first HFC title defense against Gunner Larrson, he came into his 2nd title defense with the same gameplan, knowing Tai Kung may not have what it takes to match up with his style. Tai Kung came in 8-0 (6-0 MMA, 3-0 KT), looking to keep the fight standing knowing his professional kickboxing experience would lend the hand over Rodrigues’ striking.

 

The bell rang for the welterweight championship bout, and Samuel Rodrigues quickly made the fight a grappling match. Before Tai Kung could get off any striking, he found himself backed up against the cage, looking to fend off not only the heavy pressure of Rodrigues but also his gifted ability to get the fight to his guard. Rodrigues gave him no time to think however, and quickly brought the fight to the ground. There was a very short display of uncertainty in Tai Kung’s eyes as Rodrigues started attempting a multitude of submissions off of his back. The main event was in total a conundrum of how well the fighters fight on the ground here in the HFC. After a mixture of attacks at both a kimura and neck attacks, Rodrgiues was able to cinch up a guillotine, handing Tai Kung his first taste of defeat, and retaining his HFC Welterweight title. Tonight’s event proved to everyone watching that to be able to survive at the top of the HFC, you must have a proficient ground game.

 

We were all treated to a fantastic night of fights! The card was full of action from the top to the bottom. The submission of the night came in the very first fight, as Tun Tun Kho Sitsongrit finished Togachi Nakamoto by kimura 0:42 seconds into the round. The fight of the night came in the heavyweight division, which surprisingly held the longest lasting fight of the night as well! Boris Balkan defeated Gumby Lane by armbar in the 3rd round, in a fight that saw Balkan knock Lane down 3 times. A classy display of striking followed up by the ability to finish on the ground.

 

Tonight was an absolute barn burner. Every fight packed a punch for the fans to witness! It’s been a pleasure being able to bring you guys this event as my first write-up for the HFC, and hopefully can continue to have a lot more fun with all you fight fans! I will see you all next time! Have a lovely evening.

Feaqeuin Bizihwaeile



I ran into Skitters in the supermarket this morning.


Social distancing did not have to be explained, my god does that guy smell like shit!


If you need to evacuate a room as quickly as possible, just put Skitters in there and wait for 5seconds until the smell hits.


Shhiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!

Captain Jack Sparrow



"In a few days, I will be ending the brief and pathetic career of Waampa Woodoo. After that, I want to get back in the cage ASAP, to derail another career. Iv been keeping my eyes on the division, and I see someone who needs to be dealt with. Someone who is overrated, overhyped, and who wont last 1 round with Captain Jack Sparrow. That man is...



Lorenzo "The Italian Stalion" Bataglia. Mr. Bataglia, I challenge you to a fight. Once im done with the beatdown of Woodoo, I'm going to end you. I will destroy everything you've worked for. I will break you in every sense of the word. By the time you leave the cage, you will be crippled... crippled physically, mentally, and emotionally. You will be begging for the ref to jump in and save you. Thats if you don't tap out before that. If you have any courage, any integrity, any guts, any balls, accept my challenge.



For the fans out there, HFC 11 at Hayashi's Lounge in Montreal. Come witness the execution of Waampa Woodoo!"
