Welcome to the official smack talk thread for RAVEN! A 360k Kickboxing Championship League.

 

135, 155, 185, 265 divisions are all 360k+

 

265+ is unrestricted open weight division.

 

These divisions are recruiting for the season+ playoff format. Here's how it goes...

 

Each fighter will be given a 7 fight contract.

Each fighter will fight every other fighter in the division once.

Fights are 3/5 rounds.

At the end of the season, fighter with best record will be given #1 seed and 100k reward.

Tie breaker will be fighter's record against the tie.

End of season, 3 fight contract extensions will be sent out for the playoffs.

Playoff bracket seeding is based on season results.

All playoff fights are 5/5 rounds.

Winner of the playoffs will be crowned champion and given a championship trophy and 150k cash prize!

 

The 265+ division is recruiting for the same event with a minor adjustment.

 

In addition to the above, fighters for this season will pay a 50k entry fee to join the season.

At the end of the season, best record will still be given 100k reward.

At the end of the playoffs, champion will receive the 400k entry fee purse in addition to the championship trophy.

 

This will not effect fighter contracts, simply a way to build a prize pool for the fighters involved for a new org. Additional donations for the prize pool are welcome as every bit of it will go to the total prize pool for the champion.

Raven Creation Tournament Round 1

Folks if this weekend is a sign of things to come for this league then we may be witnessing the birth of something special. President J. W. Hardman was clearly ecstatic from the first round of action. “Are you kidding me?... Some of those knockouts were vicious. We’re a new organization. Fighters know when they come here they can make a name for themselves fast”. J. W. was in great spirits all weekend and was seen taking pictures with fans and participating in pre-fight events throughout Micro-Arena in Montreal. Let's Look at the first day of fights.

 

265+ lbs Uriah Small Defeats Pavlo Bilous Decision (Unanimous)

 

145 lbs Ace Boogie Defeats Yanni Laurel TKO (Punch)

145 lbs Tang Maul Defeats Katashi Suzuki Decision (Unanimous)

145 lbs Jason Wysocki Defeats Randy Warner TKO (Punch)

205 lbs Fred Kemanyo Defeats Big Bong Decision (Unanimous)

205 lbs Carlos Batistuta Defeats Randy Kt King Decision (Unanimous)

145 lbs Aly Magomedov Defeats Paulaner Salvator Decision (Unanimous)

While this card had its share of decisions, we saw some amazing displays of talent. Tang Maui put on a clinchwork clinic. Even scoring a 10-8 round. In the semi-finals Tang will square off against Aly Magomedov who also won via decision. Ace Boogie was spectacular, he won one via 1st round KO and received KO of the night. He will face Jason Wysocki in the semi finals. Jason won his fight and received fight of the night honors. They both won via KO, they both got post fight bonuses...when they square up, bring the popcorn.

All the fighters, both winners and losers, showed great honor. We thank Uriah Small and Pavlo Bilous for fighting on our card. They are not in our tournament but represented the organization valiantly. All other winners from this evening's fights will move on in the Raven Creation Tournament. They will be moving one step closer to their ultimate goal… a championship. The semifinal fights will be held on 5/22. See the Raven KT League forum for a full tournament bracket.

 

The next night of Fights had an insane amount of KO’s. How in the world did president Hardman choose KO of the night on a card stacked with them? I asked and he responded,- “I went into a dark room, I put on some Grateful Dead and 45 minutes later, the answer came to me.”: Interesting tactics from the president. His decision was a great one. Micah Tavern was accurate and lethal. “Tavern connects with a crushing straight, right on the bridge of Moody's nose, sending him crumpling to the mat!”. That blow earned him a spot in the semifinals and some extra coin from the KO of the night honor. Once again thank you to Marvin Vettori and Jorehan Krakenbreaker. Two vets showing their skills in this new league. They are not in the tournament. The rest of the winners all advanced to the semifinals on 5/22. Fight of the Night was Dom Diego beating Larry Williams in a three round battle. Dom was cut up bad but still took home the decision. We are very excited for him to square off with KO of the night recipient Micah Tavern in the semifinals. Here is all the results from the fights.

 

 

265+ lbs Marvin Vettori Defeats Jorehan Krakenbreaker KO (Punch)

170 lbs Kick Boxer Jr Defeats Gulliermo Del Torro TKO (Punch)

 

170 lbs Joe Subway Defeats Johnny Walker

170 lbs Hannibal Rex Defeats Moldy Peach TKO (Cut)

205 lbs Micah Tavern Defeats Joe Moody TKO (Punch)

205 lbs Dom Diego Defeats Larry Williams Decision (Unanimous)

170 lbs Chu Mi Bianfu Defeats Andrew Harrison TKO (Punch)

 

We will see you May 22nd at The Underground Arena in Montreal. Buy your ticket now, the hype is building. Chuck Norris is reportedly sitting cageside. Keep in mind 5/22 is not the end. Yes, the losers will have to face the challenging lows of defeat. The winners will get the joy of victory. However, they will have to maintain their emotions as the mission is not yet complete. The finals will be following shortly. Championships are earned not given. Please see Raven forum for tournament bracket and league updates.

 

Raven KT league is proud to bring you these events...AS usual FIGHT ON!

We have moved some rosters around to empty out the 135, 155, 185, and 265+ divisions.

This will enable us to open up for 350k fighters in each of those divisions.

 

145, 170, 205, 265 will all remain 355k+

135, 155, 185, and 265+ will be 350k+ now.

Spread the word, lets get some fighters in this org and make this interesting for me again. I have had a few managers reach out to me about opening up 350k, but I did not feel it would be fair to the current 360k fighters on our roster, but with these open divisions, we can now bring in 350k fighters.

Have a 350k mma fighter who didn't make the cut at HFC or F&B? Bring him to Raven and let him focus on his striking skills and still have a successful career. Maybe you didn't like the roster over at BFC or you got your nuts cracked a few too many times over at Sucker Punch? We have a division for you! Come focus on KT, let the nut cupping and hippie hugging go and come fight like men!

We can do a 8 or 16 man tournament for the belt in these 350k divisions too.

 

KT fights matter! Make KT great again! It's time for a change in KT! Yes We Can!!!
