Preview Prepared by Mason Ashcroft

 

Some wants too see world fall into pieces…


„What a punch! Just like that, he’s out!”
Some, prefer to see it fall into darkness…
„He got arm under his chin! How long can he stay in it…He’s out!”
 But in order to do so, you need power. Power not only to survive – but power necessary to stand on top. Alone. And Strong.
 
Welcome to war. Welcome – in our world. Welcome, in Syn-city.

Cole Mitchell Q&A

Q: Dear martial arts fans today I have travelled halfway across the globe to pay a special visit to Cole Mitchell. On an island in the middle of nowhere, a kickboxing organization was founded. Fighting in said organization is Muay Thai standout Cole Mitchell. To say that Cole Mitchell has made a good first impression would be an understatement. Not only did he win his first two fights, he won them both by knockout. First of all, congratulations are in order. Cole, splendid work. I watched both your fights and the technical skills you put on display are a beautiful sight to see.

 

Cole: Thanks man, I followed my game plan to the letter and I was rewarded for my dedication. Props to my coaches at Gizmo's Gym for giving me the support I needed to put on the performance that you ended up witnessing.

 

Q: Do you think your coaches played a crucial role in your victories so far?

 

Cole: Undeniably, you c

Puno speaks to Turpin

Fighter profile of Kajun Puno by Chris Karter

In a recent pre-fight press conference we heard Turpin and Puno exchanging garbs. The two fighters pulled no punches on how they felt about one another, with Turpin speaking with confidence and experience, in a "been there, done that" type of manner, and Puno remaining calm and poised, expressing his own opinions on the matchup.

 

"I sympathize for opponent but show no mercy.

 

He had brief moment of glory - fame and lights that come with success too bright for him and unknown manager of him.

It boost head and ego, get in way for both, and over confident in ability he crushed again and again.

The Interview

 

Our journey finally brings us back to London, and we have obtained an exclusive interview as part of the documentary with Mikael.

 

EJ: First off Mikael, this is my first chance to say congratulations to you in person on defending your title against Bua Khao in your last fight. Did it go how you expected?

 

MB: Considering their change in management, it was a bit of a throw up on what he would do in the cage. We figured the best thing we can do is stick to what we do best, and it turned out well. People talked extensively about how good his chin was in the lead up to the fight, but in the end it just wasn’t tough enough to survive.

 

EJ: It’s a bittersweet victory for you however, with the announcement of Primal closing shortly afterwards. Now you sit here, a Free Agent. How did you find your time in Primal?

GH2: Snow vs Acid REVIEW

By Alika Webb

 

 

Last season on the island, a lighthouse was the sign of hope. A rival to the biggest organization on the island and a welcome alternative, open to all fighters looking for a home. Now a new season is upon us and new companies were founded among the resurrected organizations from the days of old. All try to set themselves apart as they vie for the attention of the island dwellers. Some try to advertise their fights with previews and the promise of rewards. Some aspire to greatness whilst they orchestrate their fights in front of an audience consisted of a mere 62 souls (seriously, that was hilarious!). Some trade the cage for a ring and abandon the ground game, focusing their attention purely on the striking aspect. One forgotten little lighthouse appears lost in the fold. Abruptly abandoned after last season, the lighthouse that was once a symbol of hope now appears withered and haunted. But appearances can be deceiving and once inside, you see that the symbol of hope is back in all its former glory. Under a new name but with the same management, Ghosthouse is the place to be for great fights on the island. Action and excitement guaranteed as the fighters go to war in a haunted setting that will send chills down your spine!
