SFC is proud to present SFC 11: Churchhill vs Dominguez and the event is going to take place in The Underground on 28th Sep 2014. There are gonna be two title bouts on the line and the MW championship fight is headlining the event! This event is going to deliver!
Here is the prediction of the prelims fights in the card first:

LW bout: JR Cruz (0-1) vs Jack Burkman (0-2)
Prediction: Cruz by 1st round submission

WW bout: Rick Glen (1-1) vs Christopher Duffy (0-3)
Prediction: Duffy by UD

MW bout: The Daxter (2-2) vs Alex Villabueno (2-0)
Prediction: Villabueno by 1st round submission

LW bout: Sergej Smakov (2-1) vs Matt Hiller (1-2)
Prediction: Smakov by 2nd round TKO

LW bout: Mikhail Efremov (2-3) vs Frankie Silversteen (3-1)
Prediction: Efremov by 1st round submission


Here we go this is the preview of the main card:

LHW bout: Alex Meer (2-0) vs Kaleb Grimsson (1-0)

This is a striking battle between the boxer Meer and the MT striker Grimsson. I can't make sure who is winning this one as their striking level are the same. But I can see Meer isnt a KO artist by looking at his last fight so I don"t see he can knock Grimsson out. He is more a high volume puncher who would love to frustrate and outwork his foe with his accurate punches. So is Grimsson. Grimsson is a high volume striker who loves to mix up punches and leg kicks. I think those leg kicks will be the key to Grimsson's victory. I believe he can slow down Meer with those leg kicks as the fight goes longer and earn a decision win. Anyway, gonna be a good fight!

Prediction: Grimsson by UD

MW bout: Janko Bulk (3-0) vs Jake Greenberg (3-1) 1NC

This is another MT vs boxing matchup but they did put some points for their wrestling and BJJ too so they are quite well-rounded actually. Both men earned 5 victories by decision in their combined 6 wins and all Bulks wins are by decision so I don't see this fight will be last less than 15 minutes. Bulk can clinch, can takedown and can pull guard and Greenberg loves to box and sometimes will go for takedowns. I think Bulk can win this one with his clinch game because Bulk is better and confident in clinch and I dont see Greenberg can KO him with his average KO power.

Prediction: Bulk by UD

WW bout: Jerson Gracie (1-0) vs Blake Grreckon (3-1)

A classic matchup between a BJJ artist Gracie and a boxer Grreckon. Gracie won his MMA debut with takedowns and tons of submission attempts and Grreckson has earned 3 (T)KOs in his 3 wins and 2 of them are under a minute so perhaps Grreckon can pull off another quick KO win over Gracie but Gracie is not a counter fighter. He is the aggressor who can score early takedown before having trouble so I can see Gracie taking Grreckon down early in the fight and tap him out midway though the first round.

Prediction: Gracie by 1st round submission

Co-main event

LW title fight: Zach Barbery (6-2) vs Martin Begly (3-1)

The LW championship is on the line! The newly crowned, reigning and defending LW champion Barbery is facing the challenger Begly who is 2-0 inside the SFC cage. Both guys are great strikers so I cant wait to see how this fight will go down! Barbery is a heavy hitting boxer and Begly is a striking sensation with respectable boxing and MT so this stylistic striking battle is going to be really intriguing but I can see Barbery knocking Begly out early in the first round as all Barbery's wins are inside the first round with 5 inside a half of a round and 4 under a minute. The only way Begly can win is utilize his clinch or expose Barbery's questionable chin with his head kicks but before he can do that, he is already an unconscious man. Barbery is just too dangerous!

Prediction: Barbery by 1st round TKO (actually I am confident with Begly's chin.)

MAIN EVENT

MW title fight: Brett Churchhill (6-1) vs Daniel Dominguez (4-0)

Ladies and gentlemen, the main event is on the line! Its on the line! The MW champion Churchhill is looking to defend his title against the challenger Dominguez when the crowd is already in nuts! This is a fun matchup between a boxer and a GnP wrestler. Churchhill beat Shlemenko the hell out to get the belt and I thought Shlemenko was going to win. Churchhill just brutalized everyone with his powerful punches but his ground game is questionable as he tapped to a BJJ blue belt. Actually Churchhill has never got taken down so Dominguez is gonna let him know how the canvas feel. Dominguez is a high level wrestler with devastating GnP. If he can take this fight to the ground, Churchhill is done. I believe Dominguez can score an early takedown as always after he misses some and finally TKO him with GnP late in the first round. I am a bit biased though because I am Dominguez' fan.

Prediction: Dominguez by TKO late in 1st round and become the new MW champion

See you guys on Saturday night!
