IFC FIGHTS REVIEW

ISLAND FC, Fight Organization, New York
Company profile by

IFC FIGHTS was live from the  Hayashi's Lounge and what a night this was!...

we manage to put together this great card ...we had nothing less then 9 finishes 8 of which inside 1 round....This was probably the fastest fight card we ever had....in fact we used the octagon after the card finished, strippers came in and gave this packed arena some joy, with a brilliant poll dance and dancehall displays.....

Those were some next level botty shaking and the fans loved it.....

Now let me call the fights for you's:


 
 
170 lbs TITLE Andrey Lobtov vs Peter Potter  (SUBMISSION OF THE NIGHT)


This was the biggie of the night, both fighters with an impressive resume and the champion Peter Potter defending hes belt against a fairly unknown newcomer that hes causing shockwaves around the all island mma community....

The champ started well he was imposing hes pace and bossing the stand up exchanges , very accurate with hes striking while Lobtov kept trying for that takedown and it didn't took him long to get it....i guess there is only so many takedowns you can defend against this former Olympic judo champion....

the challenger scored a beautifully timed takedown, then he swiftly improved position into the mount ,and you know what he was planing!....he took a risky move ,went for the armbar and was successful achieving it.....

surprise 1st round Submission win for the NEW island fc welterweight champion Andre Lobtov 
 
 

135 lbs Tobias Marshall vs Walton Kunz


In this fight we had two fighters looking to establish a good run of form....both fighters have some inconsistency and were hooping to get that record straight here....this was actually a very good fight ,very entertaining for the fans and the way they were reacting on those exchanges show that appreciation.....this two excellent boxers went for it with some good exchanges ....

Kunz tried to control the pace but Marshall was the more determined fighter and he didn't let that happen...Marshall was the aggressor all the way and Kunz had little to oppose that.....he sign hes death sentence by taking the fight into the clinch,Marshall showing a much better clinch work ,and those denunciate attempts to pull guard didn't help neither....he did manage to pull guard once ,just for Marshall to get right back to hes feet call him up to hes feet and knocking him back down .....the ref eventually stepped in and stopped the fight.....

dominante submission win for  Tobias Marshall 
 
 

 

170 lbs Jesse Enkamp vs Spanky Hamm


I just have one word to describe this fight "reach" mama mia, dont you know legs are longer then arms ,therefor if someone is sussessfully kicking the shit out of you successfully, it will be a good move if you cut the distance and clinch or something he cant just get into a technical striking match against someone with the skill and the reach of Jesse...Jesse did the job and follow hes corner instructions very well , he stuck to the game plan and he was spanking Spanky ,choping down those legs like an axe , tendering the ribs with those round the house to the body and going upstairs every now and then.....i think if it wasnt for Spanky's chin this fight wouldnt have gone to the distance.....

dominant decision win for Jesse Enkamp 
 
 

 

135 lbs Noam Zinn vs Altin Patriot


This was a quick one , easy to call ...Zinn shot for the takedown as soon as the fight started and got it...he was trying some submissions from the top position but got reversed ,Altin's move proved to be "fatal" he was siting on the gusrd of a much superior submission fighter and paid the price for that.....Zinn scored a slick armbar in under one minute ,

impressive....quick 1st round submission win for Noam Zinn 
 
 
185 lbs Gleb Zheglov vs Alpha Straken (FIGHT OF THE NIGHT)


This was the fight where Gleb establish himself has the main title contender...amazing fight, back and forward and in the end ....both fighters hurting each other and trowing bombs trough out the contest....Straken didn't seem very happy with the stoppage , he thought it was premature, but he was in trouble and the referee was right, hes the responsible for fighters safety and he did hes job there.....

amazing 3rd round KO win for Gleb Zheglov 
 
 

145 lbs Mahti Mahti vs Nate Kulina (KO OF THE NIGHT)


Mahti was the boss here, he went in very aggressive and accurate he dismantled hes opponent in less then a minute...first he dropped Nate with a vicious combination ,then he show good killing instinct and moved in for the kill....Mahti score hes second win here and is moving up well in the rankings....this excellent boxer with lighting speed hands made a statement with this win here.....

brutal 1st round KO for Mahti Mahti 
 
 
155 lbs Kai Trie Tadeo vs Chance Bennett


Kai Trie kept hes 0 for now, he deserved the win here....he looks amazing with hes strike defense and hes chin is something to admire to , well hes chin wasn't put to test here , in fact were hes boxing skills that brought the money....he was a bit green and wild at times but did the job and finished the fight with a beautiful right hand on the button...

.convincing 1st round TKO.....
 
 
265 lbs Sam Jackson vs Tarik Slice


This was a very importante win for Sam's ambition of chalanging for the title, he put himself right on track with this win....he came in has the oldest but much shorter fight , he took advantage of those conditions and used a very clear and eficient game plan.....as soon as the fight started he used the first exange of striikes to counter with a beautifully timed takedown into side control....it was a question of time before one of those limbs got traped...eventually he managed to trap an arm and scored a wonderfull armbar.....

quick 1st round submission win for Sam Jackson 
 
 

135 lbs Thom Fathead vs Arslan Rashid


Reckless approach from Rashid cost him the fight...he came in full of confidence but over aggressive against an exelente boxer the result was unavoidable and Rashid was counting stars within 26 sec....he walked straight into a right hand and was all she wrote.....Thom had the reach advantage  and the right attitude, the youngster scored hes first professional win here and hes looking forward for hes next fight already..

quick 1st round KO win for Thom Fathead 
 
 
155 lbs Nate Gonzalez vs Carlos Diaz


This was Nate at hes best , he fought the perfect fight and did that in just 36sec.....timing ,speed , accuracy  and finishing instinct all combined in this 19 year old....the future is looking promising ....he show us hes mean side here refusing to let go after hes opponent taped and subsequently putting him to sleep.....the reaction was a brawl between both fighters corners and we nearly had them both disqualify....

perfect 1st round submission win for Nate Gonzalez 
 
 
 
I leave you guys with a little poem :
 
“The main courtyard was filled with warriors - mermen with fish tails from the waist down and human bodies from the waist up, except their skin was blue, which I'd never known before.Some were tending the wounded. Some were sharpening spears and swords. One passed us, swimming in a hurry. His eyes were bright green, like that stuff they put in glow-sticks, and his teeth were shark teeth. They don't show you stuff like that in "The Little Mermaid.”
― Rick Riordan, The Last Olympian
