 Forge Craftsman vs Owen Hill 


  In the first bout of the night we will hopefully we will see a blast because this fight should not go the distance in my opinion. Hill comes in with virtually no stand up game at all but what he lacks in that he makes up for in Amazing ground game that should be achallenge for nearly any fighter in this division. His opponent on the other hand has amazing wrestling talent himself but its just not as good as his opponent. Another factor that Craftsman has would be his Muay Thai which could be a X-Factor but the question is can his corner utilize it but he will not have much time because im sure Hill comes out and gets his take down. Winner Hill Via Submission 


Gream Shroom Lowe Madlangtuta


  Moving on to the second bout bout of the night we have the classic case of a sprawl and brawl fighter against a well rounded stand up build. However i do not believe that Lowe has a good enough all around ability to pick away at Shroom's weakness which would be the muay thai however i have been wrong before. What i could very well see is shroom just showing his dominance in the boxing game and if he can push the pace and get in some bombs i think shroom can get a easy KO. I do think though that Lowe can possibly get a decision win if he can get to the clinch and chip away at the score card. Shroom winner via KO


Austin Taylor vs Michael Campbell
 
   Rolling on to the third fight of the night we have what seems to be another guranteed finish and hopefully the fighters won't let us down. The hammer goes into this fight being a very big favorite in my eyes being very well trained in Muay thai and in BJJ which means he has a chance to finish this fight no matter where it ends up which puts Campbell in a very bad position. Campbell little glimmer of hope is if he can box his way to a victory but the chances of that are very slim and i think we will not see this go the distance. Taylor Winner Via Ko
 
Hack Poll vs Max Kelly
 
  In the fourth fight of night we have a battle of two very closely matched combatants. Both have chosen to taken the route of not being too good at anything and not showing much room for error. I think that however Kelly may be able to take his slight boxing advantage to a T but this will be a fight that is won on tactics alone. Poll though if he is able to then he can take him to the ground and pound away and score some points on the scorecard but at the same time you also have to remember is that Kelly also has the higher belt ranking so maybe he could pull out a sub win but nothing is for sure in the world of MMA. Winner Kelly Via Decision 
 
Zapp Brannigan vs Zach Kamaina
 
  Next we have what i can ensure will be a quick finsish tonight and a potential sub of the night. Zapp is coming into this fight with a very impressive record 3-1 and looks to polish up his sub skills in this fight and get the tap i think that is a noi brainer. However in the other corner we have a guy who i can gurantee you enjoys being the underdog in this fight. Zach might be in trouble on the ground but when it comes to stand up he is the far superior fighter and it will be a race to see if he can knock iut his opponent before he gets taken down should be fun to watch but only time will tell who wins that race. Winner Zapp Via Sub
 
Jack Watts vs Robert E Conan
 
  Coming up next we have a bout that looks like it could go either way should make for a interesting fight. However in the stand up both there skill level is practically the same I think that conan with his wrestling could steal a win if he plays his sliders right. If conan is able to take advantage of his wrestling i think he may be able to pound his way to a victory In this fight the X-factor has to be his wrestling but can he use it. If he does not figure out to utiliaze this then it is anybody's fight. Conan Winner Via Decision
 
Nice Guy vs Muay Thai 
 
In the next bout we have a very one sided match in my opinion in favor of the thai fighter but onlt time can tell. You would never have guessed it but Thai specializes in the art of 8 points of contact and thats the big reason why i can almost gurantee that he will ein this fight. Guy is just comin into this fight to put on a show like a real nice guy but if he can win this fight somehow then it shows me that guy is more then just nice he can work miracles too. Thai Over Guy Via KO 
 
Uncle Nasty vs Norwegian Viking
 
In the last fight before we start the main event we have two of our big boys coming in looking to shake things up. This is a great match up of two veterans who know the cage just as well as some of the most battle tested vets however with two completley different fighting styles which could leave it up to who wins the slider battle and who has the better hiddens. Nasty is come off a ko loss but to a very good opponent so that no knock on him however he is going up against a fighter that earns his wins via ko so that can be interesting. Viking is ironically coming off of a sub loss and hes fighting a fighters who wants to get you to tap which makes this a very interesting fight I don't see any clear cut Favorite here but one thing i know for sure is that it should be a great one to watch.
 
Tommy Morrison vs Ivan ORourke
  In the Co-Main Event of the evening we have some of the best fighters this org has to offer going head to head to head in a very close fight. The one thing is that Ivan has on his side is much more experience in the cage racking in over 30 fights and 10 of those being Ko's that is a impressive feat for anyman. Morrison however comes into this fight with a great oppurtunity seeing as in he can show what he has against a game opponent. Morrison though will need to make use of the ground game here to win because with a fighter like Ivan you do not want to make that impact on the feet. I would try to make a decision on who i think would win but this is such a great fight i want to just see how it goes.
 
Lion Takanori vs Jose Sanchez
 
Now its finally arrived the main event of the evening Fighting out the one of the corners( not sure which color is wich) standing 166cm and weighing in at 151bs we have Lion who is pretty much a machine can he be stopped 15ko's. Now in the other corner we have Sanches who is no worse and no better this is one of the contenders for fight of the night but who will come out on top. Lion I think we all know is just gonna come in and work his same old stradegy just Knock your opponent the F$#%k out just like he has done everyother night and from what ive seen he knows how to do it . Sanchez(Who according to his manager has the best custom skin of all time) Caould very well win this fight but it would be tough I mean he has a stronger Bjj background and Muay thai but im not sure what will happen if he can use it or only time will tell though i belive this may be one of the greatest fights this org has ever seen.
