VALOR continues to grow

VALOR (KT & TWGC), Fight Organization, New York
Company profile by Dane Chakrawan

VALOR, previously known as Pitbull, has continued to grow after it's transition in ownership.

Currently offering the premiere fights in KT and TWGC, VALOR is the home of almost 100 fighters. In troubling waters following the many changes to the system, the ship has corrected and found it's groove by pioneering the popularity payscale.

Dane Chakrawan, the owner, commented on the organization as follows:

"When it comes to VALOR, it was slightly complicated after the transition from Pitbull to find our footing. But we've succeeded, and it's entirely thanks to the competitors and managers that keep troubled aspects alive. Previously both aspects were seen as 'sparbot' dumpers where you would passively gain money. But now we've managed to turn it into a formally competitive environment where it's not just an afterthought to participate, but an active goal.

New faces have also changed the landscape drastically. Just recently we've seen individuals rise to the occasion like Irlav Jarol or Samart Bukaew. Or VALOR newcomer, Dreynos Elvul quickly earning himself the title of #1 grappler by dethroning Gillechriosd McCoy. There are a lot of interesting shakeups happening, and we encourage those with skilled enough fighters to contact us and forge their legacies."

The Heavyweight and the House Fire

Fighter profile of Cam Aspinall by Viktor Volkov

 The King of the Quay is back online, bruised, unbeaten, and unbothered. Fresh off his 15th straight victory, a second-round knockout over the brave-but-battered Frenkie Chen, Cam Aspinall (15-0) is living the heavyweight dream: tea, titles, and total mayhem.

Frenkie, the former middleweight champ who bulked up to take a swing at the throne, promised speed, skill, and a shocking upset. What he got was a thunderous right hand halfway through round two and a front-row view of the Camden Conference Centre lights.

Now, less than three weeks later, the Geordie juggernaut is already back at it, training, filming, and somehow managing to survive his most dangerous opponent yet: domestic appliances.

Like a "ford falcon" at Full Tilt

Fighter profile of Thompson Swire by Dane Chakrawan

Born in Brisbane but raised in Perth, Thompson Swire happened into MMA after a suspension in the NRL. After spending some time and rolling in some classes, Swire quickly found himself being picked up by ever distracted Dane Chakrawan. Muttering to himself about "dingos" and "not seeing any kangeroos so far", Dane found himself on a brief sabbatical after failing in one of the many tournaments he signed up for. Thompson was recruited to camp Chakrawan after signing up for the Alliance World Championship with Chakrawan hoping to turn his luck around.

Since then, Thompson has had mixed results in "putting it all together". A fast learner naturally and confident, two early victories gave him a big head. Tripp Moody humbled him quickly, followed by two "learning experiences" against Helios Heikkinen and Frank Vasara (editor's note: Dane Chakrawan has begun shouting various expletives over the result of this match in particular) before managing to reel it in at the last moment along with his SMESH 2 brethren.

SIEGE REVIEW AND PREVIEW

SIEGE Kickboxing Championship (415k+), Fight Organization, London
Company profile by George Jones

SIEGE is an upcoming Kickboxing organisation based out of London, we are 415k+ and are associated with WOVA. I would like to tell everyone about our last 4 events, which have been increasingly succesful and what i plan for the future, ( and what i need from you). 

SIEGE 1 (10-04-25), saw us make our debut with 20 fighters clashing to get their first win and secure their place as a pioneer of the organisation.  Toni Lima successfully did so when he picked up a TKO victory inside of 30 seconds into the first round, granting him a perfomance bonus and securing his reputation as a force to be reckoned with.

SIEGE 2 (10-25-25). We returned to the same venue, the crowd came to their seats in which they witnessed 8 thrilling knockouts including a spinning backfist KO from Booger Whacker inside the first minute of Round 1. Peter Bennett and Zack Travis earned fight of the night after an excellent 2 rounds of non-stop violence.<
