GAMMA #534 - REVIEW - January 23rd, 2016 - Los Angeles, California - L.A. Memorial Collosuseum

Stelio “The Greek” Kontos (12-4, 1-0 GAMMA) [Legion of Doom] VS. Hossein Vaziri, Jr. (26-9-1, 1-2 GAMMA) [Five Points Gang] Light Heavyweight (205)

Our first fight on the main card saw GAMMA newcomer Stelio Kontos, who is represented by Hans Ulrich Krafft, taking on the veteran, Iranian fighter Hossein Vaziri, Jr., a fighter under the tutelage of Aleksey Igorievich. “The Greek” came in to this one riding a five fight winning streak dating back to August of 2015, whereas Vaziri was coming off of his first GAMMA victory. Vaziri came out willing to stand, but countered with some takedowns, playing to the strength of his wrestling. Unfortunately for him, the young Greek phenom was able to keep this fight standing, where he got the better of Vaziri from start to finish. Body shots and head shots combined to impress the judges,

Ray & Jay's Bogus MMA Interview - PePe Hipatchou

Ultimate Pit Fighting (300K+ ID), Fight Organization, Hilo
Company profile by Dale Saw

Jay: Hey everybody Jay here with my pops Ray. And we are here today for something new, an interview of PePe Hapitchou, the UPF's bantamweight champion of the world and headliner at UPF 39: Hapitchou Vs. McCarthy.

Ray: That's right Jay, we actually have nothing to do until after the event, since our loyal audience wanted a review this week, so we are going to sit down with the UPF's newest champion, PePe Hapitchou. Now PePe, he is the former champion of the Havoc fight org. in Amsterdam. Coming into the UPF with a 10-3 record, he was immediately given a title shot.

Jay: Which he fought a five round monstrosity of a fight against the, at that time, undefeated champ Malik Billings. It was one hell of a fight too, with Malik winning the first and arguably the last rounds, PePe took all three mid rounds and, at the end of the day, took home the championship. Ladies and gentlemen please help me welcome PePe Hipatchou.

(PePe enters the stage holding his UPF belt above his head with both hands, pumping the air with it)

Jay: Welcome PePe, is it alright I call you PePe? Or should I just address you as Champ?


PePe: Either one works for me. I kinda like the sound of champ though.


Jay: It does have a nice ring to it, doesn't it? P

Island FC 11 Review

ISLAND FC, Fight Organization, New York
Company profile by

 What a night ...ladies and gentlemans....we had an amazing card with 10 fights 9 finishes and 1 decision....we had no trouble with fighters making weight this time....and as usual we were by cage side calling the fights for you.....Island FC 11 main event was the 145lbs Title fight where the reigning champ retain the belt  and became the  new Island FC P4P king.....Outstanding performance from all our warriors....They fought and fought hard...Gladiators we Salute you!...

 

  145lbs Title Fight  Hop Sing Jung vs Alexander Vermeer  Deep inside we all knew the way the fight would play,no upset on this one, Hop Sing did hes job and shut down Vermer very early in the fight ,he took advantage of Vermer extra agressive style and shoot with a powerfull double leg,as soon as he got the take down we all knew it was a question of time before he sinked in a submission,at first Vermer kept hes composure and defended well a couple of attempts, but then hes will to go on was taken away from him by the intensity and ground control of Hop Sing...

text book performance for the winner and brave attempt by the looser.....good first round submission win for Hop Sing and still the lightweight champ...   

205lbs (Fight of the Night-KO of the Night)Frank Karlsson vs Lee Black  This was a straight out stand up brawl...it was fast and furious ,toe to toe, both fighters very agressive

The Grinder's poem to Vakarchuk

Editorial by Sliced Bread

Bret The Grinder

Svyatoslav Vakarchuk what’s the deal?
You ignored my Buzz? I was just keeping it real!
But seriously dude you better get some fire!
Because January 19th I’m putting you down.
And after losing 4 in a row you’ll retire.
I’ll send you an armchair and a dressing gown.
You say underdog I say undefeated.
And you may think the guys I fought were worse?

But after one round, like always, you’ll be depleted.
No man has beat me, and you won’t be the first.

So you better just hope you can take me to the ground.
Because if you don’t; I’ma dust you in a round.
1st round? 3rd round? It really doesn’t matter.
Cos when my fist hits your chin, your whole career will shatter.

FWC 4 Preview

Fighting Warriors Championship
2016-02-20, Montreal, The Underground - Montreal
Author:Lucas Veigne

LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT: Nicolas "Nico" Gracie (2-0-0) vs. Sterling "The Vice President " Nixon (2-1-0)
 
In this match up, both fighters will be making their FWC debuts. This is Nixon's first appearance in a professional org. Nico is the first Gracie we have seen here at FWC. He boasts a brown belt in BJJ, and will be looking to get a sub from there. He has a first round sub in both of his first two fights. Nixon is a remarkable wrestler, but finds himself outmatched if he takes it to the ground. Nixon wil be looking to use his wrestling skills to avoid the ground game and land some strikes.
 
Prediction: Gracie wins by submission
 
 
LIGHTWEIGHT: Jamar “The Snake” Lullard (3-0-0) vs. “Lunch Money “Owen Whipple (4-4-0)
 
Jamar Lullard is coming into this fight undefeated after winning his first pro fight. He’s making his FWC debut.  Whipple comes into this fight after breaking his losing streak in stunning fashio
