Wow, the fans are delighted by a great presentation in the Galaxy FC Premiere. This first event was sold out! All 1000 sits were taken by screaming and bloodthirsty fans and the fighters didn’t disappoint. Only 3 fights went for decision and were great. But the night was gifted by huge submissions! At least 3 of them could easily win a sub of the night in other event.  But let’s not ramble. Here is the official Galaxy 1: The Big Bang! review!


Reginald Francis Colon vs Terry Picket

This was a clinch fighter. The first time Picket managed to drag the fight to the ground but due to inactiveness the referee stands them up.  The second time Francis Colon punched, kneed and elbowed until he land a lethal elbow dropping his opponent down and a few more strikes it was all over. A TKO victory in less than 2 minutes. This guy will go far!


Doug ‘’The Glaswegian Nightmare’’ McDonald vs Keiji Kawada

Here Kawada was no match for McDonald. 17 takedown attempts and none were successful! McDonald, on the other hand, almost landed all his 70 strikes! I don’t how Kawada last that much! At the end of the second round after rocking Kawada, McDonald knocked down his opponent not once but twice, allowing him to back up to have some more!  With only 4 seconds to the end of the second round, Kawada didn’t survive another head kick and was knocked out. What a great victory! McDonald was presented with the KO of the night and also will receive a shot for the Featherweight title!


‘’Iron Fist’’ Gabriel Odonnell vs Top Gun

The first decision of the night was a bit crazy. Gun was the better fighter but he had a crazy gameplan. He clinches, he breaks clinch. He gets a takedown, he gets up. What’s up with that? Even with such nonsense strategy he was better the entire fight, wherever it was, he had the advantage and got a 30-27 Unanimous Decision. On the bright side, both guys give all they got and landed a good rating!
Bryce ‘’Lucky Limes’’ ODonnell vs Grigorio ‘’I Came’’ Escobar
This fight was great! The first round was mostly a ground fight. An early takedown by ODonnell gave him the advantage to be on top but the entire round both fighters landed awesome sweeps but no pound action.  It was a very close round, could go either way. The second round was a clinch round and it was when Escobar staring showing his dominance! With lots of punched he nailed the second round! The third were a striking battle. What a variety, han? This last round, Escobar punched his way to the victory, almost knocking ODonnell with a wild overhand. It was a pretty even fight that Escobar turn into a dominant victory. Huge victory that puts him one step closer to the top.


‘’The Hood Rat’’ Hoodie Ratty vs Kamil Burczynski

This ‘’grapling war’’ were awarded as the first time ever ‘’fight of the night’’ in the history of Galaxy FC. What a war! But it wasn’t just a ground game. At the beginning of the fight, Burczynski overmatched Ratty in the stand up and when he were about to knock him out, Ratty got a surviving takedown, but the polish got a quick sweep and stayed on the the rest of the round. The second round started with an early takedown for Ratty but he used the lay and pray tactic until the referee stand up. And on the striking game, once again Burczynski were superior. In the third round Ratty again gets a takedown but just sits on top thinking about dinner and that gave the opportunity to Burczysnki get a guillotine and put his opponent to sleep! Wow, what a victory! He finished a brown belt when he was in his guard! This victory might guarantee a title fight, but let’s see how thing go.


Marcus ‘’Hammer’’ Hanson vs Adolf Jakobsen

In this welterweight bout, Jakobsen got an easy victory against Hanson. An early takedown buried any chances Hanson had in this fight. A combination of sub attempts and position advances ended in a rear naked choke. An easy and quick victory for Jakobsen. Hanson was no match.


‘’Speedy’’ Owen Glyde vs Rajesh Nahasemapetilon

Raj were the better striker and a quick punch opened a cut in Glyde’s head but the fight moved into clinch and from that moment Glyde starting showing his dominance. He landed a few punches and a couple of good knees until he dragged the fight to the ground a quickly submitted his opponent with a kimura. All that in less than a minute! Excellent finish for Glyde here. The first of many awesome subs in the night.


Roene Dekker vs ‘’Bouty Hunter’’ Jaques Du Coudray

What a battle! It was a pretty damn close fight when the fighters were on his feet but when it hits the mat, Du Coudray showed better skills and that made the difference in this bout. In the first round Du Coudray got a takedown in less than a minute and stayed active on top the entire round. The second was pretty close but when it went to the ground again, Dekker was tamed by his opponent. The last round was entirely a striking match. Although pretty close again, Dekker had time to show his true skills and gave Du Coudray a hard time be it was to late. A solid decision for Du Coudray here.


Chris ‘’Wonderboy’’ Van De Kamp vs ‘’Your Fantanasy’’ Zack Fantana

This fight displayed a classic striker vs grappling fight. The first round, Fantana clinched his opponent and landed 28 elbows in only one round! Wow, that was nasty, how Van De Kamp wasn’t cut? Does he have crocodile skin? After this massacre, the ‘’Wonderboy’’ got an early takedown, made his way to the mount and finished Fantana with an armbar! Great victory for Van De Kemp! He nailed the ‘’sub of the night’’ and a chance to become the first Galaxy FC champion. He is fighting for the flyweight title until the of the year!


Jake Rosholt vs Ivan Drakkar

In the main event we were also supposed to watch a striker vs grappler game but Rosholt, the grappler, didn’t try a single takedown the entire fight and this poor strategy cost very much to him since his opponent score 20 head punches in the first round, nailing the coffin in the last minute with a TKO. Drakkar will be fighting for the Middleweight title soon, so keep a look on this guy cause he will knock out his opponents until he gets the belt!


And that’s it, folks. I hope you can enjoy it! The next event is still a little far but starting from the 3rd things are gonna heat up and things are gonna move a lot quicker. This event was just a little taste of the greatness that is coming to hit the Tycoon world!

See ya
