Author:

That wasn’t the start I hoped to open the year. We had our worst ratings and a 962 people attendance. First time we didn’t have a sold out arena. But statistics apart, from my point of view, this event wasn’t so bad. Actually we had some good fights that surely entertained the fans! Rastila and Rondo are closing in the title shot and McDonald finally getting his title shot in the featherweight division. So don’t let the ratings fool you and enjoy the Galaxy 6: Supernova Review!


‘’The Hood Rat’’ Hoodie Ratty vs Bryce ‘’ Lucky Limes’’ ODonnell

Ratty starts the first round scoring a takedown but he didn’t do anything and the referee intervenes. Another takedown but this time he standup. Crazy? A third takedown and again he standup while on top! Definitely crazy! Once on the feet ODonnell showed his striking skills and start dominating the fight. He even scored a takedown in the end of the round to win it. The second round started with Miller better. Especially when he moved the fight into clinch but then he decided to drag the fight to the mat! Bold! And he kept dominating the fight! The fight comes back to the feet and once again Odonell gets a takedown to win the round. The last round Miller got an early takedown and stayed on top the entire round to win the fight by UD! Huge victory for Miller and second lost in Galaxy FC for Ratty!


Aidan ‘’Little Viking’’ Patrick vs Terry Picket

Patrick a muay thai fighter fighting a grappler and his first move in his MMA career is a takedown! After that picked managed to pull guard and after some sub attempts he finally gets a victory in his career and finishes Patrick with a kneebar! His mother is probably very proud right now! And to celebrate his first victory, he also scored the sub of the night! Congratulations to Picket!


Kane Alexander vs Terry Cheese

The fight started with a slow pace. Both with a counter tactic until Cheese scores a takedown but Alexander manages to get up really quick. Some more exchanges and Cheese gets a takedown into mount! He eventually takes Alexander’s back and starts trying to get a RNC. He is getting close to it but the round is ending. Will he do it? He sunk the choke and Alexander is forced to tap 3 seconds to the end of the round! Nice finish by Cheese that now has a positive record!


Grigorio ‘’I Came’’ Escobar vs Grzegorz ‘’Dusiciel’’ Schab

The Bell rings and Schab gets an early takedown.  The entire round he stayed in Escobar’s guard, trying sub after sub but no luck. The second round Escobar start showing some decent striking skills with punches and kicks until Schab gets a takedown. After that, the round was pretty much about the same as the first. The final and decisive round started very slow. Escobar not doing much while was trying some sloppy takedowns until Escobar connects with a cross that rocked Schab! Then he throws a monster head kick that knocked out cold Shab! Wow, what a great victory! Escobar is vicious! The fight almost won the fight of the night but maybe next time. Escobar is climbing quickly to the top. I bet some guys are really worried right now!


Noam ‘’The British Young Gun’’ Devitt vs Carlton Leach

The first round was insane! Both of the fighters are strikers but they kept trying takedowns and then standup. At some point when they were on the feet, Leach dropped Devitt with a nice combination! A few seconds later he rocked Devitt with a head kick! Will he finish the fight? No! He scores a takedown! What a boner killer! The second round starts and Leach comes really aggressive! His corner gave him some dope! In less than a minute he lands a brutal head kick that almost knocked Devitt but a couples of punches later the fight was over! Leach is nasty! The fight of the night is definitely in good hands!


‘’The Idol’’ Erik Trent vs Kieran ‘’Kiko’’ Stevenson

I just want to say right away that Stevenson was high tonight. The guy is an excellent boxer and has no ground skills. But the only thing he did was try 5 times a takedown! This is not California. Weed is illegal here! Trent starts trying to move the fight into clinch but Stevenson take care of that for him! How nice! A few elbows and knees later, that’s all over. I feel ashamed for Stevenson in this fight. Trent, in the other hand, got an excellent victory and now he is very close to the top of the division!


Jake Rosholt vs ‘’Highlander’’ Ellic McCrae

In this fight all the rounds were about the same. First a few exchange with Rosholt a little better then he gets a takedown and stays on top the entire round using some good ground and pound to score a solid and easy UD victory. McCrae tried some submissions a landed a sweep at the end of the second round but other than that, he didn’t do much. Rosholt goes back to the top of the middleweight division and one more victory might get him a title shot! But let’s see how it goes.


KJ ‘’Pride Of North Dakota’’ Blues vs Doug ‘’The Glaswegian Nightmare’’ McDonald

This was the beat the crap of your opponent fight of the night! McDonald was nasty on the feet and landed all 80 strikes he attempted and also stuffed 9 takedowns of Blues! He almost finished the fight in the first round after rocking Blues with a head kick but he managed to survive. Unfortunately for him, he didn’t get the same luck in the second round. In less than a minute, McDonald landed a head kick that knocked down Blues. A few seconds later he landed another killer head kick! Blues staggered for a while like a drunk hobo while McDonald gave an evil smile and then felt face plant to the floor! Wow, that’s definitely the KO of the night! McDonald also won a chance for the title against Kimble! I can’t wait to see that fight!


Rajon Rondo vs ‘’The Specialist’’ Vladimir Oro

Like McDonald versus Blues fight, this was also a one side fight. Rondo took one round to punch his way to the victory! He landed 26 of 33 punches with an additional of 3 leg kicks. He also stuffed 6 takedowns from Oro. At the end of the first round, he landed a combo that rocked Oro, and then he connects with a big hook sending Oro to the ground! A few more strikes and the fight is over! Oro will sure need a specialist to fix his smashes face. Rondo now is in the top of the bantamweight division and might get a title shot soon!


Doctor Gonzo vs Veikko ‘’Kaupungin Tavoittelevin P’’ Rastila

Man, today wasn’t a good day for grapplers! In the main event we also had a striker beating a grappler. In this case took less than 2 minutes! Rastila connected some good strikes while stuffing some takedowns and about one minute and a half he threw a vicious combo almost knocking out cold Gonzo. Rastila followed him with punches looking to finish the fight! Gonzo flail his arms trying something here but by that time he was probably seeing the holy spirit of Mary and that made the referee stops the fight! Wow, Gonzo will have a headache for a week! Rastila is really close to the top and might get a title shot soon!


As you can see, if you read the entire review, we had some good fights! The new guys delivered and fought well. Not to mention Rondo and Rastila that make a point tonight, saying they are ready to fight in the top! We also had McDonald once again nailing the KO of the night and getting a show for the title! Bottom line, despite of the ratings, there is no regrets. Once again you guys proved that you want it! There is a lot to come this year so stay tuned and give your best in training because hard work will pay off!


See ya
