HFC 14 - Tanner vs Tragedy III - Review

 
Hello HARDCORE MMA fans!  Welcome to another post fight review from the HFC editorial staff.
 
Tanner vs Tragedy (Title Fight)
 
Tonight's Main event is a title fight between two long time rivals in the 185 division.  Sitting at a 1-1 record against each other, this title fight was pitted to be another great one with either fight showing the capability to win.  
Unfortunately for Tragedy, Rob Tanner was able to turn his lights off with a nasty jab for the KO victory at less than 2 minutes into the first round.  The Champ is still here and has only one question... Who's next?  
Congratulations to Rob Tanner on a great title defense of the middleweight belt!
 
Von Ryan vs Hooker
 
In our co-main event of the evening, two veterans of the welterweight division squared off to see who was the better fighter.   These two crafty veterans spent the fight on the ground as neither was able to do anything standing up.  Larsson, spending all of his time dodging blows by Von Ryan and shooting in for takedowns, managed to get the fight to the ground frequently.  Once there, he was by far the more aggressive fighter although Von Ryan showed some nice transitioning.  Both fighters spammed submission attempts, but neither able to lock anything in.  11 combined attempts between the two of them, it was ultimately Larsson posting up some nice ground and pound that gave him the not even close unanimous decision on the score card.  
Gunner Larson wins by unanimous decision.
 
Hooker vs Silva
 
In a lightweight clash between two veteran fighters, Hooker and Silva squared off in what was sure to be a slug fest.  Each fighter known as an excellent striker, Hooker focused in boxing as Silva focused in MT.  
The fight started off with a bang as Hooker cracked Silva with a quick jab that cut Silva's nose.  Shortly after, Silva took it to the clinch where the fight stayed until Hooker was able to pull Silva to guard and get a quick guillotine locked in for the quick first round victory.  
After the fight, a pissed off Silva said "I should have never lost to this bum."    
Makes you wonder if there may be a rematch down the road?
 
Putins vs Marley
 
In a light heavyweight fight, and our last high profile fight of the night, Habib Putins faced off against Rakeem Marley.  We asked Marley before the fight if he had been smoking during training, and he would not comment, but did crack a wry smile.  I guess I'll leave that one open for interpretation.  
Okay, brace yourselves folks!  This fight had a LOT going on and will take a while to digest, so grab a beer and continue on...  
After a failed takedown attempt by Putins, Marley drops Putins with a combo that cut him and put him in la la land.  A few seconds later, after Marley allowed Putins to his feet like a gentleman, he cracks Putins with a monster hook that put him to sleep.  The ref jumped in to check on the fighter who showed no signs of life for a moment.  Marley flexed, grinned at the crowd, and soaked it all in as the crowd went wild..  
Ok, so I had to fluff it up a little bit.. otherwise it was.. And Marley cracks him with a hook and that's it!  23 second KO for Marley!
