How bloody excellent a show will this be? I'm REALLY hoping that someone finds it in their heart to scour the net for a copy of the telecast (hopefully there is one) and makes it available to poor little plebs like me... ;-)
This really does look like a great show. Best of luck to all the fighters, but especially Bruce and Nathan. Bruce is actually in a really good position to win the whole thing, being an alternate, but there are some HUGE names in there!!
And I would rally like it if the TBA was changed to JWP... ;-)
Would LOVE to see Bruce v jens. Would be great to see a MMA guy that has respected stand up go against a stud fighter like Bruce. Then again we saw that v BANG :(
On a side note whats the weight cut?? Roy, anyone?? Jens is a runt fights at 145lb.
I'm keen to see the Nathan in action. One of the BJJ guys saw him doing some bag work on Tuesday night and made the comment to me that he kicks REALLY hard.
Given that Pulver is on the card, and he's very popular I would say the outlook is good.
preacher fight should be around around 70 kgs ???
but the last time i saw Hiroki fight was around 66 kgs so there mite be a catch weight ?
as for nathan his fight should be 85 kgs as he wants to move up in weight a bit
yep was right about Shishido he has been fighting at 66.6 kgs in the past so there mite be a catch weight as preacher now fights at 70 kgs
but here is a pic of F16 vs shishido http://message.axkickboxing.com/images/user_uploaded/scottya/100-0001_IMG_2.JPG
shishido won the fight on points cut F16 a few titmes that night
so if its any thing to go by bruce & shishido fight should end up been a bloodly good elbow fight
the s-cup is at 70kg. bruce's fight is the reserve match for the s-cup. so if someone gets injured either him or shishido will be in.
Nathan has been going really well, but recently he has had no-one his size or bigger to spar with, was holding pads for him this week just for hands and elbows, i predict elbow KO early on. I really think his elbows are the best on the planet.
Watch out for ole laursen too, Ray got him in there and he is a under Rising Promotions management. Look for ole to come to our mega show in december.
i was told that bruce was fighting Hiroki on the show as a extra fight
as for bruce fighting a 67 kgs i havent seen him fight that light in over a year
he has made it up to 70-72 kgs & dosent want to come down in weight
im sure bruce has said he want to fight in the k-1 thats why he moved up in the weight
Hi guys, its a shame but Carnage's fight was not for a world title. the guy they got for him, de castro, has just been fighting for pancrase so they didnt want him to go straight for a Shootboxing Title.
It a shame, but a great win nonetheless. Carnage will be fighting in Ihara's big show in oct. Then on the DEC18th show here on the coast.
Shame ole didnt get a chance to wind up. Souwer got to him quick and put out his fire.
Bruce did well, but was outpointed by the fast shishido.
