FX3 15 July Bracknell Fight Report
What a night of first class MMA and Cage Kickboxing action that was on show. The night was very promising for the UK MMA scene and showed a lot of promising fighters coming through.
Semi Pro MMA U93K
Scott Taylor v Thomas Maguire
Very good first fight of the night with Thomas Maguire who fights out of the Tsunami gym. Thomas won by Ground and Pound in what was a very fast paced fight with both fighters very schooled on the ground. Although with Pierra Guillet (Cage Rage fighter) in his corner Thomas had the edge with a lot of good advice coming from his corner, which proved to be the edge for Thomas on the ground.
Cage Kickboxing U64K
Rob Nisham v John Healey
A very even match up with some very good action. John Healey won by Judges decision.
Pro MMA U84K
Rich Austin v Geoff Hayes
I suppose every fight night has to have a decsion that was against the run of the fight. This fight was very quick and lasted seconds with Geoff Hayes coming out strong and KNOCKING OUT Rich by Ground and Pound. Rich won by Default.
Pro MMA U65.8K (E.M)
Chris Freebourne v Alex Owen
This was the first elimantor fight for the vacent U65.8K title, another fast paced and very entaining fight with Alex winning by Choke. Although this fight could have gone either way.
Cage Kickboxing U90K
Andy Jardine v Kazys Grigulanias
Another Good bout with promoter/fighter Andy Jardine just nicking it by jugdes card. This was a slug fest with Andy being a rock that was not moving and proving that he has a good chin. Credit must go to Kazys who gave as good as he got and then some. He was unlucky in a fight that could have gone either way.
Pro MMA U70K
John Gisby v A J Wen
A promsing win for A J on his debut with a wonderfull choke. Watch out for him in the future.
Pro MMA U77K
Wesley Felix v Jon Hathaway
An easy and comfortable win for Jon who dominated the fight. The experience in the cage and better conditioning of Jon proved to be the things that tipped it his way. John won by choke out.
Hopefully Wesley can bounce back from this and improve on his weaknesses.
Pro MMA U65.8K
Phil Else v Valdo Menzes
Quite a strange fight that saw the Ref standing both fighters up from the ground. This caused Valdo throwing his teddy out of the pram and storming off like a school girl.
I hope I never have to see any thing like this ever again.
The fight was awarded to Phil.
Pro MMA U70K
John O’Malley v Sami Berik
A very good fight with Sami ending up in victory
Pro MMA U61.2K
Kamon Rana v Billy Harris
A ref stoppage after a flurry of blows saw Billy winning this one.
Cage Kickboxing U77K
Nigel Yardie v Paul Daley
A very fast paced fight with both fighters showing a lot of skill. Nigel used a lot of ariel attacks which when connected were some good strikes.
Unfortunately for Nigel and the fan’s, Nigel could not continue as he broke his foot near the end of the 1st round.
Pro MMA U77K
Nigel Whitear v Mick Broster
Both of these fighters wanted to slug it out and it was a very entertaining fight with lots of of big bombs from both fighters. The fight ended with a DQ for Nigel after a stomp to the head. A very sad way for this fight to end.
Pro MMA U65.8K EM
Aaron Blackwell v Jordon Miller
In the 2nd eliminator of the night for the vacent title saw Aaron come out victorious against a very strong Jordon Miller from Poole Ju-Jitsui.
FX Title Fight U70K
Mark Spencer v Oliver Ellis (Champ)
This was the main event of the night and what a fight. Oliver took this to the ground and dominated Mark. Mark worked hard but the skill and experience seemed to pay off for Oliver who ended this with a lovely Ground and Pound.
Overall this was a great night with some very good evenly matched fights. I hope that some more of you will be attending the next event in November.
