LFA 104 Results

I hate being able to chose between which high level promotion I want to watch. LFA and Bellator, get your stuff together. Great fights. I picked the LFA, 1. Because I like to see young talent & 2. I cover LFA. I only cover LFA because they started in Texas BTW. And it looks like I’ll be covering A LOT more Fury FC now that they’re on FightPass and their production has gotten a lot better. Gilbert Melendez was great on the mic, at this show

Main Event

So its a tough time for MMA in Texas right now. There were zero local shows in Texas in the last six months and a lot of fighters are heaving a hard time. Guys can travel to places like Florida to try to get fights, but the fighters would have to have those connections already made, and they’d have to stop working to make the trip. Yes, All local fighters have jobs. The LFA is doing a good job getting fighters out to Sioux Falls, and putting on good shows. It would be nice if they could find a more central location for the fighters – But in this pandemic, you have to take what you can get. read more

Main Event

Chepe Mariscal vs Steve Garcia Jr. – Featherweight

Round 1

Garcia rocks Mariscal twice on the feet and wildness ensues. Garcia look bigger and stronger, but he also looks very sloppy. Mariscal is wild, and breaking all the rules when it comes to fighting, sometimes he gets punished, sometimes he gets away with it.

Round 2

Garcia gets his opponent down and hits Mariscal with some hard ground and pound shots, they stand and Garcia starts to hammer Mariscal with shots up against the cage and the ref stops it.🚩 Garcia Jr. wins by TKO read more

What happened at UFC 261?

What happened at UFC 261?

Can you believe we did this without crowds? Is it too soon though? Should it have been 50% capacity, or how about a lower ticket price for a vaccinated spectators? – That would’ve been a great idea IMO. But…Capitalism…Lets go. The Main card was great. Lots of finishes and tons of talking points

Here are the picks I made

Kamaru Usman vs Jorge Masvidal

Usman is a very very smart fighter, and Masvidal didnt respect that. Usman set up this KO by going for takedowns early. Masvidal had has hands low, waiting for the shot, and wasn’t quick enough to dodge the overhand right, and it seemed like Usman put his whole body into that punch. That punch kind of cooled off everything Masvidal was riding on. -The man went weirdly political for a while, after not wanting to go that route, and he kinda had to eat his words after he said that Usman doesnt punch hard. These things happen to you when you talk a lot. I want to see Usman vs Thompson next. I have no idea where Masvidal goes after this. getting KOed after getting cocky is a hell of a thing… I got this pick wrong read more

UFC 261 Picks

UFC 261 Picks

So the UFC rolls on, fans will be back, and we get another PPV card that we really dont need IMO, Its just fulfilling some kind of contractual deal that the UFC has. I think it’s a matter of time before the UFC stops doing this, because Bellator is getting good, and if Bellator stays on this track, I think they’ll make people wonder why they’re buying UFC PPVs at all. I think the PPV maincard fights are good, everything else is either low level/unknown – That’s what the UFC usually does on PPVs, so they can give the big names “more money” and pay the undercard fighters peanuts. OK… these are tough to pick… I’m guessing the UFC put all the Chinese fighters that were supposed to be on the Chinese version of DWCS on this card. read more

What was unbroken in 2020

What was unbroken in 2020

2020 was Broken, for the most part. But we got fights! This is a list of what was unbroken on the site last year, complete with dates!

Jan. 10 I started off with an Unbroken Pick of Ode Osbourne over Brian Kelleher at UFC 246. That pick was indeed broken. It was a bad pick guys. poor

Jan. 12 At XKO 48 John Pham was unbroken. Also known as John Tao, and John Tao Pham. Tell that man to go by one name

Jan. 18 At LFA 80 Pat Miletich on the broadcast was unbroken

Jan 19 My Carlos Diego Ferreira pick over Anthony Pettis at UFC 246 was unbroken. Perfectly unbroken, Picked the winner, the round and the method. Again my Ode Osbourne pick on that same card was wrong read more

What happened at UFC 252?

What happened at UFC 252?

OK, so the all TV MMA game rolls on. Stipe Miocic took on Daniel Cormier in “The Trilogy” for the UFC heavyweight title, and Stipe was able to come away with the unanimous victory of five rounds. It was a pretty entertaining show. A few heats were broken, but we roll on

Stipe Miocic vs Daniel Cormier

The body shot was still there, the head kick was still there. DC is always trying to convice people that he ‘s fixed things, when its all the same, hes old. Miocic put in a workman like performance to get this victory. IMO Cormier would not have been the greatest Heavyweight in the UFC had he won. Randy Couture is way ahead of him, Stipe is in that argument now, because he tied Randy Couture for the most title fight wins in UFC history. So the fight that I think makes the most sense is Miocic vs Lewis. Stipe already has a win over Ngannou, and Lewis has a win over Ngannou. I like fresh fights in MMA, there are way too many good fighters to be having so many of theses 2s & 3s read more

UFC 252 Picks

UFC 252 Picks

The Trilogy! Its happening, and Daniel Cormier is waaaaay past his retirement date. I guess that retirement date wasn’t really a hard number after all. I predicted that this fight would not happen, BECAUSE of Cormier’s retirement, but here we are… And let me tell you this… I dont even believe Cormier will retire after THIS fight. I think the UFC will have to push him out. It makes no sense for Stipe to fight a guy that will want to call it quits after the fight. Hopefully, the UFC are paying this Firefighter. This fight is essentially a grudge match and not a title fight anymore, with retirement looming over the whole thing read more

LFA 76 Round by Round results

Surprise! The LFA isn’t gonna be on AXSTV anymore. Isn’t that a fantastic surprise? I’m guessing that they want to get into the wrestling market and just be an all wrestling all the time channel, or something like that. I’ve actually kept a cable package just for AXSTV, just for the LFA. That’s it. And whatever platform the LFA is on, I’m going to watch it, just like LFA 76

Pat Miletich really grew on me. Ron Kruck is great at calling fights, and conveying the mood of the area. I’m really gonna miss it read more
