XKO was at Texas Live! with 10 fights. The show was called XKO 47: Friday night fight night. I think Texas live is a definite upgrade to the Gas Monkey venue. The Arlington complex is a Sports play ground. Its just restaurants, drinks, and giant TVs, and they try to mix the outdoor with the indoor as best as they can. XKO is such a strong promotion. They dont use a lot of gimmicks, and they just put on good fights. They are not afraid of having an all female prelim card and a female main-card all in one night, bold, I love it read more

So XKO hit us with “XKO: Summer bash”. Also known as XKO 46. and I really like the XKO promotion, maybe because its my local promotion, maybe because I like the little themes that they come up with, and maybe because I like the format. – They sprinkle Muay Thai events in the fightcard to off-set some of the more grapple-heavy bouts.

Anyway, So the show wasn’t around the Arlington area this time. This time it was at “Gas Monkey Live” in Dallas and I am not a fan of this place holding MMA events. It was weird, with a huge bar dividing the cheap seats and you have to order your food from the kitchen, at the bar. The cage seemed really far away, and Its like, you pay money to be in an area that they just try to sell you stuff read more

Check out the XKO 45 Main card

So XKO 45 took place on 4/27/19 and that was a fantastic show. The XKO events are always organized and seem to have an interesting feel to them. This show was in the new Texas Live complex which – I heard will be the biggest entertainment complex in the state of Texas. The square cage was outdoors, with shade from the building being constructed and natural light coming in – The humongous Dallas Cowboys stadium is just in the background. The fighters were local and very very very good. I was impressed with the production team. I was impressed with the pacing, I was impressed with the parking situation read more

XKO 44

XKO 44 took place at Gas Monkey Live in Dallas, Texas, and they played on the gambling theme all night. “Vegas style” fights took place, and there were both Muay Thai and MMA fights on the card.

I missed some of the Amateur fights, but I caught a couple of good ones before they moved to the main card

Muay Thai

Tracey Thompson vs Turbo

Round 1

Both guys look tentative and both started with their hands down. Not very skillful from either guy, and I can picture both of them getting fucked up by a 15 year old in Lumpinee Stadium. The fight seems like a “Muay Thai fight for MMA” and I feel a little bit better watching it, once I figure out what it is. read more
