Thank you fans for coming out on Saturday for Warriors Collide 7. DK Photo will have pictures and video up as soon as possible- 7,000 pictures were snapped at the event. Anyone interested in hard copy print of an individual fight can buy them from Dave directly.
Young Tigers Samuel Alonzo made his record 3-0, winning by decision over debuter Edir Terry of FFA. Edir took the fight after Javier Baez became injured.. you should expect to see Samuel and Javi locking it up in the future! Both guys want a chance to take down the other, expect fireworks fans!
MJ Holland of Fizogen, had his debut spoiled by Mustafa Malik. Mustafa, who trains under Mark Sinopoli , moves to 3-0. This one ended in decision, we are looking forward to having both these guys in another WC event!
Sheldon Cobbler had to work extra hard to improve his record to 2-1. Steve Scobe’s debut earned him a few stitches, sure to add a little more fuel to his training. I’ve no doubt he’ll be in Bears Den working hard with profighter Chris DeCaro.
A Big thanks to John Hangual of FFA for offering his handy work, and it paid off for him! FFA and Young Tigers agreed on this match at about 5:30, just showing that you NEVER KNOW when you might get a chance to step in the ring. Being prepared, its just part of being a fighter!! John moves his KB record to 3-0 vs Alexis Ogando 2-1.
In our Grappling match.. Pablo Popovich’s student, Fred Moncaio, redeems himself by earning the win against Tough Academy’s Mike Langebeck. Fred was very disappointed in his last match at BAB2 and promised us a win at WC7! Great work ethic by both teams!
Greg Pesetsky of Round 2 Kickboxing puts his debut loss behind him by nabbing the win against debuter Jeff Jones. Jeff got injured early in the fight and could not continue after the first round. While incredibly disappointed, Jeff showed tons of heart!
Calvin Higgins of ATA and Jarrod Arndt of Shihan Moti MMA were intense. Jarrod didn’t have an ounce of quit in him and Calvin wasn’t backing down either… a little blood here never hurt anyone! Calvin edged Jarrod with the win, making him 1-0 and Jarrod 2-2.
We at LHP are sad to see him go but will be cheering him on: Alan Arzeno of South Florida MMA. Alan is one of those guys that when you see him in the ring he’s just a beast, and when you get to know him is an absolute gentleman. Getting a guy to step in with him was no easy task. Alan was 4-0 coming into this fight, 3 of those by TKO. KO Club Danny Lemo stepped up to the challenge! First round these two were banging it out, in the second Alan did what Alan does: throws bombs to put you out. Alan ended the fight by TKO. He completes his amateur status with a 5-0 record and debuts as a pro mma fighter on Feb 14 in Daytona Beach FL. All the best to you, Alan!!!
Co Main Event: Raul Irizarry Inferno MMA 2-0 vs Denis Hernandez 4-1 FFA
This is the BEST Raul we have seen yet! Denis is a warrior!! At one point the two were clinched and fell with Raul on top of Denis- both legs under his body. This could easily have been a career ending fall blowing out both knees. Luckily, Denis jumped up and shook it off. AMAZING!!! Superman punches, body kicks, leg kicks, this match had it all! In the end Raul got the win moving to 3-0! Denis will have to find one more victory in order to regain his chance at a title. After the fight, he told us that keeping his mind on the chance at a belt is what motivated him to keep going!
Left Hook SuperFight: 140lb Warriors Collide Belt.
Caleb Archer 6-2 ATT vs Carlos Garcia Young Tigers 6-2
Anyone wondering where the superstars we watch today learned to be so technical in the stand up game, needs to see the video of this match. Both young men came to collect that belt! Trading punching combo’s and kicks to the ribs kept the 4 rounds of action very close. At times you might feel bad for the judges, having to score a fight that was this close. Either way you knew one camp was going to be upset. That night, Caleb got the better of the fight and went home with that beautiful belt!!
Congratulations to all of you WARRIORS!! YOU ROCK!!!
