1) JUSTIN JAYNES vs. JUSTIN CHUVEN: Chuven is making his debut in this welterweight fight.
Jaynes is all over Chuven from the start, stopping a takedown attempt, taking his back, and choking him out. (0)
2) BRANDON BUELL vs. MICHAEL BURKE : Middleweights. Burke is debuting, Buell is 1-0.
Burke gets a takedown early and is throwing leather, is just thrown off and Buell takes his back and chokes him out. (0)
3) BENNY VINSON vs. MUJIBAR ABDUL-SALAAM: Black dude trains with Hussein Rashad in the Detroit area.
Vinson opens with a drop kick? Sloppy ground work from both. It slows down and Vinson is in mount, but he gives it up for a guillotine? Then he ends up on top again but in a guillotine with the arm in. Nothing happens for the last minute in that position. 3 minute rounds (thankfully)?
Second round and I'm barely paying attention at this point. Salaam is in the slowest triangle attempt ever. Its like at 1/4 Imes speed. Salaam slams his way out and Vinson goes back for the single. They lie on each other, but the fight is restarted standing! High kick by Salaam. Left hand by Salaam. If only they were in combination. Vinson CHARGES him and Salaam just side steps him. What the hell was that?
Salaam is picking apart the white boy standing. He'd do better if he threw in combination or really went for a finish. Capioera sweeps? James Toney stance? Vinson with a takedown. He jumps back from inside the guard and goes for a leglock. Too bad he fails and gets punched in the face. Ref is way late jumping in at the bell and Vinson eats a heavy knee after the fight is over. Salaam wins. (1) for capioera. Vinson gets to do an interview afterwards? Lame.
4) MIKE SANCHEZ vs. TIM BRADLEY: Timothy Bradley is a world class boxer. Tim Bradley is some white guy with a beard from Indiana and a 0-1 record.
Bradley with the takedown into half guard. Goes into a guillotine. Sanchez taps. (0)
5) ISMAEL PONCHERO vs. BEN LAGMAN: Heavyweights. Lagman is from Detroit and is making his pro debut.
Lagman drops the fat boy with a right hand. He survives and gets knocked down again a few moments later. Lagman is 3-0 as a pro, but does have a loss as an amateur to a 0-2 pro. (0)
6) STEVE ZOROMSKI vs. JOSH BARNES: How many Barnes fights are there on this set?
Zoromski takes a lot of punches and quits in under a minute. Crap. (0)
7) LUIS ALVARADO vs. ZACH KIDD: Two debuts.
"Averado" gets a take down and eventually acquires the armbar from the bottom. Nothing too special. (0)
8) JUSTIN KRUMPLICH vs. BRETT SPARDELLA: Inman is talking about how Krumplich is excellent on his feet. That means he probably wins by KO. I mean, c'mon, like he's really seen this kid in the gym. Spardella is from Dragon's Karate Dojo. Holy shit.
Very excited dudes scrapping out and clearly to gas if this makes it out of the first. Spardella with a takedown, actually. Krumplich doesn't know what to do from his back either. Spardella just keeps grinding down Krumplich too when the fight is stood up. Spardella screws up taking the back and Krumplich is in half guard. That is how the round ends.
Second round! Spardella with a takedown. Standup by ref follows. Krumplich with a hiptoss sorta thing of his own to get this to the mat. Strange amateurish ground work follows. Nothing happens during it. Third round starts with a top end clinch followed by a world class trip takedown into a top of the food chain set of punches to the head by Krumplich. Spardella is gassed. He survives it and this goes the distance. Who cares? Fight sucked, honestly. Krumplich wins. (0)
9) MUHAMMAD EL UNMARI vs. BILLY KIDD: Featherweights. Kidd is listed as 8-0. Note; that is a lie.
The black dude from Detroit is doing some wild shit standup wise. He gets kicked in the face though. Then he dances some. Then he is taken down. Kidd gets mount and this is over after some punches to the face. (0)
10) MATT JAGGERS vs. HUSSEIN RASHAD: Rashad displayed some skills in his debut. Jaggers is fighting in Sengoku. What do you think happened here?
Jaggers is closing in without any headmovement or anything because it is not necessary. Rashad goes for the single and doesn't get it at all. Jaggers terminates the fight later after some separation is made between the two with combination punching. (1)
11) JEREMIAH DAVENPORT vs. MIKE SIXEL: Sixel is from Gresham, OR. Davenport is 1-1. This is the main event, BTW.
Sixel with the takedown, Inman with the hype up for EXC on CBS. Oh man. If they only could have known. Sixel with some taps to the body that are called "heavy shots" by Inman. Lots of strikes, rolls him over into a guillotine, fight over. BUT THERE IS MORE: Sixel then ends up asking for his girlfriend to marry him. How sweet and voyeuristic. (0)
Another fight? Really?
12) SHELDON SPROESSIG vs. ANTOINE SKINNER: Sproessig is 0-1. Skinner is 17-7 supposedly and a Gary Myers product.
Clinch early, wild punches from "Little Rampage", a high kick, Sproessig lands a right hand and drops Skinner in retaliation. Sproessig is in the full guard, but loses the position. In fact, Skinner just gets out from under him and nearly takes his back. They end up standing and Skinner goes for a guillotine, but all that happens is Sproessig's mouthpiece falls out. After its put back in, skinner gets a takedown, back control, some punches, blah blah blah. Sproessig gets stopped as the round ends, and in getting knocked off his opponent, the ref blows out Skinner's knee. (0)
FIGHT OF THE NIGHT: Vinson/Abdul-Salaam
KO OF THE NIGHT: Sproessig/Skinner
SUBMISSION OF THE NIGHT: Sixel/Davenport
OVERALL FOR THE EVENT: 1.5 out of 10. Just not enough of value to keep me interested. I knew nothing more about Jaggers than when I started. Otherwise, lots of no-names and journeymen.
D&R RATING: 3% (2/60)
