King of the Cage: Natural Disaster
Postfight Results & Press Release
In the El Paso county Coliseum fighters from across the globe wanted to open the market of texas with a resounding roar! Alaskan Superstar Brian Ryan stepped up to take on one of Arizona’s most developing fighters and in a war of fists the battle was won by boxing pro Ryan. Frank Marquez from Odessa Texas faced off against another of Arizona’s rising stars Joe Vigil to win a decisive first round submission. From Mexico by way of El Paso Texas, home town favorite Miquel Gutierrez showed no mercy against Universal Grappling Academy’s Brent Wooten when a knee to the head got the ref involved to save the Californian for another day. Mike Valdez in a grudge match against El Paso’s own Theo McDonnald answered the boos and hisses by tko-ing the home town favorite by exploding his eye from a very unappealing looking 69 top mount position. Mario Stapel of Frankfurt Germany had a kickboxing party with US kickboxing champion John Cronk ending the fight by a cut to the eye that could not be stopped. Del Hawkins defeats Leo Urquides in the Gladiator Challenge title fight for the 135 weight division. Leo Apparently controlled the fight but could not answer the bell for the second round when his knee came out. Hawkins made his first move as a champ to prove he was one by offering a rematch any time and thanking Urquides for the opportunity. Hugo Sida defeated Tommy Gouge after Gouge arrived that morning on a bus from Oklahoma, but in the total domination of the entire :38 seconds of the fight one must ask if the bus ride made a difference or was Hugo just that freeking good. Tim Persey, known as Big Perm defeated Tony Sylvester in a three round battle that made the roof shake and the fans cheer. With Quinton Jackson in one corner and Dan Bobish in the other it was the match that could have been. Quintons guys came out on top, but both guys are on the way to greatness. Brendan Sequin, one of the worlds best 185 lb fighters faced off against relative newcomer Jared Rollins who had no dust in his attic. Though Brendan came out on top in a beautiful display of skill, natural talent, and power, Jared Rollins is sure to be on the hunt for a rematch as his skills were displayed brilliantly, and only because of my prior knowledge of Rollin’s record did I not think these were two seasoned fighters working to reach the title.
