4/33/08 Some new dates for the Team. Steve Torres will be fighting Chaos in the Cage May 10th in Lancaster, Tony, Gregg, and Seth will be fighting @ KOTC on May 15th San Manuel.
4/21/08 Seth"2-Quick"Dikun stepped up on 10 hours notice to fight Sean Dizzay @ 145 when he fights at 135 as a favor for KOTC get to the weighs and weigh in and Sean decided he didn't want to get another lose I mean fight. So Tony was the only one that fought that night.
Tony had changes in his opponent all the way till the day of weigh ins. Wade Hamilton stepped and took the fight and was TKOed in 1:58 in the 1st for his efforts. It was a good learning experince for myself and Tony. I think he will fit in @ Team Wildman not only did he perform well, he listened well. We will fine tune him and he is going to be a monster.
4/15/08 Next up fight nights at the shrine. Go to kingofthecage.com for info I will be out there with one of our newest fighters Tony"Kryptonite"Lopez. Come and support......
4/14/08 Had a great weekend of fights Sat. night at the CXF in Upland Steve Torres took on Lonnie Wright from Apex Jiu Jitsu from the begining Steve was the hunter stalking Lonnie and put on a stand up clinic, Lonnie being a southpaw threw Steve off a little and took a few on the chin. About 2:10 in Steve landed a solid left hook straight right combo that put lonnie on the floor he bounced right back up only to catch a knee followed by 2 punches for the KO Steve wins 2:15 1st round KO.
Andy had his hands full on Sunday @ the Irvine Marriot with bad ass Travis McRoberts from HB training center hell training with guys like Rob McCullogh, Zach Light, Tiki you knew he was going to be tough. They came out like they had both talked bad about each others momma's. Travis had a slight edge towards then end of the round with about 2 seconds left BOOM Andys catches him with a mean right to the chin Travis is out on the canvas....... We thought the fight was over but I guess he was saved by the bell. Before round 2 started Andy is on his chair and leans in to me and tells me he broke his right hand. I ask him do you want me to stop the fight he tells me, hell no fighters fight...... A true WARRIOR. So for the next 2 rds they beat the hell out of each other Andy used more kicks, knees, and elbows and was having a hard time with his right. It was a all out war with Andy coming up short with a 29-28 dec. loss. This kid is an inspiration to all of us. We then went and spent all night in the ER. Then to top it off he wakes up and goes to school the next day. Oh yeah he is still a senior in high school........
4/1/08 Happy April fool's day........ Next up we have Steve Torres at CXF in Upland. We head to Irvine for the Battle in the Ballroom.Then we head up to Oregon for the Sportfight Matt Lindlands show. Then we head over to San Diego for the Total Combat where Seth Dikun takes on Dave Hisquerdo for the 135lb title.
I haven't pulled one prank today been kind of down. Anyway onto the news. I was victorious in my debut @ EliteXC not in the fashion I wanted though I was fighting a guy who didn't know the rules. Bryan had a bad night against Chael, thats all that happen it wasn't the stage the opponent he just had an off night plain and simple. He will be back stronger than ever.
The show at San Manuel had some ups and downs a couple lessons were learned. Its hard having a full time job and still trying to train full time as well. Lamar had one of the craziest accidents ever he pulled his own shoulder out of socket. Crazy huh...... He will heal and be back.
Lucas on the other hand had a good first fight back after his lay off. It wasnt his prettiest victory, but he won and thats what he needed. Miguel came out ready to bang Lucas did a good job of blocking and slowing miguels tempo down once Lucas tripped him to the ground it was one sided. The commision F'ed up and stopped the 1st round at 3 min in it was scheduled for 3x5min. Lucas had just passed went knee on belly and the bell rang. Round 2 was the same Lucas banged a little secured a TD and passed, mounted and let the onslaught begin till Cecil stopped it.
Rick Legere from John Munoz's camp had came up a few times for some cross training and looked great with his TKO win over always tough Gabe Lara.
