(PRESS RELEASE) -- Friday, October 14, 2011 9:00pm ET featuring
Clash at the Kilt II from Tilted Kilt, Elgin, Il. In the main event
of the night, former Cut Throat MMA Light Heavyweight Champion
David "Baby Ruth" Booth (4-0) takes on Carlson Gracie's Sam
Ferguson (2-0) for the recently vacated Cut Throat MMA Middleweight
Championship. Booth is coming off a stunning upset victory over
previously undefeated Bill Johnson back in March, and Ferguson is
looking to keep his perfect record unblemished and take home the
Cut Throat gold. In the co-main event of the night, Mike "The
Wardog" Reid (42-4, 16 KO) takes on St. Louis' Quinton O'Brien
(13-3, 4 KO) in a Muay Thai fight. These two Muay Thai standouts
are eager to finally get the chance to fight, after missing out on
a TBA championship showdown.
- Friday, October 14, 2011 10:00pm ET featuring Clash Epic Fighting 8, from the Sheraton Hotel, San Diego, CA. 30 fighters from over 14 different training camps will return to San Diego and fight in the Southern California Championships for CAMO’s State Amateur Tournament. Winners from the tournament matches will face Northern California’s Champions in the State Championship on December 3rd, 2011. Jamie Reyes (0-0, pro, 2-1 amateur) from 1-ON-1 Fight Co. makes his pro debut against Miguel Lavelle (0-1) out of Victory MMA in a bantamweight contest. Even though Reyes has never had a professional fight, his team 1-ON-1 Fight Co. has had several fighters fight for Epic Fighting. Reyes will have the element of surprise and also be able to draw on his training partners experiences when he steps into the cage. Reyes should have a good standup game, especially boxing, so look for him to throw punches in bunches at Lavelle. For Lavelle, he has the upper hand in experience and although it is only by one fight, it is still valuable and something he might look to exploit. Also, Lavelle comes from a great camp in Victory MMA home to some great MMA talents so expect Lavelle to be well versed in all aspects of MMA. He might try and look for a takedown early to negate Reyes' striking. In the co-main event, and part of the Epic Fighting Tournament, Chris Bonilla (5-1 amateur) from Paragon Fight Team battles Francisco "Panchito" Castro (1-1 pro, 4-3 amateur) from USMC in a featherweight tilt. Bonilla is a submission machine getting 4 out of his 5 victories by tapping out his opponent. He will look to do the same against the gritty Castro whose best attribute is his cardio and who likes to wear down his opponents. Castro will be looking to take Bonilla into deep waters and test his conditioning, while Bonilla will look for a fast submission to ending things quickly.
- Saturday, October 15, 2011 8:00pm ET featuring Warrior One MMA
Reloaded, United Bank Center, Miami, FL. Co-Main, Luis "Baboon"
Palomino and his Orlando counterpart Edson "Little Tiger" Berto.
This match was originally to happen under the Bellator banner.
Through good relations and working closely with many of Bellator's
counterparts, Miami fans will now experience this explosive matchup
close to home with W-1. After the disappointing news that Jeff
Monson had to withdraw from the bout with Gabriel Gonzaga, Marcus
"The Irish Hand Grenade" Davis, moves to main event status as he
takes on fellow Massachusetts native and TUF/UFC contender Chuck
"Cold Steel" O'Neil. Presented for Fox Sports Net, this nationally
televised epic battle promises to live up to the hype as it
replaces the former main event. Mr. Gonzaga will now headline the
next W-1 event on February 25, 2012. Included on this star-studded
W-1 card is middleweight star and MMA-Masters standout Valdir
"BBMonster" Aruajo, making his official W-1 debut against perennial
contender Mike "El Gringo Diablo" Bernhard. This long-awaited
matchup promises to be the Fight Of The Year. Additionally featured
is 6-1 welterweight John Manley of Team Link in Massachusetts will
take on 4-2 American Top Team (ATT) alumni Sabah Homasi. Lone
Canadian and 4-2 W-1 veteran Tom "the Bomb" Waters and South
Florida MMA Academy's Alan Arzeno will battle for North American
bragging rights. Rounding out the main card will be JP Rees (ATT)
vs. Taylor Callens, Nathen Coy (ATT) vs. Anderson Melo (Guerreiro
Team), Bruno Reis Da Maria vs. Kenny Moss (Fighters Quest), Joe
Watson vs. Frank Carrillo (MMA-Masters).
