I'm actually quite looking forward to this card, as well as the Santo Curatolo fight on the CFFC card. Probably going to switch between the two cards.

 

[Char Jawz]

These cards are usually pretty good. There will probably be some winners tonight that end up on DWCS. I Remember Demopoulos being on there already.

I remember Joe Gianetti from TUF. He has some talent, but not cool seeing he missed weight. Maybe he should ditch the "Skeletor" nickname and move up to 170, since he's 6' tall.

Why would a regional promotion whos on the rise ever try to build up their card with WMMA fight in the main event? On top of that it's 2 cans that I for one has never heard of.

Especially when LFA has so much great talent and the obvious skill gap between men and women fighting.

I personally don't find WMMA all that interesting, but its got to start somewhere to build it up. I mean, MMA fans on this site want WMMA banished from the UFC to the regional circuit and still complain about it being featured there. People can't have it both ways. I'll watch the card and if this fight is the run of mill WMMA trash within the first round I'll turn it off. And for the record I'm not a WMMA hater. When Ronda got slept by Holm it was probably a top 5 moment watching fights with an amazing natural high afterwards, from what i can remeber anyway. WMMA can produce amazing moments but I do agree the lower tier fighters are disgraceful. My point is, cards like this are for building up women martial artists and thats not a bad thing.

This is actually a really good fight. Godinez is a great prospect and Demopolous is very scrappy and athletic. It's exactly the kind of fight LFA should be promoting.

Demopolous is very scrappy and athletic

Looking forward to seeing her scrap again!

 

[Kryptt]

Fun 1st, good scrambling - Coop up.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

not sure what's up with matchmaking here. both guys look like promising prospects why give them such tough fights so early in their careers?

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

ewing doesn't wanna be in there right now

 

[Kryptt]

Pretty much Coop again.

 

[Kryptt]

Better 3rd for Ewing but wont be enough.

 

[Kryptt]

2nd Free fight up.

 

[Violent Violin]

OK, gonna take a quick nap before the fights starts.

See you guys in a bit...

 

[Kryptt]

Norvill with the bloody eye and now ended by Loveth.



Loved the Marilyn Manson eye-makeup comment too.

 

[TCE]
