Talisson Teixeira

Country - Brazil
Weight Class - Heavyweight
Age : 24
Promotion - LFA
Team - Team Lucas Mineiro
Record : 6-0

Difficult to tell how good this guy is to be honest as nobody is willing to fight him. Still he looks promising and at 6'8 he's absolutely fucking enormous. Has power, just piles forward and KO's people who seem to instantly wonder why the fuck they agreed to this. Haven't seen anything of his BJJ yet but I do know he's a black belt, so it doesn't look like it'll be a Robelis Despaigne situation if he ends up on his back.

Heavy rumours about Jacobe Smith, Eliezer Kubanza and Kevin Vallejos too but not confirmed yet.
 

I was really impressed with Stan "The Drill" Dorsainvil tonight. 24 years old, 5'10 LW. Haitian-American fighting out of Combat Club in Florida.

He beat the absolute shit out of the very solid Cedric Katambwa and showed a lot of good qualities in the process. Absolutely relentless pace, great cardio, grappling and striking chops, a good chin, and tremendous potential

I will be watching his next fight with great interest. I think the sky's the limit for this kid.

3-0... He sounds like the right guy to test Artem Vakhitov 2-1 who also has only 3 MMA fights for DWCS. (Artem Vakhitov bragged that he will beat Alex again this time not in KB let him try)
