Ok, I didn’t write about this as it was happening, but now I’ll give a quick synopsis. The fight card was:

Date : Sunday, July 30 2006, Open 14:00 Start 15:00
Place : Makomanai Ice Arena, Sapporo JAPAN

Yusuke Fujimoto vs Bobby Ologun (Special Fight)
Yuki Nimura vs Noboru Uchida
Mighty Mo vs Remy Bonjasky (Revenge Match)
Hong-Man Choi vs Akebono (Revenge Match)
Glaube Feitosa vs Musashi (Revenge Match)
Peter Aerts vs Gary Goodridge (Revenge Match)
Poul Slowinski vs Tatsufumi Tomihira (Super Fight)
Bjorn Bregy vs Tsuyoshi Nakasako (Super Fight)
Freddy Kemayo vs Hiromi Amada (Super Fight)

I was looking forward to the Peter Aerts/Gary Goodridge fight It was a good fight on Gary Goodridge’s part, but he just couldn’t compete with Peter Aerts. After 3 rounds, the winner was Peter Aerts by judges decision.

Bobby Olugun vs Yusuke Fujimoto was an entertaining fight, although a complete mess. I don’t know what Bobby Oluguns problem was. The only thing I saw from him was a decent flying knee. Anyway, yeah, Yusuke Fujimoto by 3 round judges decision.

Hong-Man Choi vs Akebono – Choi by 2nd round knockout.

Poul Slowinski vs Tatsufumi Tomihira – good fight.. Slowinski by 3 round judges decision.

Bjorn Bregy vs Tsuyoshi Nakasako – I missed the very beginning of this fight, I came in and saw what looked like Bjorn Bregy fighting some dude with a Evan Tanner hairdo. Yeah, Bregy by 1st round KO.

Freddy Kemayo vs Hiromi Amada – Amada by 3 round judges decision.

Noboru Uchida vs Rikijyo – Nobodu Uchida by 2nd round KO.

Mitsugu Noda vs Tsutomo Takahagi – Nodu by 2nd round KO.

All in all, I wasn’t very impressed with the event.

Well this is the first of what will hopefully be many posts on my new MMA/Combat Sports site. I’m going to try to keep this updated with the latest chatter from around the Mixed Martial Arts world. Please feel free to leave comments and speak your mind.  I’ll try to stay on the topic of combat sports as much as possible, however, I may post whatever is on my mind at any given time, whether it relates to combat sports or not. As I type this, I am watching K1 Revenge 2006. I think i’ll start another blog entry for this event, in case I feel like writing something about it. Anyway, thank you for visiting MMA-EXTREME.
