Xclusive Cage Warriors USA  August 23 2008 Publicity Shoot : CAGE WARRIORS USA UPCOMING EVENTS
 

UNLEASHED – 23rd AUGUST @ UCF ARENA

The moment you have been waiting for has arrived – Cage Warriors USA and Xtreme Warriors Fighting Championships (XWFC) are excited to release details of their upcoming event, ‘UNLEASHED’ - predicted by many, to be the most exciting MMA event to come to Orlando.

This adrenalin packed event, hosted by none other than UFC star ‘Stephan Bonnar’, will take place on Saturday, 23rdAugust at the new, state of the art, UCF Arena – where doors will open at 5pm, and the first bout is scheduled to start at 6pm.

Over the past several weeks XWFC’s dedicated matchmakers have been working hard to produce a stacked fight card, that is certain to bring the house down and have the 6’500 capacity crowd screaming for more!

The main event of this exciting 12-bout, MMA fight card will be an explosive WELTERWEIGHT TITLE FIGHT, scheduled for 5 x 5 minute rounds, between Florida MMA sensations, Elite XC veteran MIKEY GOMEZ (7-4) and CHARLEY “Bam Bam” BLANCHARD (7-1).  

Matchmaker, Samantha said “When Tommy & Dave said they wanted a welterweight title bout featured on the ‘UNLEASHED’ fight card, I immediately thought of Mikey & Charley – both fighters are tremendously experienced with wins over some exceptional opponents. They are incredibly dedicated, focused and committed to their MMA careers, bring a level of excellence both inside and outside of the cage, and they are definitely ready physically and mentally to take their careers to the next level. I am truly excited to be able to bring this title fight to XWFC.”

Also on the card will be Mark Serkez and Gareth Joseph, two of the most dominating 185’ers in Florida.  They are set to battle it out, for what is expected to be a stand up brawl, as both fighters set their sights on a XWFC Middleweight title shot next year.

And, Bruce “The Noose” Connors (5-0) known by many as ‘The Guillotine King’ following 4 impressive wins by way of the guillotine, will take on submission specialist James “The Bones” Austin (4-0).  This well matched bout holds no predictions other than - in the words of legendary ring announcer Michael Buffer, “someone’s ‘0’ has gotta go”.

 

XWFC are pleased to also welcome back Kevin Abrante and Brian Eckstein, who both successfully fought at Cage Warriors USA’s inaugural ‘Battle Royale’ event in March, and are expected to have their loyal fan base back on their feet, chanting their names, as they once again bring everything they have to the cage!

 Mike Bruno, unarguably one of the toughest 145’ers in Florida, with an impressive 6-2 record, is also confirmed to make his XWFC debut appearance, along with MMA fan favorites Jason Carapelluci, Daniel Lovett, Jason Patino, Glenn Mincer, Zach Knight and Justin Goodall.

And as XWFC continues to support future MMA stars - Corey Krebs, Brandon Ocasio, Jim Alers, Jeremy LaRochester, Steve Mogerman and Slade Massie are confirmed to make their pro debut appearances on the card.

‘UNLEASHED’ is set to be an exhilarating night, with a combination of intensifying fights including a welterweight title bout, a star studded celebrity audience (announcements soming soon), an array of events leading up to the show PLUS prizes and competitions normally unseen at an MMA event. 

Tickets will be released on Ticketmaster, Friday, 27th June 2008, and are expected to sell out fast.

Official event poster, fight card, ticket details and VIP guest list are expected to be released in coming weeks.

Check out the photos blood, broken hands and eyes swollen shut. The near capacity crowd was cheering for their favorites. The highlight of the evening was when chants of USA USA, USA where being chanted at ear deafening heights for the fighters from the USA vs Ireland and Britain.

  Another of the headline UK vs USA fights of the inaugural event for Cage Warriors in
the USA is Jim Wallhead (12-4-0) vs Charles Blanchard (6-1-0) in a Welterweight bout. 

Wallhead is a two time British Champion and is famous for winning the 2h2h 183lbs
Road to Japan tournament in 2006 and is a poular figure with Cage Warrior fans in the
UK. Wallhead made his name due to his high impact mix of slams, takedowns and
punishing ground and pound. With wins over UFC veterans Jason Tan & Steve Lynch,
Wallhead has rightfully found his way into the top 10 European rankings and will be
looking for his first win stateside on March 29th.

However, Charles Blanchard is in the midst of a three fight winning streak and will be
gunning for the biggest win of his career to date when he faces Wallhead at Battle Royale.
A native of Florida, and a regular on the local circuit, Blanchard has torn through his
opposition with all his wins coming in the first round and his only defeat being at the
hands of veteran UFC TUF 6 veteran Ben Saunders.

Blanchard has been preparing for this fight by training with the American Top Team and
will no doubt be looking to use his wrestling prowess to take down Wallhead and use his
ground and pound which has finished off several previous opponents.

ShowTime Tarver vs Woods : Title Night in Tampa
Story By Nate Johnson  Photos by: dkphoto1
24/Seven wasn’t ring side, but rather podium side for the press conference to announce TNT, Title Night in Tampa, to be held April 12th at the St. Pete Times Forum. Billed as a thrilling and explosive boxing championship doubleheader, the fight’s press conference was a precursor to different worlds colliding. The first championship fight of the doubleheader will pit WBC titleholder “Bad” Chad Dawson against former world champion “The Road Warrior” Glen Johnson. Not only do these two come from different worlds, with Dawson from Hartsville, South Carolina and Johnson from Clarendon, Jamaica, they are also on opposite ends of their boxing careers. The age of these two fighters is certainly the glaring difference with Dawson still at the fresh age of 25, and Johnson at a seasoned 39. Johnson has also had more than twice as many fights as Dawson over his career. Another difference was apparent at the press conference, Dawson was absent recovering from illness giving only Johnson an opportunity to promote and give his proposed outcome of the upcoming fight. As you would imagine, Johnson feels that he can turn back the clock to defeat his younger opponent. That’s not out of the realm of possibility since Johnson has had victories in recent years over such outstanding boxers as Clinton Woods, Roy Jones Jr. and Antonio Tarver. These victories did come however, in 2004 against three men that are closer in age to Johnson. Johnson enters this match riding a streak of three victories by knockout over Montell Griffin, Fred Moore, and Hugo Pineda. With Dawson, Johnson could be in for a much tougher battle. After his title defense against Jesus Ruiz on June 9th 2007, broadcast on Showtime, Boxing News praised Dawson by saying, “Bad Chad may be the best pure boxer in the game today.” A victory over Johnson would go a long way in convincing others of that statement. 

The second exchange of gloved fury and what most will call the main event will see IBO champion and well recognized Antonio “the Magic Man” Tarver against IBF world title holder Clinton Woods. The two men both hold title belts, and both are known for being so called good guys in the sport, although they go about it in different ways. After those couple of similarities, they have few things in common. In a sport where nicknames sometimes hold sway over boxing prowess, Clinton Woods is less known for his nicknames “Clint” and “Super Clinton”, and more for his toughness. Hailing from Sheffield in the United Kingdom, Woods is a mild mannered and unassuming individual on a personal level. He is the type of guy you want to sit down and have a pint with at his local pub back in his hometown. He is also the type of guy you want to have on your side if a fight breaks out in said pub. In the ring his unassuming demeanor turns into dogged determination. He displays toughness that the English boxers are recognized for. We need not have long memories to reminisce over the Floyd Mayweather verses Ricky Hatton fight to see an example of that toughness and determination trade marking these English fighters. Will Woods put up that type of fight against Tarver? Woods thinks he’ll fair even better, winning the fight. For Woods, he hopes the old adage that a boxer is only as good as his last fight applies, since he was out of the ring due to injury for a year. After his return, he displayed the qualities previously mention to win a unanimous decision over Julio Cesar Gonzalez back on September 29th of 2007. Going the distance may continue to be his best strategy against Tarver. He is slightly younger than his opponent being 35 verses 39 for Tarver, indicating that outlasting “The Magic Man” may be the strategy that Woods employs. Tarver voiced his strategy at the press conference saying he was “looking for a knockout. At 39, I’m not looking to go 12 rounds, I want to get it over early.” Tarver’s desire for a knockout echoed that of promoter Gary Shaw who asked Woods what type of pillow he liked so that he could have one provided for him in his corner. Looking in Woods direction he then explained, “Since your going to be going to sleep during the fight.” It’s that type of bravado that appears to separate these two camps more than anything else. When we asked Woods what he thought the biggest difference was between American Boxers and English he stated, “With the athletes, the sports guys, it seams that the Americans are better at talking. They must be born with the ability to trash talk, to bait others with their words. I’m not naturally good at talking; I’m naturally good at fighting.” The two fighter’s personalities appear to prove Woods correct. If Clinton Woods has a blend in with the crowd way about him, Tarver is a stand in the middle of the crowd and scream “Look at me” type. The “Magic Man” also has a magic tongue when it comes to hyping his fights, and this press conference was no different. Tarver was bold in his predictions, and flashy in his presentation from the podium. Where Woods although very presentable, looked like he shopped at stores with names like “Every Day Man”, Tarver looked like his fashions came directly from Hollywood. Indeed they may have since Tarver is not long removed from his role in the film ‘Rocky Balboa’ from 2006. Tarver however, is not just flash without the boom and the bang. He will forever be remembered for his fights with Roy Jones Jr., including the most memorable second fight with Jones where he knocked him out in the second round, regaining his title belts. In his recent matches, he was defeated by Bernard Hopkins in 2005, but scored victories over Elvir Murioi and Danny Santiago in 2007. Tarver’s motivation for this fight is the self set goal of collecting as many belts as possible in 2008. This sets up the possibility of some of these participants colliding again in the future. Tarver feels that he has an advantage because of his motivation as well as his experience of being in such a well publicized fight. As he puts it, “I’ve been to the big dance.” This “dance” is also in Tarver’s backyard being that he resides in the Tampa Bay Area. Tarver has worked to bring events such as TNT to Tampa and it is obvious that his efforts are paying off. For Woods, it is only his second fight in the United States and his first broadcast on Showtime. Tarver pointed out the differences that also exist between fans in England verses the United States boxing aficionados and then issued a challenge to fans especially in Tampa. “The fans over there take it to another level! They are truly fanatical. I’m bringing a challenge to the fans here, to come out and support this event with all we got!” He then added, “We don’t want what happened in Las Vegas to happen here in Tampa.” He appeared to be referring back to the Mayweather verses Hatton fight were some of the Hatton supporters booed the National Anthem. As reserved as the English are perceived to be, events and their fans can be a step up in reference to energy when compared to their “across the pond” counterparts. An example of this was at the press conference in London a few days ahead of the one in Tampa to announce the fight. Although the one in Tampa had its usual entertaining moments, the video of the one in London has become a favorite on the internet. With the two combatants dueling verbally in the background, reporters broadcast their reports and cut to clips of the pair banging their fists on the table. There is even a clip of promoter Gary Shaw getting into a verbal exchange with one of the reporters. To our outwardly appearing relief, and our inwardly feeling of remorse, none of this happened at the Tampa press conference. Despite this, with such different worlds coming together on April 12th, we can expect that “Title Night in Tampa” will be a powder keg of excitement. The fuse has been lit; we await the explosion of entertainment!
