They now seem well-equipped to begin a period of growth and prosperity.

GAMMA NEWSWIRE:
WEEK 1, JULY 1996
Quote:
Raul Hughes - New GAMMA Heavyweight Champion



(left: Hughes, right: Foster)

In what could only be considered as the upset of the year, Raul Hughes (11-0) defeated James Foster (16-2) via Knock Out at 2:16 in the first round of their match to win the GAMMA Heavyweight Championship. Hughes, went into GAMMA: Foster vs. Hughes with an unblemished 10-0 record, and left with his eleventh win and the belt. Hughes has won all of his eleven bouts via knockout. Hughes was a huge underdog against the popular Foster, with MMA pundits pointing out to his "one-sided" offense. Hughes proved them wrong, however, when he successfully landed a crushing punch to Foster's jaw, ending the match abruptly and sending shockwaves throughout the MMA world. Can Hughes stay on top? Only time will tell.

Other news:

Julio Reguiero defeats Jack Humphreys, wins Welterweight Title...
Lightweight Champion, Sean Morrison, wants challenge...
Asanovic vs. LeToussier for the Title, sources say...
Amaro, De Vries, Halvorsen, Atteveld want shot at Matthew Dean...

Rivero is an absolute beast BTW. He crushed Asanovic in mine, and remains undefeated so far (I think he's up around 10-0 or 11-0). Tony McCall is underrated...he hangs tough and manages to scrape out wins. Another person who I've had great success with was Steve Mason. He's just tearing through people and I think he's like the #4 HW or something.

I had another thought...but it's gone

Rivero is indeed a beast. In my other game he went a clean 20-0 well into 2009. (of course, I fed him a lot of weak guys, but he was kick ass against the top dogs as well)

GAMMA: Oktay vs. McCall
Saturday, Week 4, 1996
California, USA
-------------------------


FIGHT RESULTS:

-------------------------
Light Heavyweight Match:
Christian Mountfield (5-2) vs. Jethro Munther (1-1)
Blurcat Prediction: Mountfield via TKO

Round One:
Good start from Mountfield, taking Munter down almost immediately! Munter scrambles though, and gets back to his feet without taking any damage at all. Mountfield will be disappointed with that. Munter comes in and throws two big right hands, but neither connects, and they put him off balance, allowing Mountfield to score with a nice right hook to the side of the head, crunching into the top of the ear. Munter felt that one for sure. He stalks Mountfield, trying to back him up against the ropes. It doesn't work though, Mountfield keeps out of the way. Munter tries a kick, but Mountfield catches the foot and uses it for a trip. Mountfield gets Munter down for the second time, and this time is right on top of him in guard position. Mountfield throws some punches, then tries to pass. Munter doesn't allow it, and tries to grab an armbar in response. Mountfield easily stops that, and throws some more punches. That becomes the pattern, as the fight falls into a predictable pattern; punches from Mountfield followed by a pass attempt, with Munter blocking the pass and throwing the occasional punch in response. The round ends like that, just as the referee was about to stand them back up. The round ends. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Mountfield.

Round Two: Mountfield starts the round by throwing some low kicks. Munter checks them, then comes in and clearly wants to trade punches. Mountfield doesn't seem too bothered by that, and they enter into the first exchange of punches of the round. Difficult to say who came out on top, neither of them did a great deal of damage, most of the shots hit the opponent's gloves. Mountfield cleverly head-fakes, allowing him the time and angle that he needed to catch Munter with a beauty of a right hook. Munter stumbles backward, but doesn't go down. Mountfield presses the advantage by following in with a kick, then a right hand. Munter clinches. They remain clinches for a while. Munter scores with a nice knee, it appeared to catch Mountfield in the gut. Mountfield uses a single leg trip and takes the fight to the ground. Mountfield gets to side control upon impact, and immediately goes for an armbar. Munter reacts quickly, but is in real danger. Mountfield has his left arm straightened out, fortunately Munter has managed to roll and get a good position that is stopping Mountfield from getting the leverage needed to apply an armlock. Mountfield tries to step over and fully apply it, but Munter breaks free and gets him to back off with a couple of up-kicks. Mountfield steps back and motions for him to stand up. They go back to circling in the center. Munter hits a nice right hand, but takes one back too. The time runs down; Mountfield will probably get that round on points, he hit the best punch of the round, and got the only takedown, plus was the one who was working toward a submission. End of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Mountfield.

Round Three: Right hand from Mountfield was thrown with power, but bounced off the gloves of Munter. Mountfield follows up by coming in close, but Munter is ready with a straight right hand that glances off the side of the head. Mountfield throws a ragged jab, missing by a mile as Munter simply ducks under and unloads a vicious hook from below. It catches Mountfield square on the jaw, and he goes down! Munter mounts and starts firing off punches, rapid-fire. The referee waits to see if Mountfield can recover, decides that he can't, and pulls Munter off. The match is over. Munter wins via 3rd round TKO with the official time being 1:50. (*)

Wow. I didn't see that coming. Mountfield dominated that match and was set to win, but he decided to go for a stand-up fight. Big mistake there. Consider this an upset. Blurcat predictions go 0-1.
-------------------------
Welterweight Match:
Simon Vine (7-3) vs. Nathan Chambers (5-0)
Blurcat Prediction: Chambers via TKO

Round One:
Very, very slow start to the round. Over a minute has gone before the first meaningful strike connects. It's Chambers who hits it, scoring with a shot to the chest. Vine fires back with a couple of jabs, both of which connect with the shoulder rather than the face where they were aimed. The two fighters come together in the center and exchange punches, neither getting the clear advantage. Vine suddenly shoots in and goes for a takedown, but Chambers manages to sprawl long enough to get them all the way back to the ropes, which keeps him upright. Vine tries to complete the takedown, but realises that the leverage isn't there and instead stands and clinches. Chambers hits a couple of shots to the back. Vine hits a stomp. Chambers lifts his leg to go for a knee, but that gives Vine the opportunity to lift him and slam him down to the ground. That was a hard slam! Vine is on top, almost sitting on top of a balled-up Chambers. He throws some hard downward punches, Chambers defends most of them, although one hits hard above the eye. Vine leaves his arm in for a second too long and Chambers reaches up and almost gets an armbar. Vine gets free though, although the effort puts him off-balance enough for him to stumble, giving Chambers the opportunity to scramble back up. There's a nasty mark above the eye where the earlier punch connected though. They go back to circling each other. There's not much time left. Chambers tries one last big attack, swinging for the fences with two bombs, but Vine avoids both, adding a nice shot to the stomach after the second dodge. The round ends there. End of the round. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Vine.

Round Two: Chambers starts brightly by throwing some looping punches. Defended well by Vine. They circle, throwing tentative jabs. Vine goes for a single leg and puts Chambers on the floor, but he is up very quickly, preventing Vine from getting on top. Chambers definitely seems to want to keep this standing. Vine hits a nice jab, avoids a counter left hook, then comes in low and takes down Chambers again. This time Chambers isn't able to get up, and has to pull guard. Times ticking away though, Vine will have to hurry to finish. He goes for an armbar, but Chambers defends. Vine tries to slip past to get side control, but Chambers just about manages to keep guard. A second attempt works though, and Vine has the side. Two big elbows land, and Chambers seems in trouble. Vine goes for the kimura, but can't quite get it. The time expires before he can try again, and the referee separates them. The second round is over. Blurcat.com gives that one to Vine by 10-9.

Round Three: Chambers steps back to avoid a straight left. Vine comes in to try it again, and gets caught with a lovely hook. Vine goes down hard, but isn't out, just stunned. Chambers quickly mounts him before he can shake it off, and unloads with punches. The referee is very quickly in there and pulls Chambers off, giving him the win. Replays show the referee was right to do so, Vine took three nasty looking shots in a row from the mount. The official time is 0:38. (**)

Vine took it to Chambers in the first round, bringing the fight down the the mat. Round Two was much of the same, and Round Three was great. Blurcat gets this one right. 1-1.
-------------------------
Middleweight Match:
Buddy Garner (8-0) vs. Greg Atteveld (15-10)
Blurcat Prediction: Garner via Submission

Round One:
Garner scores the first meaningful blow of the round, hitting a powerful overhand right that thumped past the gloves. Atteveld shakes it off though, and scores with a nice low kick to the outside of the thigh. He steps in to throw some strikes, but Garner moves to a new angle and scores with a series of jabs. Atteveld turns and swings a heavy right hand, but Garner goes underneath it and hits a wicked kick to the gut. That exchange really showed the difference between the two fighters; Garner looks light on his feet and very agile, Atteveld looks slow and sluggish by comparison. Atteveld will need to find a way to nullify Garner's footwork, perhaps by getting in close, as he has been picked apart for the first half of this round. Garner darts in again, and gets in a nice flurry. Atteveld manages to hit a crisp jab in return, but one of Garner's punches caught him above the eye, leaving a mark, so he came off the worse from that exchange. The round ends without any further big strikes happening, Garner controlling the round with his superior movement. End of the round. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Garner.

Round Two: Garner is quickest out, and comes at Atteveld with a series of jabs and straight punches. Atteveld covered up well, and I don't think anything got through. Atteveld hits a body shot, but it didn't connect solidly. They get in close, and it's Garner who takes it to the ground. Atteveld pulls guard. There's a lull, as Garner tries to pass, and Atteveld defends it. Punches get thrown every so often, but it's really a stalemate at the moment. Atteveld almost gets a guillotine, but it's blocked and almost leads to a kimura for Garner, but that too goes nowhere. The referee stands them up, but the time is almost over. The round ends. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Garner.

Round Three: Exchange of punches to start, nothing really hit though. They go into a clinch, and the pace disappears as both fighters try and get the advantage. Eventually the referee separates them. Jab from Garner, who then has to react quickly to avoid a right hook that was aimed right at the chin. Garner puts on a burst of energy and fires off a big sequence of punches, maybe twelve or thirteen in a row, although not many actually connected. Atteveld covered up well, and gets in a couple of shots of his own before moving out of range again. Garner is looking the fitter of the two at this stage in the round. Low kick from Atteveld, almost to the groin, although it didn't look intentional. They come together in a clinch again, and it returns to a stalemate. Not a great round by anyone's standard, but that flurry should mean that Garner will take the round on points. End of round 3. Blurcat.com scores 10-9 Garner. The official scores are: 30-27 from all three judges for Buddy Garner. (**)

No surprise here. Garner wanted this more, it seemed. Atteveld will be retiring after this match. Going the limit against a good submission fighter ain't a bad way to go out. Garner remains undefeated. Blurcat is 2-1.
-------------------------
Heavyweight Match:
Steve Mason (2-0) vs. Fatuma Roy (16-5)
Blurcat Prediction: Roy via Submission

Round One:
The round starts slowly, with both fighters circling, tentatively throwing out the occasional jab. Roy is the first to make a positive move, stepping in to throw a right hand, although he probably wishes that he hadn't, as Mason picks him off with a crisp jab to the cheek. Roy throws a wild punch as a counter, but Mason ducks and backs off out of range. They meet again in the center for an exchange of punches. Roy gets a clubbing blow to the side of the head in, but takes a hard shot to the stomach in return. The early pattern seems to be that Roy is looking for big punches, Mason is happy to avoid them and use quick counter punches instead. They clinch up, and Roy manages to back Mason up against the ropes. Roy takes a half step backward and throws a big right hand to the head, but Mason ducks under at the last second, scores with a pair of punches to the gut, then darts out of trouble before Roy can unload. Roy may need to think about changing tactics, Mason is looking far sharper in these striking battles, and is beginning to control the pace and tempo of the round. Roy fakes a right hand, then shoots out a low kick, catching Mason on the thigh. Mason presses forward for the first time, getting in close and using a couple of jabs to the body. Roy gets a nice left hook in, glancing off the gloves, and then clinches up. Time ticks away and the round ends just a few seconds after the referee separates them. The round is over. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Mason.

Round Two: Mason starts fast, firing off several crisp jabs that keep Roy on the back foot. A solid left hits gloves, but it's really just a set-up for Mason to step in and use an uppercut. Not sure how much of it caught Roy, but certainly enough to to make him grab a clinch to stop any further punishment. Great start to the round from Mason, it has been total domination so far. The clinch is broken, and the two fighters exchange some long range jabs that are easily avoided. Roy is looking a little lost so far, Mason is controlling this round by virtue of his crisp accurate punches and higher aggression levels. Mason throws out a few jabs, nothing too dangerous though, Roy easily avoided them. Mason leads with the left, then moves in and gets in a wicked right hand that grazes the cheek. Roy was fortunate there, if that had landed properly it would have been over. Roy comes back with a leg kick to set up a one-two combination, but the round is coming to a close and it's going to be too little too late. The one bright spot for Roy is that although Mason clearly won the round, he didn't actually turn that dominance into any sort of real damage. That's the end of the round. Blurcat.com gives that one to Mason by 10-9.

Round Three: Mason starts fast, unleashing a bomb of a right hand, but Roy avoids it without too much trouble. Mason isn't disheartened though, swinging two more huge punches, with Roy getting out the way each time, but being forced all over the place. Mason finally backs off a little, breathing hard. That was quite a frantic start. Roy opts to use that, and comes in to throw some jabs. Mason is backed up against the ropes, covering up. Roy clinches. They struggle, and the fight enters a lull. Mason hits a knee strike to the hip. Roy slips one leg behind Mason and uses that as leverage for a big trip. Mason landed hard, with Roy on top. They're in half guard. It's to Mason's advantage that they're right next to the ropes, that is blocking Roy from attacking the left hand side of the body. Mason is forced into action to defend a kimura attempt. Roy tries to step over to mount, but Mason keeps his legs in position and ends up almost rolled into a ball. Roy fires some stuff punches to the back, then one to the face. He reaches through and tries to secure an armbar, but has to be careful as he is in danger of getting picked off with a counter armbar too. Mason doesn't appear to be trying that though, instead trying to shift his weight so that he can get back up. Roy isn't allowing it though, and gets a couple more punches in before settling back into half guard. Mason ties him up in a snug clinch. The action halts, and time expires before Roy can get free. The round is over. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Roy. Steve Mason wins, with a score of 29-28 from two judges, 30-27 from the other. (**)

I'm disappointed that nobody got knocked out in this fight. So far, all the matches have gone to three rounds. Mason continues his winning ways. Blurcat goes 3-1.

-------------------------
Light Heavyweight Match:
John Rivero (7-0) vs. Elgar (10-4)
Blurcat Prediction: Rivero by Decision

Round One:
Rivero starts tentatively, and scores with a few sharp leg kicks. A straight left connects, and Elgar is forced backward to avoid an uppercut. Good start from Rivero. Elgar tries to come inside, but eats a kick to the thigh. They clinch briefly, but it goes nowhere. Looping right hand from Elgar, but it only caught Rivero on the shoulder. Another kick connects from Rivero, and that sets up a nice combination to the body. The accuracy of his kicks has been excellent so far, and is keeping Elgar from doing very much. Elgar narrowly misses a right cross. Right hand from Elgar, that one definitely registered, but I don't think it had much power behind it. The time ticks away without anything further of interest happening. End of round 1. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Rivero.

Round Two: Not much happening at first. Elgar is the first to make a move, coming in with a right hand that narrowly misses. Rivero gets in a jab that landed on the left cheek of Elgar, and leaves a mark. Quite a slow paced round so far. Elgar takes another jab and moves in to retaliate, but it was a set-up and he gets creamed with a high right kick to the side of the head! Elgar stumbles but doesn't go down, and has to cover up as Rivero comes in with a series of punches to try and finish the job. Elgar somehow manages to hold on long enough to get his senses back, and buys some time by clinching. Hard knee from Elgar from the clinch, and Rivero felt that, he looks a little tired from unloading that barrage. They break, and Elgar gets in a nice right hand. For a second it looked like Rivero was about to go for a takedown, but nothing came from it. The second round is over. Blurcat.com has it down as 10-9 Rivero.

Round Three:
Fast start by Rivero, who has thrown three crisp jabs in the first twenty seconds, although none of them got past the gloves. Elgar circles, drawing a lunge from Rivero, allowing him to score with a nice low kick to the front leg. Rivero ignores that and darts in for a takedown, but only ends up holding one leg, Elgar hopping on the other to remain vertical. Rivero tries to push forward to complete the takedown, but Elgar manages to pull them all the way back to the ropes before ultimately going down. That's a much better position to be in though, he has his corner right there, and can use the ropes to effectively cut off any form of attack to the left hand side of his body. Rivero has one leg trapped between Elgar's, and is struggling to get it free. He throws a couple of punches, none of them doing much damage, and then tries to work on one of the arms. It might be a kimura that he looking for. Elgar defends it well, without fully escaping it, Rivero can't really do a lot with it due to how much he is having to stretch to apply it, due to his leg being trapped. Elgar suddenly releases the leg and scrambles up, looking to take Rivero's back. Rivero was ready for it though, and blocks it by pinning a half-standing Elgar up against the ropes. It's a precarious position for both fighters. Elgar throws a couple of short-range punches. Rivero gets a leg in and trips Elgar, putting him back on the ground, albeit this time in full guard. It was a nice escape attempt from Elgar, at least he can take heart from the fact that it resulted in a better defensive position. Time is running out, it looks like this round will end with them in this position. The third round is over. Blurcat.com has it down as 10-9 Rivero. The judges scores are unanimous, and give a score of 30-27 to John Rivero. (**)

Blurcat calls this one right, as it goes to three and the limit. Rivero just toyed with Elgar... which is what I hoped. The road to the title continues for Rivero. Blurcat is now 4-1.
-------------------------
GAMMA Lightweight Title Match:
Sean Morrison(c) (12-3) vs. Mario de Souza (12-6)
Blurcat Prediction: Morrison via Decision

Round One:
de Souza works an angle and comes in from the side of Morrison, getting two good jabs in before a ragged left misses by quite a margin. Morrison hits a low kick to back de Souza against the ropes, then works the body with a series of short punches. de Souza fights out and the action returns to the center. de Souza hits a right hand above Morrison's right eye, but gets clinched up before he can do anything further. Morrison forces him back against the ropes. They struggle, with de Souza keeping the takedown from happening by pulling away from every trip attempt. Morrison pushes de Souza into the ropes, then sweeps the legs quickly. de Souza couldn't get out of the way that time, and goes down. He pulls guard. de Souza struggles to contain Morrison, who passes to half guard without too much trouble. A few hard shots get thrown, and de Souza does well to defend them, deflecting them off his gloves. Morrison is trying to get his leg free so that he can get into side control. de Souza throws a couple of punches from his back, but they do very little damage. Morrison half-stands, and throws a couple of big punches with a lot of force behind them. One is blocked, but the other hits home just below the left eye. de Souza tries to cover up, while Morrison manages to get his leg free and get into a mount. de Souza is in big trouble. He tries to roll his hips and shift Morrison's weight, but it's not working. Morrison fires off a couple of punches, then drops an absolute bomb of a right hand, landing flush on the chin! de Souza is out, just for a second, but the referee has already pulled Morrison off. Sharp-eyed refereeing there. This match is over by knock out. Morrison wins via knock out at 2:23 of the first round. (**)

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! Morrison retains! JACK HUMPHREYS VS. SEAN MORRISON... I can see it now! Blurcat is 5-1.
-------------------------
Heavyweight Match:
Lefter Oktay (6-0) vs. Tony McCall (20-4)
Blurcat Prediction: Oktay via Knock Out


Round One: The round begins, and it is Oktay who starts better, energetically bounding straight into action by throwing a three-punch combination and a scything leg kick. McCall defended all four blows well, but is forced to be on the backfoot right from the word go. Oktay works for an angle, coming in from the left hand side with a high right hand. McCall ducks under it and nestles a stiff jab in the solar plexus. It doesn't seem to slow Oktay down much though, as he swiftly turns and hits a crisp left to the side of the head, followed almost instantly by a mid-level kick that smacks above the hip of McCall. Interesting first minute of action, Oktay is looking particularly sharp. McCall tries to turn the momentum by advancing quickly and driving Oktay back against the ropes with a series of jabs and hooks, and they end up clinched. McCall tries a knee from that position, but it is blocked. Oktay scores with two sharp blows to the ribs, and then they break away from each other. A looping left from McCall, but it's wide of the mark. They square up to each other in the center. Oktay throws a head fake and comes in from low down to hit a rising shot that catches McCall on the side of the head. McCall got a shot in too though, although it hit the shoulder rather than the head. Time is running down; Oktay has probably done enough to win the round, but it has turned quite scrappy since the clinch against the ropes, both will probably be slightly unhappy with that. McCall tries a late surge, coming in hard and fast with a leading left, but Oktay defends it well and scores the only meaningful shot of the exchange with a crisp left hand. The first round is over. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Oktay

Round Two: Oktay throws a combination but gets smothered into a clinch. They back up against the ropes. McCall hits a wicked uppercut, taking Oktay completely by surprise, then starts wailing away with lefts and rights. Oktay can only cover up against the ferocious attack, but that doesn't stop a couple of big shots landing. More shots rain down, and Oktay is getting obliterated, he can't throw any counter punches as he can't move his hands down without getting hit again, and he can't get past McCall to safety either. The referee finally sees enough and covers Oktay up. The official time is 0:14. (***)

THE BUTCHER GOES DOWN!!!! MY OH MY. This sets him back quite a bit. McCall just destroyed him there. McCall's victory can't be called much of an upset, though... he's every bit a capable fighter, and proved it here. Blurcat goes 5-2.

Nice, I beat Blurcat going 6-1!

A pretty boring card though, you'll have to do more if you want to entertain your fans.

The undercard was a bit predictable, the Morrison match was nice but he wasn't facing real opposition and you had to expect he was going to win. The main event was great though.

Anxious to see Humphreys vs. Morrison, but the question is do you wait and make it a massive fight while risking that one of them is surprised, or do you make it right now and have a very solid main event without it being a huge match.

Great job though, the event was not perfect, but it was still exciting!

I wanted to work with the timeline of the game and Hughes vs. Foster was on June, so the exciting matches are going to be done sometime in the next months.

Hey Neon, I couldn't figure it out in the Demo, but is there a way you can slot fighters with one of the major training camps in the game, or do they just have to invite a fighter?

It is random. You can't convince a fighter to join a fight camp. I'm ambivalent about it. One on hand, it would be nice to develop fighters by putting them with the best, on the other, it isn't realistic to be able to do so. Afterall, it's a n MMA promoter sim as opposed to a fighter-management sim.

I've been extremely unimpressed with John Rivero so far. The guy has all the talent in the world, but for me he was knocked out by Alexei Chekhov (which isn't too bad) before following that up with uninspired dull decision wins over Bryan Van Den Hauwe and Ricky Heath.

As for your Humphreys vs. Morrison decision, I tinkered with the database to have fighters ideal weights be more realistic, which set up Julio Reguerio in the Lightweight division to start with.

Reguerio v. Morrison was a huge money match and with both of them being beasts I figured I could build it up a bit. While, Reguerio v. Silva goes as planned, but then Morrison ends up losing a UD (and getting dominated - 30-25 or 29-26) against de Souza.

While, I had to change my plans a bit from there as Reguerio v. Morrison was still the money fight. I booked Reguerio in the title match against de Souze while Morrison took on Silva (who had dropped to around 8th in the LW rankings) to build him back up before the Reguerio match.

Not only does Reguerio suffer his first loss in a UD to de Souza, but Silva goes on to KO Morrison.

Those two have dropped to 5 and 6 in my LW rankings behind de Souza, Charles Stiles (11-1-1), Silva and Luke Hilton (7-1).

The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.

GAMMA: Asanovic vs. LeToussier
Wednesday, Week 4, August 1996
Nevada, USA
-------------------------

FIGHT RESULTS:

-------------------------
Welterweight Match:
Luis Basora (7-0) vs. Allan Kendall (10-2)
Blurcat Prediction: Kendall via T.K.O.

Round One:
Slow start to the round. Not much happens before they wind up clinched together, struggling for supremacy. Kendall uses a trip to make a takedown, but doesn't go down himself, instead staying back. He pushes the raised legs away and dives in to get side control, but Basora scrambles and manages to get up, pushing Kendall down to the ground. Basora ends up on top, in guard. Basora stands into a half-crouching position, dragging Kendall's guard with him. Kendall reaches up, parries away a couple of strikes, and tries to grab an arm to apply an armbar to. Basora knocks the attempt away and nails a hard shot to the ribs before reaching over and trying to nail a downward punch to the chin. Kendall blocks it. Basora floats over and gets into side control. Kendall scrambles to try and get back up, but is too close to the ropes, which works against him. Basora lays in a couple of punches to the chest to soften Kendall up, then tries to move up and isolate one of the arms. Kendall makes sure to bring his body around to give him as much protection as possible. It works, as Basora can't get either arm isolated properly. Basora changes tactics and tries to get into crucifix position. Kendall fights it for as long as he possibly can, but eventually gets caught. The length of struggle is, in itself, a good defence though, as the round ends before Basora can do anything with the position he has achieved, which will frustrate him enormously. That's the end of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Basora.

Round Two: Tentative start, neither fighter is willing to commit yet. Basora fires off a jab, but it was easily blocked. Kendall fakes a kick, then comes in hard and fast with a takedown, sending Basora to the floor. The momentum causes Kendall to almost go completely over the top though, and Basora is able to flip him to the side and end up on top, in the guard position. Basora stands into a half-crouching position, dragging Kendall's guard with him. Kendall reaches up, parries away a couple of strikes, and tries to grab an arm to apply an armbar to. Basora knocks the attempt away and nails a hard shot to the ribs before reaching over and trying to nail a downward punch to the chin. Kendall blocks it. Basora floats over and gets into side control. Kendall scrambles to try and get back up, but is too close to the ropes, which works against him. Basora lays in a couple of punches to the chest to soften Kendall up, then tries to move up and isolate one of the arms. Kendall makes sure to bring his body around to give him as much protection as possible. It works, as Basora can't get either arm isolated properly. Basora changes tactics and tries to get into crucifix position. Kendall fights it for as long as he possibly can, but eventually gets caught. The length of struggle is, in itself, a good defence though, as the round ends before Basora can do anything with the position he has achieved, which will frustrate him enormously. End of round 2. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Basora.

Round Three: Good start from Basora, taking Kendall down almost immediately! Kendall scrambles though, and gets back to his feet without taking any damage at all. Basora will be disappointed with that. Kendall comes in and throws two big right hands, but neither connects, and they put him off balance, allowing Basora to score with a nice right hook to the side of the head, crunching into the top of the ear. Kendall felt that one for sure. He stalks Basora, trying to back him up against the ropes. It doesn't work though, Basora keeps out of the way. Kendall tries a kick, but Basora catches the foot and uses it for a trip. Basora gets Kendall down for the second time, and this time is right on top of him in guard position. Basora throws some punches, then tries to pass. Kendall doesn't allow it, and tries to grab an armbar in response. Basora easily stops that, and throws some more punches. That becomes the pattern, as the fight falls into a predictable pattern; punches from Basora followed by a pass attempt, with Kendall blocking the pass and throwing the occasional punch in response. The round ends like that, just as the referee was about to stand them back up. End of the round. Blurcat.com scores 10-9 Basora. The official scores are: 30-27 (twice), 29-28 for Luis Basora. (**)

Basora comes out with his spotless record intact. He managed to avoid any knockout blows, and kept Kendall on the ground. Blurcat is 0-1.
-------------------------
Welterweight Match:

Joe Hinchcliffe (12-4) vs. Noach Van Der Capellen (10-3)
Blurcat Prediction: Van Der Capellen via Decision

Round One:
The two fighters circle. Van Der Capellen flicks out a couple of jabs, then an unconventinal looping right hand. Hinchcliffe easily side-steps it, but trips and falls to the ground! He is up quickly, before Van Der Capellen could get in. Replays confirm that it was purely a stumble, the punch was well wide of the mark. Hinchcliffe moves in, ducks under a big right hand, and gets two crisp jabs in before getting smothered into a clinch. One of those jabs landed hard, Van Der Capellen is a little rattled. They struggle in the clinch, both throwing small punches to the back and ribs. The referee separates them. Van Der Capellen forces Hinchcliffe back up against the ropes, and starts throwing jabs. He looks to be keeping Hinchcliffe in position, waiting to unload a big punch. Van Der Capellen does, lunging in with a huge right cross, but Hinchcliffe saw it coming and goes underneath it, scoring with a right hand to the gut on the way past. Van Der Capellen turns and tries to follow up immediately, but gets tagged with a wicked left hook that drops him to one knee. Van Der Capellen is up quickly, causing Hinchcliffe, who was about to dive in, to back off. Replays show that the punch connected, but Van Der Capellen was already going downward to duck the punch, so it wasn't as powerful as first thought. Van Der Capellen throws a high kick, but it doesn't do anything but cause Hinchcliffe to step back. The time expires without anything further of note happening. End of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Hinchcliffe.

Round Two: Van Der Capellen starts fast, coming out almost immediately with a three punch combination. None of them get through, and Hinchcliffe manages to squeeze a jab of his own through and score just above the left cheek. They exchange a flurry of blows right in the center, it's difficult to see who got the best of it, and both of them retreat a few steps to recover. Good start to the round, early indications are that this is going to be all about the striking, neither fighter has even hinted at going for a takedown. Hinchcliffe uses a low kick to set up a nice right hand, and Van Der Capellen is forced back against the ropes. Hinchcliffe picks his shots and gets a big punch to the body in. Van Der Capellen uses a couple of looping punches to make Hinchcliffe keep back, but it doesn't last for long, as Hinchcliffe bursts forward and hits two big right hands, taking a counter punch to the body though, and they wind up in a clinch. They exchange weak-looking blows from that position, before the referee grows tired of the inactivity and breaks them apart. Van Der Capellen scores with a low kick. Other than a few half-hearted jabs, there's been a definite lull over the past minute. Hinchcliffe unwinds a right hook that narrowly misses. That will be the last action of the round though. End of round 2. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Hinchcliffe.

Round Three: Hinchcliffe starts with a high kick, but Van Der Capellen was well out of range. Hinchcliffe looks for an opening. Hinchcliffe steps in and exchanges strikes with Van Der Capellen, neither fighter gets a particular advantage from it. Van Der Capellen parries away a nice right hand and gets in a crisp counter punch that catches Hinchcliffe on the shoulder. The round has been a little flat so far, neither of them is really forcing the issue. They enter into a clinch, which doesn't help matters, and that seems to last for an eternity before the referee separates them and tells them to get on with it. Hinchcliffe finally shows some fire, putting together a combination of two jabs, a cross, and an uppercut. Van Der Capellen did well to defend it, bobbing and weaving out of the way and using his gloves to parry away anything that was too close. He uses a low kick to the thigh as a response, then steps in and unloads with two fine punches, although Hinchcliffe blocked them. Hinchcliffe scores the best punch of the round so far, coming in fast, ducking under a dangerous right hand, and catching Van Der Capellen square in the face with a lunging overhand right. Van Der Capellen backs off and covers up, clearly having felt that one, and unfortunately Hinchcliffe's attempts to follow up and thwarted as he gets tied up in a clinch near the ropes. The time expires, with Hinchcliffe probably having stolen that round thanks to that one big punch. The round ends. Blurcat.com gives that one to Hinchcliffe by 10-9. Joe Hinchcliffe wins the match, getting a score of 30-27 from all three judges. (**)

I expected someone to get knocked out in this match between two stand-up fighters. I guess they were too cautious. Blurcat calls it wrong, though. 0-2 for the cat.
-------------------------
Lightweight Match:

Giovani Silva (20-9) vs. Luke Hilton (4-1)
Blurcat Prediction: Hilton via T.K.O.

Round One:
Hilton starts fast, coming out almost immediately with a three punch combination. None of them get through, and Silva manages to squeeze a jab of his own through and score just above the left cheek. They exchange a flurry of blows right in the center, it's difficult to see who got the best of it, and both of them retreat a few steps to recover. Good start to the round, early indications are that this is going to be all about the striking, neither fighter has even hinted at going for a takedown. Silva uses a low kick to set up a nice right hand, and Hilton is forced back against the ropes. Silva picks his shots and gets a big punch to the body in. Hilton uses a couple of looping punches to make Silva keep back, but it doesn't last for long, as Silva bursts forward and hits two big right hands, taking a counter punch to the body though, and they wind up in a clinch. They exchange weak-looking blows from that position, before the referee grows tired of the inactivity and breaks them apart. Hilton scores with a low kick. Hilton looks to be working an angle. Silva unwinds a right hook that narrowly misses. That will be the last action of the round though. End of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Silva.

Round Two: Right hand from Silva was thrown with power, but bounced off the gloves of Hilton. Silva follows up by coming in close, but Hilton is ready with a straight right hand that glances off the side of the head. Silva gets caught with a solid right hand out of nowhere, and is rocked. Hilton follows up with another one, and Silva looks in trouble all of a sudden. He is backed up against the ropes and Hilton is unloading. The punches are raining down, Silva is covering up. The referee has seen enough and stops the fight, clearly feeling that Silva was unable to defend himself intelligently. Hilton wins. The official time is 1:54. (**)

Nice. Hilton wins! The youngster has potential to be great. Blurcat goes 1-2.
-------------------------
LightHeavyweight Match:

JJ Reid (12-0) vs. Brian Van Den Hauwe (12-7)
Blurcat Prediction: Reid via Submission

Round One:
Slow start to the round. Not much happens before they wind up clinched together, struggling for supremacy. Van Den Hauwe uses a trip to make a takedown, but doesn't go down himself, instead staying back. He pushes the raised legs away and dives in to get side control, but Reid scrambles and manages to get up, pushing Van Den Hauwe down to the ground. Reid ends up on top, in guard. Reid doggedly tries to pass guard, but Van Den Hauwe keeps him at bay. The referee tells them that he wants to see more in the way of action or he'll stand them up. Not much of an incentive for Van Den Hauwe to do anything, but it does inspire Reid to throw a couple of hard punches, albeit ones that are easily parried by the gloves of Van Den Hauwe. Reid manages to work past Van Den Hauwe's right leg, but gets caught in half guard before he can get the mount that he was looking for. The fight once again slows right down, with Van Den Hauwe's tenacious defence frustrating Reid. Van Den Hauwe sucks Reid into a clinch, and even tries a cheeky guillotine. Reid pushes him away though, and nails a beauty of a right hand to the cheek in response. I don't think Van Den Hauwe will be trying that move again for a while. Reid grabs an arm and tries to twist it backward to create some torque. Van Den Hauwe uses his free arm to grab his own wrist, preventing that from happening. The time expires without anything further of note happening. End of the round. Blurcat.com has it down as 10-9 Reid.

Round Two: Slow start to the round, they're both circling, looking for an opening. Van Den Hauwe tries a looping punch from way back, but Reid side steps with ease. Jab from Reid, gets one back in response. Van Den Hauwe comes in, looking for the right hand lead, but Reid shoots in and uses a double-leg takedown. He winds up in a closed guard. Reid tries to grab an arm to work a submission, but Van Den Hauwe is defending it well by using short, sharp strikes to keep him back. Reid tries to pass the guard, but has no luck. A punch from Reid connects, but there was no real power behind it. Reid fakes Van Den Hauwe out cleverly, and slips to a half mount. Van Den Hauwe manages to hit a firm elbow, then is forced to defend the full mount attempt. Reid switches tactics and tries to work a kimura on the other arm, but Van Den Hauwe blocks it, squirms his leg free, and secures the guard again. Reid looks frustrated at losing the half mount after having worked so hard to get it in the first place. Van Den Hauwe is liable to lose the round on points, but he has done a fine job of defending the submissions attempts so far. Reid tries to secure a leglock, but the guard is tight and Van Den Hauwe is safe. The second round is over. Blurcat.com has it down as 10-9 Reid.

Round Three: Slow start, both fighters are throwing tentative punches without threatening anything more powerful. Reid puts together the first exciting moment, stringing together four punches in quick succession, but Van Den Hauwe defended well. Straight right from Van Den Hauwe in response, but it caught nothing but gloves. They start circling. The referee tells them to fight, the lack of action so far is worrying. They get in close and exchange body shots, Reid probably getting the slightly better punches in, and then fall into a clinch. That goes nowhere, and the referee separates them. Van Den Hauwe gets a nice kick in just before the time expires, but it's unlikely that is going to stop the judges giving that round to Reid. End of round 3. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Reid. The three judges all give the match as 30-27 to JJ Reid. (**)

Reid maintains his unbeated record, and gets his first win as a Strike Force member. Blurcat is 2-2.
-------------------------
Heavyweight Match:

Shane Gilchrist (11-2) vs. Milton Harvey (9-8)
Blurcat Prediction: Gilchrist via Decision

Round One:
Harvey starts strongly, hitting two stiff jabs to the gloves, stinging the hands of Gilchrist. The third strike is a meaty left hook that narrowly misses. If that had hit, Gilchrist may well have been decapitated. Despite leaning backwards, Gilchrist throws a mighty kick that explodes across the chest, Harvey staggers back. That was an enormously powerful blow, and Harvey didn't see it coming at all. They circle for a moment, sizing each other up. Gilchrist throws a flurry of jabs, but Harvey blocks them easily. A right hand from Harvey lands below the eye, and a straight left glances off the shoulder. Another exchange doesn't see either fighter get an advantage. Harvey throws a heavy left, but Gilchrist goes underneath it. Another hard kick from Gilchrist, this time smashing into the left thigh. Harvey almost get knocked down. He throws a left hook in retaliation which misses by a mile, and gives Gilchrist the chance to hit another big kick, this time to the ribs. The round has been pretty even, with the exception of those kicks by Gilchrist which have really made a big difference. As the round comes to an end, it looks like those will make sure that Gilchrist wins the round on points. The round ends. Blurcat.com scores 10-9 Gilchrist.

Round Two:
Harvey comes out fast, and looks like he is aiming for a quick takedown, but Gilchrist stops that plan with some looping punches. Solid right hand from Gilchrist connects, and that's the best moment of the opening minute of the round. Harvey is mainly defending against punches, it looks like he is trying to work an angle to try for a takedown. Gilchrist seems to have noticed, as he is purposely positioning against that. Straight left from Gilchrist, then a low kick, then a wicked body shot. Harvey felt that, and backs off. Harvey tries to get in for a clinch, perhaps looking for a takedown from that position, but Gilchrist gets him to back off with some jabs. Gilchrist has really been able to stamp his gameplan on this round, Harvey has been blocked at every turn. End of the round. Blurcat.com gives that one to Gilchrist by 10-9.

Round Three: Gilchrist doesn't exactly disguise his intentions for this round, going right to the center and motioning for Harvey to come and trade blows. Harvey wisely keeps back for the time being, content to throw long-range jabs. Gilchrist isn't quite as content though, as he begins to stalk Harvey. They meet near the ropes. Harvey hits a nice jab, then goes to clinch. Gilchrist stops that with a powerful right hand to the body, then a fizzing left hook that glances off the side of the head. An attempt at a knock out right hand finds nothing but gloves. It is clear that Gilchrist believes that he has the power to get a knock out here, his game plan appears to be to look for the one punch finish. Harvey is trying to keep moving, to not let Gilchrist get set to throw a bomb. Gilchrist is controlling this round by virtue of the knock out threat, as Harvey is being forced to fight somewhat defensively. Gilchrist throws another big punch, narrowly missing, but does score with a follow up jab, landing just above the right eye. Harvey returns fire with a pair of jabs, both finding gloves. Time begins to tick away. It hasn't been the most exciting round, but Gilchrist has controlled it and managed to land the better shots. The round is over. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Gilchrist. The official scores are in; two judges give 30-27, the other 29-28, all for Shane Gilchrist. (**)

Man. I wanted Gilchrist to knock the shit out of Harvey. Oh Well. I'll take the win. Blurcat is 3-2.
-------------------------
Heavyweight Match:

Thomas Smith (6-1) vs. Tim Boyer (6-3-2)
Blurcat Prediction: Boyer via T.K.O.

Round One:
An exchange of jabs doesn't go anywhere. Boyer fakes a kick, then darts in to score with a straight left before backing out fast to avoid a left-right combination from Smith. They clinch, and Smith winds up backed against the ropes. A couple of minor blows get exchanged, but it's turned into a bit of a stalemate. Boyer tries to push Smith back, but can't. The referee waits a while, then separates them and gets them to resume. Smith pushes Boyer up against the ropes in a clinch. Smith throws a knee, then a couple of short punches to the side of the head. Boyer pushes him away and steps in to score with an uppercut. Smith took it flush on the chin and is rocked! Another right hand drops Smith against the ropes, and Boyer follows up by unloading with a barrage of punches. The referee gets in and pulls Boyer away, he wins the match by TKO. The official time of the TKO is 4:21 of round 1. (***)

Boyer destroys Smith! Being 6'7" and a great stand-up fighter kicks ass. It could have gone either way though, Smith is a talented guy. Blurcat goes 4-2.
-------------------------
GAMMA Middleweight Title:Matthew Dean(c) (10-2) vs. Fernando Amaro (15-3)
Blurcat Prediction: Amaro via T.K.O.

Round One:
Two jabs from the left hand of Dean set up a hard waist-high kick, but Amaro steps back to avoid it. Nice attempt though. Dean moves in closer, bobbing and weaving, and looks to score with a looping right hand, but Amaro uses the gloves to parry it away, then counter-strikes with a crisp jab and a kick to the knee. Good opening to the round, both fighters are looking lively. Dean finds himself backed up against the ropes briefly, and has to scramble to safety to avoid a flurry of strikes. Amaro is working for position, and is currently looking the more composed of the two. Dean shoots in and tries to take Amaro down, but a good sprawl prevents that from happening. Dean has a leg though, and is still trying for it. Amaro gets backed up all the way to the ropes, before a trip to his standing leg sends him to the ground. Dean goes for side control, but Amaro rolled his hips brilliantly and took him over, although Dean pulled guard quickly. Amaro stands slightly, and throws a couple of downward punches, testing Dean's guard. He wants to try and move out of this into half guard, but Dean is keeping him at bay. Amaro pushes a leg aside, narrowly avoiding an up-kick, and manages to secure side control. Well worked. Amaro gets himself into a good position, a crucifix, pinning both of Dean's arms down. Amaro rears back...and plants a monster of an elbow right onto the chin! Dean couldn't do anything about it, and got absolutely creamed! The referee sees him go limp briefly as he loses consciousness, and pulls Amaro off, it's going to be a K.O. victory. Official time of the knock out is 2:21 of the first. Fernando Amaro is the new GAMMA Middleweight champion. (**)

Ouch! I hope Dean isn't injured. That was brutal. Amaro is the new champ, and will most likely be defending the title a couple of months from now against the winner of the next match! Blurcat is 5-2.
-------------------------
Middleweight Match:

Martin De Vries (13-4) vs. Patrick Thomas (6-1)
Blurcat Prediction: Thomas via Knock Out

Round One:
Thomas is forced onto the backfoot almost immediately, having to retreat to avoid a series of sharp jabs. He ends up with his back to the ropes, with De Vries advancing. A sharp right misses, and Thomas takes the opportunity to pull De Vries in to a tight clinch against the ropes. De Vries tries to break free, but cannot. It looks like we know the strategies for this round already; De Vries wants to stand and bang, Thomas wants to keep things at close quarters. De Vries tries for an elbow, but only succeeds in getting turned around so that he is now the one against the ropes. Trip from Thomas, and we're down to the ground. Thomas has side control, but De Vries has landed with his left hand side against the ropes, so that side of the body is basically safe for now. Thomas will have to try to work the right-hand side, and starts by ramming a knee into the ribs. De Vries tries to squirm into a better position, but Thomas puts a stop to that with a stiff elbow to the stomach. Thomas tries to work a kimura on the right arm, but De Vries defends it. De Vries manages to bring a knee up and catch Thomas in the side, something of a cheeky move given his position. Thomas responds with five or six rapid-fire right hands to the face, but De Vries covers up and doesn't take any serious damage at all. Time is ticking away though, and so far Thomas may be easily winning the round, but he is not taking full advantage of this great position. Thomas tries to float over into a mount, but De Vries uses the ropes to push away and manages to unbalance Thomas enough to get to a kneeling position, then standing, albeit back into a clinch. A knee from Thomas is the last action of the round. End of the round. Blurcat.com gives that one to Thomas by 10-9.

Round Two: Thomas starts strongly, immediately rushing in for a takedown. De Vries got taken by surprise a little, but wrestles his way free of the grapple and pulls to safety. De Vries doesn't hang around for a second attempt, he uses a looping left to set himself up to come in close and score with a series of strikes, two or three nice body shots included. Thomas covers up, throwing the occasional jab as a counter. De Vries goes for a vicious uppercut, but gets pulled into a clinch. Thomas goes for a takedown via a trip, but De Vries defends it. Another trip attempt, another failure. Thomas pushes De Vries up against the ropes and tries to wrestle him to the ground, but De Vries keeps his balance and sprawls to stop it. De Vries gets in a hard right hand to the side of the face, taking advantage of the fact that Thomas was leaning in too far. De Vries reverses so that Thomas is against the ropes. They remain clinched, with nothing more than minor strikes being thrown, for a long time. The referee finally breaks them apart and gets them back to the center. De Vries throws a kick, waist-high, but Thomas avoids it. That could have been used for a takedown attempt if Thomas had been quicker and caught it. De Vries hits two or three punches in a row, stinging the gloves of Thomas. The round draws to a close. It'll be interesting to see where the judges go with this, as De Vries clearly got the better strikes in throughout the round, but Thomas did probably show more aggression by virtue of his almost constant attempts to get the takedown. End of the round. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for De Vries.

Round Three: De Vries throws a couple of scorching jabs; neither hit, but it forces Thomas to back pedal all the way back to the ropes. De Vries follows in and throws a stinging kick to the ribs. Thomas tries to catch it, but couldn't. Thomas throws a right hand to try and catch De Vries coming in, but it's wide of the mark. De Vries throws a head kick, and it's a beauty, landing flush to the cheek. It was delivered with enormous power, and Thomas drops to the floor immediately, he is out cold. The referee stops De Vries from following up, it's all over. The official time of the knock out is 1:27 of round 3. (***)

Another KO! De Vries vs. Amaro is on the chalk board, as long as nothing awry happens. Blurcat is 5-3.
-------------------------
GAMMA LightHeavyweight Title:
Zvonimir Asanovic(c) vs. Anthony LeToussier
Blurcat Prediction: Asanovic via Knock Out

Round One:
LeToussier leads with the right hand to set up a low kick, Asanovic deals with it well. They clinch, but only for a few seconds before it gets broken. Both throw stiff jabs at the same time, neither connects properly. Back to the clinch. It has been a disjointed start to the round, the flow hasn't quite developed properly. Asanovic uses a knee to the ribs before backing LeToussier up against the ropes. Right hand from LeToussier connects though, that was well timed. Asanovic breaks the clinch and backs off. That was sloppy on his part, LeToussier was basically gifted a free shot. Three quick jabs from Asanovic sting the gloves, then a crashing hook to the body finds its mark. Good recovery. LeToussier fires off a low kick again, but it's well wide. LeToussier throws a couple of scorching jabs; neither hit, but it forces Asanovic to back pedal all the way back to the ropes. LeToussier follows in and throws a stinging kick to the ribs. Asanovic tries to catch it, but couldn't. Asanovic throws a right hand to try and catch LeToussier coming in, but it's wide of the mark. LeToussier throws a head kick, and it's a beauty, landing flush to the cheek. It was delivered with enormous power, and Asanovic drops to the floor immediately, he is out cold. The referee stops LeToussier from following up, it's all over. Official time of the knock out is 4:49 of the first round. Anthony LeToussier is the new GAMMA Light Heavyweight champion. (****)

LETOUSSIER WINS!!! NEW LHW CHAMP!!! NEW LHW CHAMP!!! Asanovic was KTFO with only 11 seconds left in the round! Blurcat is a measley 5-4 tonight.

GAMMA: Hughes vs. Stanley
Friday
, Week 4, September 1996
New Jersey, USA

-------------------------
FIGHT CARD:
-------------------------
Middleweight:
Thorbjorn Redkall (3-1-1) vs. Alex Cole (5-3)
Blurcat Prediction: Redkall via Decision

Round One:
Cole starts fast, coming out almost immediately with a three punch combination. None of them get through, and Rekdal manages to squeeze a jab of his own through and score just above the left cheek. They exchange a flurry of blows right in the center, it's difficult to see who got the best of it, and both of them retreat a few steps to recover. Good start to the round, early indications are that this is going to be all about the striking, neither fighter has even hinted at going for a takedown. Rekdal uses a low kick to set up a nice right hand, and Cole is forced back against the ropes. Rekdal picks his shots and gets a big punch to the body in. Cole uses a couple of looping punches to make Rekdal keep back, but it doesn't last for long, as Rekdal bursts forward and hits two big right hands, taking a counter punch to the body though, and they wind up in a clinch. They exchange weak-looking blows from that position, before the referee grows tired of the inactivity and breaks them apart. Cole scores with a low kick. A looping left from Cole, but it's wide of the mark. Rekdal unwinds a right hook that narrowly misses. That will be the last action of the round though. End of round 1. Blurcat.com scores 10-9 Rekdal.

Round Two: They circle to start, both throwing a few tentative jabs. An uppercut misses its mark from Cole, providing the first moment of real action. Rekdal hits a nice combination of body shots to set up a big right hook, but Cole side-stepped to safety. A few punches get thrown, but there's a lack of real action to talk about. Rekdal is being slightly the more aggressive, but neither fighter is really going for it. They come together again and exchange punches, but no big shots get through, and they end up clinched for a while. The referee separates them, but the time is ticking away and this round looks like it's going to the judges. The round ends. Blurcat.com gives that one to Rekdal by 10-9.

Round Three: Dull first sixty seconds to the round, as neither fighter looks willing to commit much to attack. They're both looking for angles to come in from, but they're constantly countering each other. A crisp jab from Rekdal that almost found its way through the guard is the sole highlight as we reach the minute mark. They tangle near the ropes, and the referee has to come in and pull them apart. Cole ducks out of the way of a punch, then back steps quickly, just in time to avoid the uppercut that was coming. Better from Rekdal, although no damage has actually been done yet. Cole moves in close and hits a left hook to the body. Rekdal steps back, and suddenly fires off a roundhouse kick. Cole didn't see it coming, and it lands right behind his ear. Cole is down, knocked out cold, and the referee is quick to step in and stop Rekdal from inflicting any more damage. Official time of the knock out is 2:23 of the third round. (**)

Redkall with a successful debut with a win via KO. He introduces himself to GAMMA in a big way. Blurcat 1-0

Blurcat Prediction: Boc via Decision

Round One: Slow start to this round, Boc is being tentative and Stevens looks like he is waiting for an angle to appear. The first exchange of strikes doesn't really go anywhere. A second set falls in Boc's favour, as he gets a nice jab in, hitting right above the nose, and a solid shot to the body. Stevens goes in for a takedown but only manages to secure one leg. Boc hammers down two shots to the back, but can't really do a lot else. Stevens tries to push him over onto his back, but Boc manages to pull free and back off. Stevens throws a high left handed jab then goes in for another takedown. Good sprawl from Boc, and he backs off. Stevens doesn't get a chance to go for a third, because Boc takes the fight to him with a barrage of lefts and rights, forcing him back against the ropes. Boc clinches up, only after hitting a hard shot to the stomach though. The clinch seems to go on forever, with Stevens unable to get a good enough position to try a takedown, and Boc tied up too much to really throw any decent strikes. Eventually the time runs out and they head back to their corners. End of round 1. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Boc.

Round Two: Boc forces Stevens back against the ropes and comes in close to try and unload. Stevens pushes him away with a shove, palm across the face, and Boc loses his balance and is dumped onto the ground. Stevens leaps into action to follow up. Stevens is firing off punches while kneeling across Boc's upper body in a half-mount, and there's not a lot Boc can do about it. He needs to get out of there, or at least pull guard, but can do neither as he can't get his hips free. Stevens rains down the punches even faster, and Boc is just getting pounded into oblivion; even though he managed to block three quarters of the shots coming in, that's still five or six good shots that have gotten through. Those five or six shots are enough for the referee at any rate, as he calls an end to the match, obviously feeling that Boc was getting overwhelmed by that barrage. The official time is 0:41. (**)
Stevens remains undefeated, and Boc loses in his debut. Two KOs for tonight. Blurcat 1-1
-------------------------
Lightweight:
Duane Weatherly (10-7) vs. Callum Henson (4-0)
Blurcat Prediction: Henson via Submission

Round One: They circle to start, both throwing a few tentative jabs. An uppercut misses its mark from Weatherly, providing the first moment of real action. Henson hits a nice combination of body shots to set up a big right hook, but Weatherly side-stepped to safety. A few punches get thrown, but there's a lack of real action to talk about. Henson is being slightly the more aggressive, but neither fighter is really going for it. They come together again and exchange punches, but no big shots get through, and they end up clinched for a while. The referee separates them, but the time is ticking away and this round looks like it's going to the judges. That's the end of the round. Blurcat.com gives that one to Henson by 10-9.

Round Two: Bright start from Henson, he bounds over and starts unloading with a flurry of jabs and straight rights, bobbing and weaving the entire time to avoid Weatherly's counter punches. Weatherly tries to score with a lunging overhand right, but Henson side-steps it and catches him with a crunching punch to the jaw. Weatherly backs off quickly, dazed, it's a surprise that he didn't go down from that. Henson follows up, hoping to capitalise on the situation, and bombards Weatherly with punches. Weatherly covers up at first, then grabs Henson and uses a clinch to prevent the attack from getting worse. They get stuck like that for a while, which works in Weatherly's favour as it gives him plenty of time to recover properly. They are finally parted. Weatherly goes looking for revenge, firing off several enormous punches, trying to take Henson's head off, but Henson is far too quick at the moment, and almost dances his way out of the way of each strike, tagging Weatherly with flicked jabs as counters. Henson's movement is noticeably better than Weatherly, who is really struggling to generate any sort of meaningful attack simply because he is struggling to hit the constantly moving target that is Henson. They exchange strikes in the center, and for the first time Weatherly gets a few blows in, as Henson looks to be tiring a little. It won't be enough to get Weatherly the round though, Henson has clearly won this on points and there's only a few seconds left. End of round 2. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Henson.

Round Three: Slow start to the round. We're nearly a minute in before Weatherly throws the first meaningful punch, trying to squeeze a fizzing jab through to Henson's jaw, but it is parried. Henson steps in, but has to quickly side-step to avoid a straight right. Weatherly moves in to throw some body punches but gets clipped with a big right hand. It was partially blocked, it would have been a potential knock out if that had hit home on the chin, Henson put a lot of weight behind it. Weatherly hits a nice jab, then clinches. Henson hits a knee, takes a punch to the ribs, then breaks free. Weatherly hits a low kick to the leg. Henson bursts forward and scores with a big right hand to the body, then a left hook. Weatherly goes down! Good shot from Henson! He tries to follow up and pound on Weatherly, but Weatherly is up really quickly and covers up to block the two jabs that come in. Henson, sensing that Weatherly is rattled, starts coming forward with more urgency. Weatherly ends up backed up against the ropes. Henson gets within range, fakes a left, then lunges in with a huge right hand. It is partially parried by Weatherly, who wisely clinches up tightly to get some time to recover. The power that Henson has in his hands is really posing Weatherly some problems. The clinch drags on, with Henson unable to break free, and the round ends like that. End of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Henson. The judges scores are unanimous, and give a score of 30-27 to Callum Henson. (*)

Henson dominated Weatherly completely. 3 rounds and a unanimous win. Blurcat 2-1.
-------------------------
Lightweight:
Charles Stiles (8-1-1) vs. Kenny Magilton III (4-1)
Blurcat Prediction: Stiles via Decision

Round One:
Magilton misses a right hand and gives Stiles an angle, allowing him to come in from the side. He tries to take Magilton over with a type of suplex, which is partially blocked. Stiles tries a second time, this time completing the move by slamming Magilton down onto the mat stomach-first. Stiles briefly has his back, but Magilton scrambles and manages to turn and get into guard. Stiles is looking dangerous. He fires off a couple of punches, and one gets through. A third is attempted, but that gives Magilton the opportunity he needed, and Stiles gets swept, ending up underneath in side control. Magilton fires off three punches of his own, two connecting solidly above the eye. Magilton moves up into a dominant position, totally controlling the head and left arm of Stiles, and looking for a kimura. Stiles is trying to stop it, but he is in a really poor position and cannot get any sort of leverage. Magilton sinks it in, and Stiles has to tap out. Magilton wins via 1st round kimura submission with the official time being 0:48. (*)

WOW, that was quick. Stiles started off strong, but Magilton was able to take control in the ground. Blurcat 2-2.
-------------------------
Welterweight:
Will Kane (7-0) vs. Geoff Cahill (21-13)
Blurcat Prediction: Kane via Decision

Round One:
Kane leads with the right hand to set up a low kick, Cahill deals with it well. They clinch, but only for a few seconds before it gets broken. Both throw stiff jabs at the same time, neither connects properly. Back to the clinch. It has been a disjointed start to the round, the flow hasn't quite developed properly. Cahill uses a knee to the ribs before backing Kane up against the ropes. Right hand from Kane connects though, that was well timed. Cahill breaks the clinch and backs off. That was sloppy on his part, Kane was basically gifted a free shot. Three quick jabs from Cahill sting the gloves, then a crashing hook to the body finds its mark. Good recovery. Kane fires off a low kick again, but it's well wide. Kane makes Cahill back up against the ropes by throwing some looping punches. He comes in closer and hits a right hook to the body, getting a jab to the cheek in return. Kane throws another two punches, both to the body, then steps back to avoid an uppercut. Cahill lets fly with a scorching punch though, and it catches Kane by surprise, putting him down! Cahill follows up and starts raining down right hands. Kane covers up as best he can, but it's not enough as the referee pulls Cahill off, the match is over. The official time of the TKO is 4:28 of round 1. (**)

The very first of the BCF Boys go down to a GAMMA veteran! That puts an end to Kane's streak, and puts Cahill back on the map! Blurcat 2-3
-------------------------
Middleweight
Andrew Rush (12-0) vs. Neil Napier (6-0-1)
Blurcat Prediction: Rush via Knock Out

Round One:
A fizzing right hand from Rush opens the round; it didn't find its intended target of Napier's chin, but it did land hard on the left shoulder instead. Napier fights back with a jab, but takes a hard shot to the body after leaning in too far. Rush pins him to the ropes with a quick burst, and unloads with lefts and rights. Napier looks for a moment like he may be about to get overwhelmed, especially after a right hand appears to hit flush on the chin, but he recovers well and works his way back to the center. Rush is looking the more confident of the two by far. He smells blood, and comes in looking for a big right hand, only to walk right into a takedown. Napier had to time that perfectly, and did. Rush doesn't pull guard, instead scrambling, ending up onto his knees, with Napier taking his back! Napier tries to go for a choke, but Rush bucks and twists, scrambling back to his feet and backing off. A big right hand and a high kick prevent Napier from following too closely. After that frenetic minute of action, things die down, with the fighters circling. Rush scores with two leg kicks, Napier hits a tasty right hand to the body, but otherwise nothing much happens for the next couple of exchanges. Indeed, the clock runs down and the round ends without further noteworthy events. The first round is over. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Rush.

Round Two: Exchange of punches to start, nothing really hit though. They go into a clinch, and the pace disappears as both fighters try and get the advantage. Eventually the referee separates them. Jab from Rush, who then has to react quickly to avoid a right hook that was aimed right at the chin. Rush puts on a burst of energy and fires off a big sequence of punches, maybe twelve or thirteen in a row, although not many actually connected. Napier covered up well, and gets in a couple of shots of his own before moving out of range again. Other than a few half-hearted jabs, there's been a definite lull over the past minute. Low kick from Napier, almost to the groin, although it didn't look intentional. They come together in a clinch again, and it returns to a stalemate. Not a great round by anyone's standard, but that flurry should mean that Rush will take the round on points. The second round is over. Blurcat.com has it down as 10-9 Rush.

Round Three: The fighters come together right in the center. Napier throws out a jab, but Rush bobs out of the way and uses a right hand to glance a blow off the side of the ribs in response. Rush works an angle and storms in suddenly with three crisp jabs and a looping overhand punch, Napier covered up quickly but at least one of the jabs hit home. Rush is making Napier look sluggish in comparison, such is the speed and crispness with which he is delivering strikes. Napier hits a low kick before back-pedalling to avoid a clubbing blow. Napier narrowly misses a right cross. They meet in the center to exchange a flurry of strikes that gets the crowd on their feet. Rush got slightly the better of it, he definitely snuck through a right hand that rocked Napier slightly. Napier initiates a clinch, and the action grinds to a halt. Napier looks out of ideas, he is being repeatedly lured into these exchange of strikes, but Rush is clearly winning them. Napier needs to find some way to deal with them. Not much time left in this round. The referee separates them. Rush tries a speculative high kick, but Napier saw it coming and was well out of range by the time it came. Napier tries to work an angle, but Rush is having none of it and fires off a straight right hand to keep him from stepping in. Comfortable round for Rush, he will probably be disappointed not to have done more damage given his dominance of the striking in this round. End of the round. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Rush. The judges scores are unanimous, and give a score of 30-27 to Andrew Rush. (**)

Rush debuts and continues his streak to 13. Napier suffers his first defeat of his career. The BCF Boys get their first win! Blurcat 3-3
-------------------------
LightHeavyweight:
Curt Kitson (10-3) vs. Christopher Sharp (9-1)
Blurcat Prediction: Sharp via T.K.O.

Round One:
They clinch. Sharp fires off a couple of right hands to the ribs, then ducks down and secures a leg. Kitson hops up and down, but can't prevent Sharp from simply pushing forward and taking them to the ground. Kitson uses his free leg to wrap up a half guard, and manages to secure that to full guard pretty swiftly. Sharp drops a bomb of a right hand, smashing into the hands of Kitson and forcing them back into his face. Another right hand finds its way through, landing right above the eye, stunning Kitson. With his opponent's wits scrambled, Sharp moves from the guard into a mount with ease, and starts unloading with rights and lefts. Kitson tries to cover up, but is getting decimated, and the referee is forced to come in and pull Sharp off, signalling the win. Sharp wins via first round TKO at 49 seconds. (**)

Sharp absolutely kills Kitson! BCF loses another one! Blurcat 4-3.
-------------------------
LightHeavyweight:
George Laurent (12-1) vs. Aleksei Chekhov (8-2)
Blurcat Prediction: Laurent via Knock Out

Round One:
Laurent isn't hanging around, right from the start Chekhov is forced onto the back foot by four hard shots, although none of them get through the gloves. Chekhov circles, steps in, then unloads a combination of punches, but Laurent weaves out of the way and scores with a beauty of a right hand, glancing above the right eye. That was some lovely counter punching from Laurent, the timing had to be perfect and it was. Chekhov is looking a bit frustrated, and uncorks a ragged-looking uppercut that missed by several inches. Laurent really should have taken advantage of that mistake, Chekhov was wide open for a moment there. Laurent hits a high kick, catching Chekhov on the shoulder. Jab from Chekhov finds the mark, but it didn't have much power behind it as he was leaning backward too much. Laurent fires off a couple of straight punches in response, but only finds gloves. They clinch, and the fight enters a lull. Chekhov scores with a knee from the clinch, it landed around the hip area of Laurent, who responds with a couple of shots to the ribs. The time runs out with them still clinched though. End of round 1. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Laurent.

Round Two: Laurent throws two high punches, then steps in for a hook to the body. Nice combination, but Chekhov defended with ease. They clinch up next to the ropes, but a short struggle only ends with them separating and coming back in. They are up against the ropes, clinched. Laurent scores with two knees, but takes an elbow to the face in return. It seemed to catch him just above the eye. A second elbow hits the same place, and blood spurts out. That was pretty disgusting, blood actually spurted out like a geyser, right onto the chest of Chekhov. They exchange low kicks that don't go anywhere. The referee pulls them apart, but halts the clock as he wants the doctor to check the cut. A close-up shows that it's a really deep cut, and quite close to the eye. The doctor is shaking his head, despite the protests of Laurent he gives the signal to the referee that Laurent cannot continue. Official time of the medical stoppage is 1:11 of the second round. (**)
BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!! Yeah, people love it when blood spurts out!!! The BCF boys are 1-3 in their debut matches. Blurcat is 4-4.
-------------------------
GAMMA Welterweight Title:
Julio Regueiro (c) (9-0-1) vs. Ichisake Miyagi (14-6)
Blurcat Prediction: Regueiro via Decision

Round One:
Regueiro is quickest out, and comes at Miyagi with a series of jabs and straight punches. Miyagi covered up well, and I don't think anything got through. Miyagi hits a body shot, but it didn't connect solidly. They get in close, and it's Regueiro who takes it to the ground. Miyagi pulls guard. There's a lull, as Regueiro tries to pass, and Miyagi defends it. Punches get thrown every so often, but it's really a stalemate at the moment. Miyagi almost gets a guillotine, but it's blocked and almost leads to a kimura for Regueiro, but that too goes nowhere. The referee stands them up, but the time is almost over. The round is over. Blurcat.com gives that one to Regueiro by 10-9.

Round Two: Miyagi starts out with a few straight rights, range-finding rather than actually dangerous. Regueiro keeps out of their way. Miyagi steps forward and tries to unload with a looping left, but Regueiro moves to the side and fires off a powerful right hand of his own, landing above the left eye. Miyagi doesn't go down, but definitely felt that shot. Regueiro moves in closer and fires off two punches to the face and a big hook to the body. Miyagi parried the first two, but the third hit home hard. Regueiro begins to stalk Miyagi, who may be slightly winded. They meet again in the center and exchange blows. Miyagi hits a high jab but gets caught with another hard punch to the side of the head. Miyagi clinches up, stopping Regueiro from following up. It looks like Miyagi needs to change his game plan, standing up and banging with Regueiro is playing right into his opponent's hands, as Regueiro clearly has the more powerful strikes in his arsenal, and Miyagi is going to get floored sooner or later, judging by this round. The referee parts them from the clinch. Regueiro continues to look ready to unleash some big punches. Miyagi takes a takedown, then comes in much closer, throws a jab, and clinches back up. Miyagi looks like he is going to grapple, stopping Regueiro from throwing bombs. Miyagi gets in a few short punches to the ribs. The round ends with them still in the clinch. Regueiro will take that round on points, having used the threat of a knock out to basically control everything about that round except the clinches. End of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Regueiro.

Round Three: Slow start to the round, there's a lot of circling going on, not much contact though. Regueiro fakes a kick, then darts in to score with a left hand to the shoulder region. Miyagi almost catches Regueiro with a massive left hook. A big arcing kick from Regueiro catches Miyagi on the shoulder, it wasn't far away from landing on the side of the jaw. Miyagi storms in throwing a flurry of blows, but Regueiro dodges out of the way. A jab catches Miyagi on the cheek, then another big kick hits home, this time into the ribs. Regueiro is really using those big kicks well, they're both keeping Miyagi at bay and hurting him. Miyagi tries another attack, first working an angle away from the kicks then coming in with a couple of straight rights. Regueiro defends it well, parrying the punches away and moving to safety before Miyagi can unload with any bombs. Regueiro hits another kick, this time to the thigh, setting it up with a couple of raking punches. That's the last significant action of the round, a round that Regueiro has dominated with kicks. End of the round. Blurcat.com gives that one to Regueiro by 10-9.

Round Four: The round begins with Miyagi taking the iniative, coming in quickly with a straight right and a leg kick. Regueiro replies with a snap jab and a wild left that misses by a long way. Miyagi goes for the takedown, but Regueiro sprawls. Miyagi tries to power through, but Regueiro uses that against him and turns it into a takedown of his own. They're quite close to the ropes, which may help Miyagi defend this. Regueiro is in guard. He throws a couple of half-hearted jabs, then tries to pass, but Miyagi isn't allowing it. Miyagi pulls Regueiro in tight, locking up both his arms. Regueiro pulls free and again tries to pass guard. This has turned into a bit of a stalemate, the referee may be thinking of standing them up if nothing happens soon. Regueiro tries a big right hand, which Miyagi defends well. He has quite a high guard, Regueiro has to be wary not to fall into a triangle when leaning in like that. Miyagi once again drags Regueiro down into a clinch, and this time even tries to work a guillotine, but Regueiro easily deals with it and hands out two solid right hands to the ribs along the way. We're back to Regueiro trying to pass guard. Miyagi tries to throw a big punch and almost hands an armbar to Regueiro, but he realises the danger in time and manages to recover. The referee finally gets them back to their feet due to the lack of progress that has been made. Regueiro scores with a jab, then a second. Miyagi goes for a sweeping kick to the right knee, but it isn't fast enough and gives Regueiro enough time to take him down again. Regueiro quickly goes to pass guard, looking for side control, but Miyagi once again defends it. It looks like a frustrating round will end with them on the ground, and almost certainly has to go to Regueiro on points due to him being the aggressor and getting two takedowns in. The round ends. Blurcat.com scores it 10-9 for Regueiro.

Round Five: Miyagi comes out quick and immediately starts pressing Regueiro back toward the ropes. Miyagi tries to use the position to his advantage, pinning Regueiro in to prevent him from moving freely, but the exchange of punches that follows is clearly won by Regueiro, who catches Miyagi with a wicked right cross during the flurry of blows. Miyagi tries again, but Regueiro is looking sharp and parries away any dangerous shot, getting in a few crisp jabs of his own along the way. Miyagi finally backs off, realising that this isn't working. Regueiro is showing superior ability with his hands, they're fast and accurate, Miyagi isn't able to cope with them at close quarters, being made to look slow and ragged in comparison. Miyagi switches to using raking right hands and looping punches, keeping Regueiro back, but its effectiveness is limited as Miyagi's punches are easily parried away, and Regueiro can still hit the occasional right hand. The round ends with that being the pattern. Regueiro has used his better punching technique and hand speed to confound Miyagi, and has controlled this round almost entirely. That's the end of the round. Blurcat.com sees it 10-9 to Regueiro. Julio Regueiro wins, with a score of 50-45 from two judges, 49-46 from the other. Julio Regueiro successfully retains the GAMMA Welterweight title. (***)

Regueiro lasts a grueling 25 minutes against Miyagi, and retains the title. Blurcat 5-4
-------------------------
GAMMA Heavyweight Title:
Raul Hughes (c) (11-0) vs. Rick Stanley (20-7-3)
Blurcat Prediction: Hughes via Knock Out

Round One: They circle to start, both throwing a few tentative jabs. An uppercut misses its mark from Stanley, providing the first moment of real action. Hughes hits a nice combination of body shots to set up a big right hook, but Stanley side-stepped to safety. A few punches get thrown, but there's a lack of real action to talk about. Hughes is being slightly the more aggressive, but neither fighter is really going for it. They come together again and exchange punches, but no big shots get through, and they end up clinched for a while. The referee separates them, but the time is ticking away and this round looks like it's going to the judges. The first round is over. Blurcat.com scores 10-9 Hughes.

Round Two:
Right hand from Hughes was thrown with power, but bounced off the gloves of Stanley. Hughes follows up by coming in close, but Stanley is ready with a straight right hand that glances off the side of the head. Tentative long range jabs from both fighters. Stanley with a low sweeping kick, but it was telegraphed. Hughes comes in quick but misses a kick. Stanley with a straight right, another, but then walks right into a solid punch. That certainly connected, the crowd could clearly hear it. Stanley backs up quickly, almost on instinct; his hands are down by his side, and he looks glassy eyed and unsteady on his feet. The referee quickly steps in and ends the fight, stopping Hughes from following up. It'll go down as a TKO for Hughes. As Hughes celebrates, the doctor is quickly in to check on Stanley. From the looks of things, he may have been dealt a concussion with that punch to the jaw, as he doesn't look like he knows where he is. The official time is 1:45. Raul Hughes successfully retains the GAMMA Heavyweight title. (***)

BAM! Hughes defeats Stanley! The streak is alive! 12-0! WHOOO!

Looks like it was a solid show. 8-2 is a nice prediction record. Quite surprised by the Stiles match as he is a beast in my game and Magilton is a pushover.

So do feel that the default database is "big enough"? I know I'll buy this thing eventually, I'm just trying to decide if I wait for the definitive mod.

The database is big enough for the 4 promotions in the game. I would love to see a mod with several low-level promotions fighting for the top spot, though; similar to the DOTT mod for TEW. It's easy enough to play GAMMA or APLHA-1 without ever going bankrupt.
