Fightergalla 17 – Fight reports

 As i went to germany to watch the UFC the very same night and couldn't be there, one of my friends stepped in and offered to write about the event.
I personally think Jacob Nielsen did a really good job and i would really like to thank him!
Here it goes;

Fightergalla 17 – House of Pain. To me it looked like a very cool fightcard, and I was certainly not disappointed. It had a lot of very intense fights that really got the crowd going although they were holding back on the cheers. The results are as follows:

SHOOTFIGHTING.


Theo Ginman Arte Suave vs. Stefan Kryger Jørgensen CSA.dk Cph - 73kg.
Theo won by decision.
Theo dominated the fight from the clinch the first half of the fight, until he hit Stefan with an accidental low blow. After that Stefan tried to come back with his striking, but it was not enough. Pretty soon he ended up clinched against the cage, and lost the fight.

Dan Dahl XGYM Aalborg vs. Jonas Fidelman Fightgym.dk Odense – 80kg.
Jonas won by decision.
What a fight! Both fighters came out ready to bang, and they did just that! Dan was knocked down and counted over very early, but came back and took Jonas down twice for an all out submission war. Jonas was closer to finishing the fight, which gave him the judge’s votes and the win!

Jens Dall Sønderborg MMA vs. Rasmus Foged Fightgym.dk Odense – 76kg.
Rasmus won by decision.
Relatively uneventful fight. Rasmus got the fights only takedown, and showed good control in the guard. Later they got back up, and he kept controlling the fight in the clinch. But none of the fighters were in any real danger.

Sammy Stiti fightcraft.dk vs. Jonas Larsen Fightgym.dk Odense 71kg.
Jonas won by TKO.
Pretty intense stand up battle. About half way in Sammy dislocated his left shoulder doing a hook, and doubled over in pain. Jonas showed a lot of sportsmanship by giving Sammy’s corner men his sweatshirt for them to sling his arm in. I hope he will be back; he looked like an entertaining fighter to watch.

AMATEUR MMA.


Paul Johannesson XGYM Aalborg vs. Kristian Hansen Fightpit.dk Herning – 66kg.
Kristian won by submission – Rear Naked Choke.
Paul went for the takedown early and got it. On the ground Kristian showed good control, and quickly got Paul’s back. Most of the round Kristian tried to sink in the RNC, but just couldn’t do it. In the end he set it up properly, and it paid off.


Rune Petersen fightcraft vs. Frederik Jostelius MMA Gøteborg - 65kg.
Frederik won by decision.
Frederik got both takedowns in this fight, and was very dominant on the ground. In round 2 Rune tried to fight back standing, and Frederik looked very tired, but it was not enough. Frederik ended up getting the judges favor.


Hassan Abuzaid Sønderborg MMA vs. Allan Neuherr Butchers Lab Cph – 76kg.
Allan won by submission – Rear Naked Choke.
The fight was very even, with both fighters landing heavy punches, until Allan got a spectacular takedown about halfway through round 1. He dominated on the ground and soon secured a submission victory.

Emil Weber Meek MMA Trondheim Norge vs. Milan Silva CSA.dk Cph – 82kg.
Emil won by TKO.
This was a kind of odd fight. Emil made two fouls; first he hit Milan in the back of the head in the clinch – Repeatedly! When the referee split them up, and restarted the fight, Emil low blowed Milan, and sent him huffing and puffing for almost 1 minute. When they actually got to fighting Emil brutally knocked Milan on his back with a hard right, and quickly followed up with hammer fists on the ground, till the ref. stopped the fight.

Thomas Plet fightcraft.dk vs. Paul Rostad Stockholm CSA.dk Cph – 81kg.
Paul won by submission – Guillotine.
Thomas tried for the takedown all throughout the fight, and ended up in a bad clinch position. Paul took advantage, and sunk in the guillotine, and dropped to his back.


STAND UP FIGHT.

Michael Andersen Mikenta vs. Mads Bondo Fightgym.dk -65kg.
Mads won by submission.
It was a very even fight. It waged back and forth. Michael Andersen was fouled for a knee to the head. Mads was a little more effective than Michael and ended up with the decision win.

PRO MMA.

Earl Brown England vs. Peter Kirkegaard Fightgym.dk – 91kg
Peter won by decision.
Really a one-sided affair. Peter got the takedown early in round one, and dominated with strikes and elbows from both mount, sidemount, and the top of the guard. Earl sweeped him with 15 seconds to go, but failed to make anything of it. Both in the second and third round Peter was close to finishing the fight with strikes and submission, but Earl held his own, and it went to the judges.

Raymond Jarman Mike’s Gym Holland vs. Nicolas Dalby fightcraft.dk – 77kg.
Nicolas won by submission – RNC.
An all out standup war. Early in the fight Raymond seemed invulnerable to Nicolas excellent standup. And even blocked every one of the Sharpshooters trademark high kicks. Raymond got cut under the right eye, but that did nothing to dampen his heart. He even taunted Nicolas to hit him on the chin and chest. They slugged it out until Raymond went for a takedown and Nicolas hit him with a knee/kick to the face, knocking him down and allowing Nicolas to take the back and choke him.

Ben Schneider England vs. Lars Besand XGYM Danmark – 91kg.
Lars won by TKO.
Lars secured the takedown very early and worked a bit to secure a proper position. But once that was obtained he let his hands go, and hit Ben with a barrage of punches and elbows, that even made Ben go limb before the referee called a stop, and gave Lars the win. Lars then took the announcers mic and let the audience know, that he is serious about not just doing MMA, but doing it properly. Then he invited his long time girlfriend Christina into the cage. I think she was expecting him to thank her, for her support or some such, because when he fell to one knee, she was shocked to say the least! He asked her to marry him, and she of course said yes. So a huge double win for Lars that evening!

European Title fight.

Domingos Mestre GBG MMA Sverige vs. David Rosmon Fightgym.dk – 77kg.
Domingos won by decision.
It was a very even fight. They both kept it standing all the way through, and didn’t seem interested in any form of ground fighting. By round three they both seemed gassed, albeit David seemed a bit more. That made it possible for Domingos to dish out a bit more punishment than David, and I think that won him the fight and the belt.


All in all it was definitely a cool show. I can’t wait till the next Fightergalla on the 12th of FEB 2011.
