March 22nd, 2010 at 3:55 am
How about Josh Moore or Adam Farrell vs green.
And luke Spencer is an exciting fighter. Wonder how his long layoff will affect him
March 22nd, 2010 at 5:12 am
hes had a long layoff but i dont think hes ever stopped training. he had a gym in toronto but its not there anymore
March 22nd, 2010 at 5:15 am

March 22nd, 2010 at 5:35 am

March 22nd, 2010 at 5:56 am
Stans would put green in a como haha.. Green doesn’t have a chin as seen in his previous fights. He got dropped by a 55er in his last fight.. Watch STO

Who’s mad dog
March 22nd, 2010 at 6:32 am
kellen hughes
March 22nd, 2010 at 2:05 pm
I think Kellen pulls out the dec by his wrestling or maybe if he lands that big left hook we seen in the past.
March 23rd, 2010 at 12:59 am
kellen wins 2nd round rear naked
March 23rd, 2010 at 2:51 am
any predictions on the pro fights im taking kellen thad mickey lester and luke
March 23rd, 2010 at 3:45 am
someone said fight got rescheduled till nov now is this tru let me no thanxs
March 23rd, 2010 at 3:46 pm
Not true at all. Arpil 24th is signed sealed and we will deliver. This should be one of the better cards of the year.
March 24th, 2010 at 2:05 am
anyone know if mark hoppel still fights
March 24th, 2010 at 2:08 am
why do hey always have trouble finding green an opponent i know the last fights up liverpoole they did and looks like they r again
March 25th, 2010 at 4:24 am
Prolly because green scares everyone at weigh ins. Hopefully they find a tougher opponent this time so we all can see what level green is on.
March 25th, 2010 at 4:26 am
And I don’t think Mark hoppel can pass a CT scan after getting KTFO by Duell
March 27th, 2010 at 5:13 am
i agree with ya 100 percent i hope they find a tougher opponent also but hey we will see. there saying noel is fighting but i dont see im on the fight card hes an awesome wrestler.
March 31st, 2010 at 3:48 am
there going to be a after party at the motor lodge again and come on get bam bam a opponent
April 1st, 2010 at 12:32 pm
lets have a caughey vs. best rematch. It was fight of the week once, lets see if they can do it agin, my moneys on Caughey this time.
April 2nd, 2010 at 8:45 pm
Best beat caughey at his own game. That would be a step back for Best.
April 3rd, 2010 at 6:31 am
that was a hell of a fight i think if caughey had a lil more stamina he would beat best. every1 says best has some heavy hands if he has em caughey has concrete for a chin he hit him with everything he had
April 3rd, 2010 at 6:36 am
anybody know anything about charles wilson i know lukes record aint the best be he has lost 2 fights to dent 1 to mac danzig and to gurgel and theres no shame in that
April 4th, 2010 at 3:01 am
Mickey and Joles will be a great fight but mickey will win hands down
April 6th, 2010 at 1:20 pm
Eric noel is going to kill his guy.. Kellen i think the fight will go till the end and Mickey will get a sub.. Holt isnt fighting anymore on this card. I believe also luke will prob get a desion.
April 7th, 2010 at 4:25 am
whos noel fighting
April 9th, 2010 at 12:52 pm
No Caughey beat himself, and he said he’d take the rematch and a heart beat if neither of them could get fights. Nelson knows he got away with one the first time, he won’t take it.
April 10th, 2010 at 1:18 am
What did Nelson get away with?? Caughey should be lucky there were no good HWT around when he was in HS or he woulda never been state champ. That was the most pathetic shot ive ever seen someone take let alone from a state champ.
April 11th, 2010 at 3:35 pm
Well i can think of at least one ohio state champ he beat, Hoppel, and I believe there is at least one more may be two. And dont get me wrong Nelson is a tough guy, but of the two, Joey would be more eager to fight Nelson, than the other way around.
April 11th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
Eckles should destroy Metsch. I was not impressed at all with Metsch in his last fight. He looked scared and afraid to do ANYTHING close to his opponent. I’m suprised he acted the way he did after the fight was over. I am not sure if he heard all the BOOing going on or not. The only thing he had going for him was he was in his hometown.
April 12th, 2010 at 8:42 pm
Cody “No Love” Garbrandt is back in action that kid is the real deal still in highschool 18 yrs old!! Heard he is going to Michigan State next year thats impressive for not really wrestling in two years!! Good Luck No Love.
April 14th, 2010 at 12:34 am
Hear Eackles backed out as usual. “No Love” is defintly a beast
April 14th, 2010 at 4:06 am
i hear that rhett and jeb are fighting now that will be a hell of a fight and can we get the fight card updated
April 15th, 2010 at 1:03 am
NoLove for sure is a beast he is a huge 135!
April 18th, 2010 at 3:22 pm
to let everyone no eackles did not back out it was tony.. tony dont wanna lose he is afrid of eackles
April 19th, 2010 at 2:49 pm
Will this fight be live webstream @ Ustream? anyone know 4 sure?
April 19th, 2010 at 11:22 pm
Yes it will be. We will stream all taped for TV NAAFS event son Ustream.
April 20th, 2010 at 3:20 am
thanx to the naafs for having fights in the ohio valley. i hope ya continue to have them in EL theres a bunch of great fighters in this area im just glad theres a organization to let them show there skills
April 25th, 2010 at 5:05 pm
Results?
April 26th, 2010 at 3:30 pm
TDOG…Nelson killed Caughey in the first fight and I think Caughey would reconsider the rematch after the knock out Nelson threw out there on Saturday!!!
April 26th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
the fights on saturday were better then i expected them to be. I ended up watching almost all of it on ustream and was glad i didnt pay 45 for the wec.
