SCF 10: Holgate vs Santos II

Steve Lawson: Our first fight of the evening is Jovial Evil vs Jon Steels! Alot of bad blood brewing here Mike after the two got into a verbal battle which reached the point where Jovial even offered to put his whole purse up if he lost!

Mike Calloway: Jovial Evil is making it known early that he's no push over. He's the new guy and now he has all eyes on him wondering if he can live up to the hype. John Steels is no push over though, after losing badly in his first fight against Jeffery, he came back strong in his second against Cal, I'm just looking forward to seeing which Jon shows up tonight as well as how good Jovial Evil really is.

Steve Lawson: Did you see these guys at the press conference Mike?

Mike Calloway: Alot of trash talking from both parties which means that now both these fighters HAVE to win their fight. Unfortunately for one of them, they're going to have to eat alot of crow after they lose.

Steve Lawson: One person who did alot of trash talking himself on his way to the top is ironically in Jon Steels corner, that man being Arnold Hemingway.
Hype Jovial Evil vs Jon Steels

Mike Calloway: Arnold Hemingway will be in Jon's corner so it'll be interesting to see what happens and what game plan is used because Arnold Hemingway is a stand up fighter, but Steel's last win was via submission. Will Arnold have Steels stand and trade with Evil? I've never seen Jovial fight so I don't know what to expect, regardless I think we're in for a good fight.

Steve Lawson: Up next within the Lightweight Division Peter DeScott! Looks to rebound from his most recent upset by taking on William Foster!

Mike Calloway: I tell you, Supreme is nothing like Starrcadia and these former champions are realizing first hand. DeScott was very dominant in Starrcadia and coming to the SCF he's been struggling a bit. A win over Foster would set him back on track but a loss could be devastating.

Steve Lawson: You also have to think about the people he's been facing ever since getting here though Mike, every person he's faced thus far has been a champion, or championship material.

Mike Calloway: Defeated Leenig twice who is one of the most aggressive female fighters I've ever seen, then loss to another dangerous striker in Ping Wong, DeScott has had nothing but tough fights ever since stepping into the SupremeCF. So to say he's been struggling in the SCF, it's not like he's been facing 0-0 fighters, he's fought some of the best.

Steve Lawson: And what about William Foster who is also coming off of a loss himself?

Mike Calloway: Foster is fairly new to the SCF, but looked impressive in defeat. A win over Peter DeScott would be huge for him, especially since DeScott has a win over David Lee, the man who defeated Foster.

Steve Lawson: Venom is deadly, but is it enough to to stop The Hitman? We find out next, as DeScott! faces William Foster!

Steve Lawson: Next we move from Lightweight, to Heavyweight as Anthony Scardera faces Korban James!

Mike Calloway: Anthony is a really tough fighter, came in and destroyed his opponent in less than 2 minutes of his SCF debut, loves to throw leather but since then he really hasn't been able to show off his skills. First losing to D.J. Dyn, then Conrad Howell by TKO. Now he faces Korban James, another man who loves to strike but hasn't been able to truly showcase his skills. He was defeated by the now Heavyweight Champion Dan Gallant via TKO but came back strong and showing what he could do when on his game by knocking out Frank Masters. Just when it seemed as if he would start to rebound, he was knocked off again by Saxon Holgate So both of these guys have potential, if they both show up tonight with their minds right, this could very well be the fight of the night

Steve Lawson: Thanks Mike. Without further adu, Anthony Scardera vs Korban James!

Steve Lawson: Back down to the Lightweight Division as Matt Enigma takes on Keith Kimber!

Mike Calloway: Matt Enigma hasn't fought since SCF 3, a fight which was pretty back much back and forth up until Daniels landed a hard kick that hyper extended Enigma's right leg. With his leg now 100% Matt is looking to come back and put a hurting on his opponent Keith Kimber. Kimber is making his SCF debut much like Enigma was that night and does not plan on losing this fight. This should be a good one folks.

Steve Lawson: Beowulf MacDougall vs Ricky McKinley!

Mike Calloway: Another fight in which alot is on a line especially McKinley, as he went as far as saying that if he loses his fight tonight, he'll retire from fighting.

Steve Lawson: He just be confident in his game plan though Mike

Mike Calloway: He could be, but in the fight game anything can happen, he could run out there, slip and have MacDougall take advantage and win the fight. But atleast we know that we're getting a McKinley that is going to give 100% because his future is at stake. And I'm pretty sue that MacDougal does not want to be 0-2 in the SCF, so he's going to bring his A game as well

Steve Lawson: Also fighting within the Middleweight Division we have Naruto Silva taking on Andy Magnum!

Mike Calloway: Magnum hasn't fought since SCF 5, a fight he won via Unanimous Decision against Rick McKinley.

Steve Lawson: Could a five card lay off effect his performance here tonight Mike?

Mike Calloway: For sure. Fighters get better with time and Naruto at one point was fighting every other card win or lose. He took a small break recently to refocus himself while Andy just disappeared. Plus Andy Magnum is somewhat of a brawler, his ground game isn't the best, it's what got him his first SupremeCF loss against former champ Gilberto and what may cost him the fight tonight if he isn't careful as Naruto Silva is very skilled on the ground. That and he's motivated. He's tired of going to decisions, he's lost two fights in a row so he's tired of losing, and a win over Andy Magnum would be big for him, so this fight puts pressure on both men

Steve Lawson: It's just a matter of wherever the fight ends up

Mike Calloway: Exactly


Steve Lawson: Alright thanks Mike. In a Division where the space between contender and champion is very far apart, who will put them self that much closer to the top? Will it be Naruto Silva, or Andy Magnum?

Steve Lawson: And here we go Mike! The rematch!

Mike Calloway: I've been waiting for this one ever since the first one ended Steve, the fight was one of the most competitive fights I've seen in a long time. They both did everything possible to defeat each other. I'm talking standing up , submissions, wrestling, they did it all Steve.

Steve Lawson: And now they come back to do it again. But believe it or not Mike, Robert Holgate is still a huge underdog.

Mike Calloway: Out of all the people that voted on who would win this fight Steve, 80% believe Gilberto will be a 2x Middleweight Champion, 80%! One would think that Winning the StarrcadiaCF Featherweight, StarrcadiaCF Lightweight and SupremeCF Middleweight titles would be enough, but as I said earlier SupremeCF is a whole different ballgame than Starrcadia, it's on a whole nother level that makes the former champions actually seem average. Gilberto strikes fear into the competition here at SupremeCF and most didn't even expect Robert to survive, let alone win the Middleweight strap. So being the underdog doesn't effect him at all, infact I think he likes proving people wrong.

Steve Lawson: Gilberto does not like to lose Mike. Their first fight ended with a split decision and after the fight Gilberto still felt he had won still. This made him train harder, tapping out Carmelo who is a very good BJJ fighter in preparation for this fight. Alot is on the line, Robert Holgate is ready to shock the fans for a second time, Gilberto ready to reclaim what he feels is rightfully his, Middleweight title is on the line in the Main Event as Robert Holgate faces Gilberto Dos Santos!
