| LOSS FOR DUNCAN AND MOW2 BUT SOLID LESSON LEARNED |
|
| DUNCAN DEACON FOUGHT "STAZ" FROM THE BOXING CLINIC, CORK ON SATURDAY. THE FIRST ROUND WENT VERY MUCH TO PLAN WITH STAZ DEMONSTRATING CONSIDERABLE STRIKING POWER, BUT DUNCAN WAS ABLE TO TAKE HIM DOWN AND SECURE MOUNT POSITION TWICE IN THE ROUND. THE FIRST TIME STAZ WAS ABLE TO ROLL INTO DUNCAN'S GUARD HAVING TAKEN SOME MINOR GROUND AND POUND AGAINST THE CAGE. FROM INSIDE DUNCANS GUARD STAZ WORKED SOME GNP BUT NOTHING MAJOR LANDED AND THE FIGHT RETURNED TO STANDING. JUST BEFORE THE END OF THE ROUND DUNCAN SCORED ANOTHER TAKE DOWN AND AGAIN SECURED MOUNT. DURING THIS TRANSITION DUNCAN RECEIVED A CUT TO THE TOP OF HIS HEAD BUT IT WAS UNCLEAR HOW THIS HAPPENED. HE POSTURED UP TO STRIKE BUT THE BELL WENT FOR THE END OF A ROUND THAT I BELIEVE DUNCAN HAD SECURED ON POINTS.
BETWEEN ROUNDS THE CUT MAN AND REFEREE CHECKED DUNCAN'S CUT AND DEEMED IT MINOR AND THAT IT WAS SAFE TO CONTINUE. THE BREAK HAD ALLOWED STAZ AND HIS CORNER TO MAKE SOME DECISIVE ADJUSTMENTS AND STAZ WAS ABLE TO AVOID DUNCAN'S TAKEDOWNS AND DELIVER SOME HEAVY PUNCHES STANDING. ULTIMATELY A SHOT TO THE BODY ENDED THE FIGHT.
CONGRATULATIONS TO STAZ AND HIS TEAM. NO DOUBT DUNCAN WILL LEARN SOME LESSONS FROM THIS FIGHT AND COME BACK STRONGER NEXT TIME! LOSSES LIKE THIS ONE MAKE FIGHTERS BETTER THAN ANY WIN WILL SO WE ARE TAKING ONLY POSITIVES FROM DUNCAN'S PERFORMANCE! |

| JASON HURLEY WINS "SUBMISSION OF THE NIGHT" ON HIS MMA DEBUT |
|
| JASON HURLEY WON HIS DEBUT WITH A "SUBMISSION OF THE NIGHT" WINNING PERFORMANCE AGAINST SAM KEATING OF LUCAN MMA ON SATURDAY NIGHT. JASON WAS PRESSURED BY HIS OPPONENT STANDING, BUT WHEN THE FIGHT WENT TO GROUND IT WAS INSIDE JASON'S CLOSED GUARD WHICH HAPPENS TO BE A VERY STRONG ASPECT OF HIS GAME. HAVING AVOIDED DAMAGE FROM SOME INITIAL GROUND AND POUND, JASON BEGAN WORKING HIS GO-TO KIMURA/HIP-HEIST/GUILLOTINE GAME AND HIS OPPONENT WAS UNABLE TO PREVENT HIS ARM FROM BEING WORKED BEHIND HIS BACK. AFTER THAT IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF HOW LONG HE COULD HOLD OUT AND ULTIMATELY WAS FORCED TO TAP OUT. AWESOME DEBUT FOR JASON! |
