He defeated Bast Moulke by second round knock out in the Quarter-Finals. Nate MacReary is a tough opponent to be saddled with, virtually immovable due to his size, strength, and wrestling skill. Once he has a hold of his victim, there is no escape. He defeated Lachlan Bowen by second round submission in the Quarter-Finals.

He beat Nimrod Wickhammersley by Unanimous Decision in the Quarter-Finals.

Heavyweight Bout: Sylvester Collins (9-1, 0-1 CTC, Favorite: -880) vs. Don Norman (25-17, 0-1 CTC, Underdog: +700)

His normal tactic is to overwhelm opponents with his wrestling, but he also has big power in his hands. He lost by first round TKO to Mason Archer in the Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals.

Fallout

- Takauji Aida say that it would be an interesting fight if he fought Tossapol Puangchan. This is definately a possibility.

- Lito Alcala took the mic after his victory over Newton Reis, and called out Markus Waller. Waller is revealed later in the show to be his opponent in the Finals.

- Markus Waller grabs the mic after his match, and declares himself "pretty much unbeatable" and says he plans to retire undefeated.

- Brian Claremont is asked about his next opponent after his fight, and says he respects the skills of Roddy Wickham, and thinks this would be a good fight. While this might be a good fight, Claremonts next fight will be against Ollie Rockmetteller for the Bantamweight Title!

- Stiffy Little sustained a broken jaw in his fight with Brian Claremont, and will be out a few weeks.

- Anthony LeToussier practically ripped the mic out of the persons hand, and demanded to fight Mike Watson next. Both will be in the Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament in Season 2, but the final bracket has yet to be decided. The two fought at Sunday Night Fights 1, ending in a quickly knock out victory for Watson.

March 10, 2020

Good for Petr Yan. Can't wait to see Rose fighting for the title. Can't wait to see who Shogun's next fight is, and whether he can win himself a title shot.

Super Heavyweight Bout: Irwin Middleton (5-1, Favorite: -110) vs. Dwight Witherspoon (5-0, Underdog: +100)

Irwin Middleton was part of the first season of GAMMA: Clash of the Titans, where he made it to the finals, before losing to Davey Rushton. He earned the nickname "MurderFist" for his brutal ground and pound stoppages. Since losing to Rushton, Middleton has reeled off three straight victories, a first round knock out of Peter Windsor, and Unanimous Decision victories over Eric Hughes and Gary Sampson, all in GAMMA. Dwight Witherspoon is a kickboxer, but has taken enough BJJ classes to have solid ground fundamentals , including a nasty triangle that makes good use of his long legs.

Matas Fialkowska is a fighter trained in Krav Maga, who loves nothing better than getting in the cage and going to war. He started competing at Super Heavyweight, even though he could really be a really big Heavyweight. Marmaduke Chuffnell is a fighter that apparently has a chin made of adamantium. A wrestler, he likes to use his bulk to crush opponents, but has horrible cardio, and no reach.

MAIN CARD

Sherman Shields is a scary sight to see across the cage. He likes to use his enormous strength to squash foes. He is very vulnerable to submissions. Gunnar Rasmussen is a huge, towering figure, who has been doing Karate since he was 12, and is noted for his excellent movement, and counter strikes.

Super Heavyweight Bout: Seb Morehead (9-1, Favorite: -420) vs. Hans Gorner (2-0, Underdog: +330)

He is coming off a Unanimous Decision loss to Kel Ryan in GAMMA. Hans Gorner is a kickboxer, noted for his fast and accurate strikes, he lacks the power you'd expect from someone his size.

Super Heavyweight Bout: Marvin Stevens (27-12, Favorite: -230) vs. Sebastian Cyr (1-0, 1-0 CTC, Underdog: +180)

Super Heavyweight Bout: Dan Bickersteth (5-0, Favorite: -360) vs. Svein Haugen (1-0, Favorite: +280)

Pretty one dimensional right now, he is working hard to add to his MMA arsenal.

His general striking is not quite as good, but is good enough he shouldn't be underestimated.

Super Heavyweight Bout: Zydrunas Sigauskas (2-0, Favorite: -230) vs. Colin JL Capes (2-0, Underdog: +180)

Zydrunas Sigauska is a massive grappler, with immense strength. Once he gets a hold of you he's very difficult to shake off.

Hope Faber whips TJ's butt. What's going on with Bellator? Are you controlling them now? Threw them a bunch of money? Just making up a story to go along with your dynasty? You've got my interest piqued.

March 8, 2020

Wow, two vacated belts from one card, that's crazy, almost as crazy as the results of the latest card. Lee beats Khabib! Must open up a lot of fights. Looking forward to seeing what happens next in the Lightweight Division, as well as the Light Heavyweight Tournament!

Humphreys Signs For CTC!

In breaking news Jack Humphreys has signed with the CTC. Humphreys is the biggest name fighter to sign for the CTC since "The Great Canandian Exodus" before CTC had even run a show. This information has been confirmed by CTC owner, and CEO Mark "CageRage" Addison, himself a former fighter on the Canadian Regional circuit. "We are proud to have been able to draw in a fighter of Jack Humphrey's calibre, and are looking forward to having him competing in our cage as soon as possible. He will surely be part of the Welterweight Championship Tournament in Season 2. He may fight at Sunday Night Fights 6 in June if he recovers from his last fight in time."

Humphreys has a professional record of 25-11, and is a former GAMMA title challenger, losing a Unanimous Decision to Julio Regueiro at GAMMA 14. He is a wrestler, with an major talent for beating up opponents in the clinch.

Known as much for his trash talking, and controversial run-ins with many of GAMMA's top fighters, and brass, the CTC may have a headache on their hands, as well as an accomplished fighter.

Humphreys was recently cut from GAMMA's roster after years with the promotion after he lost a Unanimous Decision to Nathan Chambers in the Co-Main Event of GAMMA 50.

CTC announced some other signings as well, looking to strengthen a weak Super Heavyweight division. Signing Joe Snettisham, who is coming off a first round submission loss to Cory Frain at GAMMA 50. As well as signing Abe Locke, and Marty Sinnar out of ALPHA-1's Super Heavyweight stable. They also continued their depleting of WEFF's roster with the signings of Womens Bantamweight fighters Hester Maclean, and Rose Nessa.

Probably Curtis Blaydes.

Yeah, I think I got yours and mattu's dynasties mixed up when I guessed JDS.

March 7, 2020

At least Ngannou gave a good accounting of himself. Who's next for Cormier? Dos Santos? Terblanche may have upset Benevidez, but I don't see him beating DJ. Good to see Maia going strong at the end, but might have been better for the division overall if Burns had won. Be interesting to see if Maia can go out on a win, any idea who he might face in his retirement fight?

March 7, 2020

Good to see DJ back. Think he probably wins. I think Cormier will likely win the fight with his wrestling, but if Ngannou can get in a punch or two, you never know. Keep up the good work, and I'll be watching.

March 6, 2020

Expected the quick finish in the Jones/Anderson bout. Was really hoping Rozensteuik would pull it out though, too bad.

I'll take Ataev as well.

She lost to Kochiyo Chikamatsu in the Quarter-Finals of the Womens Flyweight Championship Tournament by first round submission. Chisaki Gojo is a Judoka, who isn't much of a threat with standing and striking, but if she gets her opponent to the ground can work a potent submission game.

PRELIMINARY CARD

Bantamweight Bout: Nadir Mendes Ferreira (5-1) vs. Kameo Oya (3-0)

Nadir Mendes Ferreira is at his best when he can stand and strike, blitzing opponents with high volume striking to keep them off balance and under pressure. Kameo Oya combines a strong wrestling background, with dangerously powerful striking. His hyper-aggressive approach to fighting could make him one of the top Bantamweights on the planet one day.

Heavyweight Bout: Aljur Piras (3-0) vs. Ted Grace (1-0)

Aljur Piras is a Muay Thai striker, who loves to stand and bang. He has the strength and cardio to outpower and outlast anyone. Ted Grace comes from a wrestling background. He is a ground and pound specialist, that you definately do not want to have him on top of you.
