Sergei Kharitonov is undefeated in the CTC cage, scoring a first round TKO victory over Tim Sylvia in the quarter-finals of the Heavyweight Championship Tournament, but bowing out of the tournament to spend time with family and friends, thus missing his second career bout against Josh Barnett which would have been the semi-final match-up. When he returned, he knocked out Andrei Arlovski in the second round! In the first fight between the two, in Strikeforce, Barnett submitted Kharitonov in the first round!

CO-MAIN EVENT

Heavyweight: Lavar Johnson (18-8, 1-1 CTC) vs. Andrei Arlovski (18-12, 1 NC, 1-2 CTC)

Lavar Johnson had an great start to his CTC career, taking home Fight, and Knockout of the Night honours in a back and forth battle with James Thompson, that ended with Johnson scoring a one punch knockout 30 seconds into the fourth round, however, Johnson followed up that performance by being submitted in the first round by Josh Barnett in his last fight! Andrei Arlovski started off his CTC run well, scoring a first round TKO over Bobby Lashley in the Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Finals, before a second round knock out by Chris Tuchscherer saw Arlovski out of the tournament in the Semi-Finals, he was then knocked out in the second round by Sergei Kharitonov!

Heavyweight: Finals of an 8-Man Tournament In The Heavyweight Division: Winner Earns A Spot In The Season 3 Heavyweight Tournament

Quarter-Final Match-Ups

Heavyweight Quarter-Final: Christian Morecraft (7-4, 0-1 CTC) vs. Mark Ellis (2-2, 1-1 CTC)

Christian Morecraft didn't get off to the start he wanted in his CTC career, getting off almost no offense in his debut, and being TKOed late in the first round by Carter Williams! Mark Ellis also had a bad start, as he was TKOed by Hong Man Choi in the first round in his debut, but he bounced back, scoring a first round TKO victory over Ryan Fortin in his second bout!

Heavyweight Quarter-Final: Tyler East (12-4, 1-1 CTC) vs. Smealinho Rama (5-1, 0-1 CTC)

Tyler East hopes to take his first step toward avenging his performance in the Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Finals, where he was submitted in the first round by Rolles Gracie, he did bounce back, taking a Split Decision victory over Chris Birchler! Smealinho Rama took down Gabriel Salinas-Jones in his debut, but was caught in a guillotine, and forced to tap just over three minutes into the fight!

Heavyweight Quarter-Final: Levan Razmadze (6-1, 1-1 CTC) vs. Chris Birchler (1-1, 0-1 CTC)

Chris Birchler had a back and forth bout with Tyler East in his CTC debut, but dropped the Split Decision to East!

Heavyweight Quarter-Final: Brandon Sayles (3-1, 1-0 CTC) vs. Lonnie Race (MMA Debut)

Brandon Sayles debut was definately a boring one, as he dominated Ryan Fortin in the clinch, with neither fighter getting off much offense, but Sayles dominant control got him the Unanimous Decision victory! Lonnie Race is a highly-ranked Muay Thai fighter, while he's not much with his fists, his kicks are deadly, and his work from the Muay Thai clinch is devastating, couple that with good takedown, and submission defense, and a decent chin, and he should be very tough to finish!

Heavyweight: Cole Konrad (11-1, 2-1 CTC) vs. Aleksander Emelianenko (17-5, 0-1 CTC)

Cole Konrad controlled Guram Gugenishvili for all of their fight, taking the Unanimous Decision in the Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals, then submitted Levan Razmadze in the first round in the Semi-Finals, before a hard fought bout with Philip De Fries ended with Konrad being submitted in the fifth round, and De Fries becoming CTC Heavyweight Champion! A great competitor, Aleksander Emelianenko didn't get out to the start he would have wanted, as he was TKOed in the second round by Levan Razmadze in the Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals!

Heavyweight: Bobby Lashley (7-4, 0-2 CTC) vs. Tim Sylvia (29-8, 1 NC, 0-1 CTC)

Bobby Lashley has struggled to say the least since signing with the CTC, suffering a TKO loss at the hands of Andrei Arlovski in the Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Finals, and then dropping a Unanimous Decision to Jared Rosholt in his last fight! Tim Sylvia didn't get off to the start he wanted either, as he was TKOed in the first round by Sergei Kharitonov in the Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals!

Heavyweight: Mike Russow (15-4, 1 NC, 0-1 CTC) vs. Ruslan Magomedov (9-2, 2-1 CTC)

Mike Russow was overmatched in his CTC debut, getting off little offense, and being dominated on the ground, as he was submitted late in the first round by Josh Barnett in the Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals! Ruslan Magomedov started out well, scoring a first round knockout over Konstantin Gluhov, and a second round knock out over Rolles Gracie, before running up against Chris Tuchscherer in the Heavyweight Tournament Final, and losing by TKO in the first round!

Heavyweight: Sean McCorkle (17-5, 1-0 CTC) vs. Hong Man Choi (3-3, 1-0 CTC)

Sean McCorkle looked good in his CTC debut, though he was taken down, and took a few shots from Cody East, McCorkle was dangerous off his back, and submitted East with a Triangle midway through the first round! It didn't take too long for Hong Man Choi to dispose of Mark Ellis in his first CTC bout, taking a TKO victory over Ellis just four minutes into their fight!

Light Heavyweight: Ovince St. Preux (13-6, 0-1 CTC) vs. Hans Stringer (19-6-2, 0-1 CTC)

Ovince St. Preux fought hard in his CTC debut, fighting off several submission attempts from Trevor Prangley, but in the end, Prangley was the more dangerous of the two, convincing two of the judges to award him the Split Decision victory in the Light Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals! Hans Stringer came into the Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament with high hopes, but those were quickly dashed when he got in no offense, and was TKOed by Gilbert Yvel just over two minutes into their fight!

Heavyweight: Jared Rosholt (5-0, 1-0 CTC) vs. Cody East (3-2, 0-1 CTC)

Jared Rosholt looked pretty good in his CTC debut, taking Bobby Lashley down a few times, and landing some vicious ground and pound, enough to convince the judges to award him a Unanimous Decision victory! Cody East managed a takedown, and landed some ground and pound, but was caught in a triangle, and submitted in the first round by Sean McCorkle!

Heavyweight: Carter Williams (5-4, 1-0 CTC) vs. Tim Hague (12-6, 0-1 CTC)

Carter Williams vicious Muay Thai striking was too much for Christian Morecraft, and he took the TKO victory late in the first round! Tim Hague got in no offense at all, and was dominated by Philip De Fries, before being submitted late in the first round in the Heavyweight Tournaments Alternate Bout!

Heavyweight: Gabriel Salinas-Jones (6-1-1, 1-0 CTC) vs. Konstantin Gluhov (21-7, 0-1 CTC)

Gabriel Salinas-Jones showed dominant ground game in his CTC debut, submitting Smealinho Rama in just over three minutes! Konstantin Gluhov didn't look good at all in what basically amounted to a kickboxing match, landing only two punches as he was dominated by Ruslan Magomedov, before being knocked out late in the first round in the Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Finals!

Heavyweight: Ryan Fortin (6-6, 0-2 CTC) vs. Rolles Gracie (8-2, 1-1 CTC)

Ryan Fortin has struggled to say the least in his CTC fights, being dominated in the clinch in losing a Unanimous Decision to Brandon Sayles, and then being TKOed in the first round by Mark Ellis in his last fight!

Lightweight: Kurt Kinser (5-0) vs. Ryan Machan (13-7)

A solid collegiate wrestler at the University of Indiana, Kinser has excellent takedowns, and takedown defense, and likes to work from on top! He has virtually no striking game! He has not fought since September 2010, when he took a first round TKO victory over Shamar Bailey! Ryan Machan is a submission wrestler, who has some creative striking, and good takedowns, to set up his dangerous submission game! He broke a two fight winning streak when he submitted David Hulett in the first round!

Womens Middleweight: Vanessa Porto (17-5) vs. Suzie Montero (1-0)

Vanessa Porto had a pretty good back half of 2013, coming into the CTC riding a two fight win streak, taking a unanimous decision over Angela Samaro, and submitting Mayumi Aoki in the first round to win the Invicta Bantamweight Title, she vacated the title to join CTC's Womens Middleweight Division! A former pro kickboxer, Suzie Montero is a striking coach with American Top Team! She won in her MMA debut, taking a unanimous decision victory over Kim Couture!

UNDERCARD

Cruiserweight Championship Quarter-Final: Cheick Kongo (18-9-2, 0-1 CTC) vs. David Oliva (7-1, 1-0 CTC)

Cheick Kongo was competitive in his main event fight with Steve Bosse, landing some solid strikes, and scoring a takedown, and landing some ground and pound, but was eventually submitted with an Ankle Lock in the second round!

Cruiserweight Championship Quarter-Final: Devin Cole (21-9-1, 1-0 CTC) vs. Jeff Monson (46-13, 1-0 CTC)

Jeff Monson looked like an absolute monster in his CTC debut, taking Pedro Rizzo down immediately, and submitting him with an arm triangle only 1:34 into their fight!

PRELIMINARY CARD

Cruiserweight Championship Quarter-Final: Jair Goncalves (10-4, 1-0 CTC) vs. Karol Bedorf (10-2, 1-0 CTC)

Jair Goncalves had a come from behind victory in his CTC debut, as Ben Gallant landed all the offense, and showed excellent takedown defense, stopping Goncalves first four takedown attempts, however, early in the second round Goncalves finally managed to take Gallant down, and slapped on a kimura for the submission victory! Karol Bedorf was taken down early by Justin McCully in his CTC debut, and pounded on, but he was able to slap a guillotine on McCully to take the submission victory!

Cruiserweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Dawid Baziak (10-3, 2-1 CTC) vs. Daniel Puder (9-0, 1-0 CTC)

Dawid Baziak was a beast in the early rounds of the Sunday Night Fights 3 Cruiserweight Tournament, scoring a first round TKO over Shamil Abdurahimov in the Quarter-Finals, and a first round knock out of Satoshi Ishii in the Semi-Finals, before succumbing to a first round TKO at the hands of Magomed Malikov in the Tournament Final! However, he was allowed entry into the tournament based on the merits of his first two victories! Daniel Puder had a much less flashy CTC debut, as he grappled with Yusuke Kawaguchi, managing to convince two judges that he had done more than Kawaguchi, and taking home a Split Decision victory!

Cruiserweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Guram Gugenishvili (11-2, 0-1 CTC) vs. Demico Rogers (2-0, 1-0 CTC)

Guram Gugenishvili got into a wrestling match with Cole Conrad in the Heavyweight Championship Quarter-Finals, and ended up dropping a Unanimous Decision to Konrad. He makes the move down to Cruiserweight rather than waiting till Season 3, and hoping to get another shot in a much more stacked Heavyweight Division! Demico Rogers was getting outstruck by Martin Desilets in his CTC debut, when he finally got Desilets down, and submitted him with an armbar late in the first round!

Cruiserweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Magomed Malikov (9-1, 3-0 CTC) vs. Shamil Abdurahimov (12-2, 0-1 CTC)

Shamil Abdurahimov bowed out in the opening round of the Sunday Night Fights 3 Cruiserweight Tournament, falling by first round TKO to Dawid Baziak, but makes it into the tournament based on his past record, and relative lack of depth in the division!

Cruiserweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Ben Gallant (2-2, 0-1 CTC) vs. Ibragim Magomedov (23-7-1, 1-0 CTC)

Canadian Tournament Combat 20

Friday, Week 1, February 2014 in Quebec, Canada

MAIN EVENT

CTC Flyweight Title: Darrell Montague (13-2, 3-0 CTC) vs. Abel Cullum (21-6, 3-0 CTC)

After a hard fought Unanimous Decision victory over Yuki Shojo in the Flyweight Championship Quarter-Finals, Darrell Montague dominated the competition, scoring first round knock out victories over Yasuhiro Urushitani in the Semi-Finals, and Pat Runez in the Final, where Montague became the first ever CTC Flyweight Champion! Abel Cullum was if anything even more dominant in his victories, scoring first round finishes in all three of his Tournament bouts, by TKO over Kiyotaka Shimizu in the Quarter-Finals, by knock out over Rafael de Freitas in the Semi-Finals, and by rear naked choke submission over Allamurad Karayev in the Finals!

CO-MAIN EVENT

Womens Heavyweight Title Quarter-Final: Elena Reid (5-1, 1-0 CTC) vs. Cristiane Justino (11-1, 1 NC, 1-0 CTC)

Elena Reid outstruck Elaina Maxwell in her CTC debut, but switched tacks midway through the third round, taking Maxwell down, and submitting her with an Americana! Cristiane Justino was actually in trouble a couple times during her main event fight at Sunday Night Fights 4 with Gina Carano, but took home both Fight and Knock Out of the Night honours, when she knocked Carano out with a punch on the counter with only seconds left on the clock in the first round!

UNDERCARD

Womens Heavyweight Title Quarter-Final: Randi Miller (2-0, 1-0 CTC) vs. Julia Budd (5-2, 1-0 CTC)

Randi Miller didn't have a lot of trouble with Christina Riddering in her CTC debut, taking her down, taking some time to pass to mount, and locking in an Americana to pick up the submission victory! Julia Budd was actually being slightly outstruck by Shana Olsen in her CTC debut, when she knocked Olsen down with a punch, and pounded her out for the TKO victory midway through the second round!

Womens Heavyweight Title Quarter-Final: Cindy Dandois (6-1, 1-0 CTC) vs. Gina Carano (7-2, 0-1 CTC)

Cindy Dandois was a participant in one of the worst fights in CTC history in her CTC debut, when her and Erin Toughill wrestled about for twenty minutes, with neither landing any real offense, Dandois was awarded the decision, but everyone watching was just glad it was over! Gina Carano had some limited success against Cris Cyborg in her CTC debut, knocking her down once, and getting in some ground and pound, but Cyborg got back to her feet, and knocked Carano out with a punch late in the first round!

PRELIMINARY CARD

Womens Heavyweight Title Quarter-Final: Ediene Gomes (11-2, 1-0 CTC) vs. Rin Nakai (11-0-1, 1-0 CTC)

Ediene Gomes dominated her opponent, Yana Kunitskaya in her CTC debut, taking her down with ease, passing, and pounding her out with strikes for the TKO victory! Rin Nakai showed excellent takedown defense, and scored a couple takedowns herself, eventually earning an early second round guillotine submission victory over Amanada Lucas in her CTC debut!

Womens Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Yana Kunitskaya (4-2, 0-1 CTC) vs. Lalani Malley-Mancao (2-1, 2-1 CTC)

Yana Kunitskaya got off no offense whatsoever in her CTC debut, as she was dominated by Ediene Gomes en route to a first round TKO loss! Lalani Malley-Mancao was a finalist in the Sunday Night Fights 4 Womens Heavyweight Tournament, earning a first round submission victory over Chantalle Castellanos, and a Unanimous Decision victory over Lauren Taylor, before taking a third round submission loss to Revelina Berto in the Final!

Womens Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Erin Toughill (10-4-1, 0-1 CTC) vs. Lauren Taylor (4-1, 1-1 CTC)

Erin Toughill was the other half of the equation in one of the most boring fights in CTC history, while she got off a couple strikes, it was Cindy Dandois aggression that would win the day, as she handed Toughill a Unanimous Decision loss! Lauren Taylor had a strong showing at the Sunday Night Fights 4 Womens Heavyweight Tournament, earning a dominant Unanimous Decision victory over Jan Finney, before having a back and forth battle with Lalani Malley-Mancao, that ended with Mancao being awarded the Unanimous Decision to advance to the Final!

Womens Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Revelina Berto (6-0, 3-0 CTC) vs. Charmaine Tweet (2-3, 1-0 CTC)

Revelina Berto fought her way into the tournament by winning the Sunday Night Fights 4 Womens Heavyweight Tournament, taking dominating first round TKO victories over Valentina Shevchenko, and Christina Domke en route to the final, where she went to war with Lalani Malley-Mancao, eventually submitting Mancao with a guillotine in the third round! Charmaine Tweet engaged in a stand up war in her CTC debut, that eventually ended with Tweet winning the Unanimous Decision!

Womens Heavyweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Amanda Lucas (3-2, 0-1 CTC) vs. Valentina Shevchenko (1-2, 0-1 CTC)

Amanda Lucas was unable to take down Rin Nakai, and eventually got taken down herself, and submitted with a guillotine in the second round! Valentina Shevchenko was Revelina Berto's first victim en route to the tournament, as she was TKOed in the first round!

Womens Heavyweight Alternate: Maria Hougaard Nielsen (3-5, 0-1 CTC) vs. Sarah Schneider (6-6, 0-1 CTC)

Maria Hougaard Nielsen had her CTC debut, against debuting jiu jitsu phenom Hannette Staack, who showed none of her jiu jitsu, while handing Nielsen a TKO loss in just 22 seconds! Sarah Schneider was taken down early, and suffered a TKO defeat at the hands of Lina Eklund in her CTC debut!
