Just want to say I'm really enjoying this still. My one gripe, albeit small is the fact that every sentence ends in an exclimation point. Though it doesn't bother me that much, I find myself reading every sentence with a sense of excitment. Even if it's just something like, "He showed no offense in his last fight!" or "He suffered a loss in his last match!"

Don't change on my acocount if it's how your prefer too write, I just wanted to leave you some feedback! And again, great great diary that I love to check up on. Keep up the fantastic work(exclamation point) <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Canadian Tournament Combat 21

Friday, Week 2, February 2014 in British Columbia, Canada

MAIN EVENT

Lightweight Championship Quarter-Final: Tyson Griffin (16-6, 1-0 CTC) vs. Gesias Cavalcante (17-5-1, 2 NC, 1-0 CTC)

The main event of a stacked card, where some of the preliminary fights could be main events, this promises to be a war between two skilled grapplers, who also have decent striking skills! Tyson Griffin uses a wrestling base to get his opponent to the mat, then hit brutal ground and pound. He is coming off a Unanimous Decision victory over Carlo Prater. Gesias Cavalcante is a crafty veteran of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu game, with excellent submissions. He didn't get off much offense in his fight with Roger Huerta, but locked on a guillotine midway through the second round to take the submission victory.

CO-MAIN EVENT

Lightweight Championship Quarter-Final: Marcus Davis (21-9, 1 NC, 1-0 CTC) vs. Eddie Alvarez (24-4, 0-1 CTC)

A battle between two lethal strikers, who also have decent ground games at their disposal! Marcus Davis was defending takedowns all fight long, and outstruck J.J. Ambrose to earn a Unanimous Decision victory in his CTC debut. Eddie Alvarez didn't look as good, landing a takedown early on Dustin Hazelett, only to fall victim to Hazelett's excellent submission game, and get submitted with a guillotine only two minutes into the fight.

UNDERCARD

Lightweight Championship Quarter-Final: Curtis DeMarce (12-9, 1-0 CTC) vs. John Alessio (34-16, 1-0 CTC)

Two Canadian fighters enter the CTC cage, both are well rounded fighters, Curtis DeMarce relies on technical striking, and a decent guard game, while John Alessio is a slick grappler, with some good technical boxing! Curtis DeMarce landed a takedown early in his CTC debut, and submitted Chad Freeman with a guillotine in just over two minutes. John Alessio meanwhile took just over five minutes to get Myles Merola to the canvas, and submit him with an armbar.

Lightweight Championship Quarter-Final: Paul Sass (15-2, 2-0 CTC) vs. Dustin Hazelett (13-7, 1-0 CTC)

A battle between two highly skilled Jiu Jitsu players, with very dangerous submission games! Paul Sass debuted in the CTC by scoring a submission victory via Rear Naked Choke over Alex Ricci, and then managed to both outstrike, and out grapple Andre Winner en route to a 6 round Unanimous Decision victory over Winner in the main event of Sunday Night Fights 5. Dustin Hazelett showed his very dangerous submission game in his CTC debut, taken down by Eddie Alvarez early, he used his excellent guard game to submit Alvarez with a guillotine just two minutes into the fight!

PRELIMINARY CARD

Lightweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Carlo Prater (30-13-1, 0-1 CTC) vs. Mark Holst (13-3, 3-0 CTC)

A match-up between a seasoned grappler, and a good technical striker! Carlo Prater is known for his submissions, but couldn't get them off in his CTC debut, being both outstruck and outgrappled by Tyson Griffin en route to a Unanimous Decision loss. While Mark Holst has some decent scrambles, and good takedown defense, his main stock in trade is good technical striking skills, that he used to win the Sunday Night Fights 5 Lightweight Tournament, scoring a first round TKO over Mike Sledzion in the Quarter-Finals, a second round TKO over Chris Horodecki in the Semi-Finals, and a sixth round TKO over Jesse Ronson in the Tournament Final!

Lightweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Christian Uflacker (6-0, 1-0 CTC) vs. J.J. Ambrose (20-5, 1 NC, 0-1 CTC)

Christian Uflacker is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Carlos Gracie, and multiple time Brazilian National Champion, and he didn't have much trouble in his CTC debut, while getting Dakota Cochrane to the ground, and pounding him out for the TKO victory late in the first round! A strong wrestler, with an excellent top game, Ambrose couldn't manage to take Marcus Davis down in his CTC debut, and was outstruck en route to Davis earning a Unanaimous Decision victory!

Lightweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Joseph Duffy (10-2-1, CTC Debut) vs. Efrain Escudero (19-5, 1-0 CTC)

A well rounded fighter, Joseph Duffy is trained in both Taekwondo, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He had two fights for UCMMA in the latter half of 2013, battling Wesley Johnson to a Split Draw, and taking a Unanimous Decision over Mark Glover, and makes his CTC debut tonight! The winner of the Ultimate Fighter Season 8 Lightweight Bracket, Efrain Escudero waged a war with Curt Warburton in his CTC debut, coming away with the Unanaimous Decision victory!

Lightweight Tournament Quarter-Final: Jesse Ronson (10-3, 2-1 CTC) vs. Samuel Guillet (10-6, 1-0 CTC)

Jesse Ronson is a former world champion kickboxer, who has developed a decent defensive ground game, with a dangerous guard that he showed off to good effect in the Sunday Night Fights 5 Lightweight Tournament, taking victories by Triangle Choke over Kurt Southern in the Quarter-Finals, and Graham Spencer in the Semi-Finals, and many believed that Ronson was winning the fight on the judges cards, when he was TKOed by Mark Holst midway through the sixth round of the Tournament Final, for which he and Holst took home the Fight of the Night bonus! Samuel Guillet is a good wrestler, but has few attacking options once he gets in the clinch, or on the ground other than smothering control, which he used to take a Unanimous Decision victory over Rory McDonnel at Sunday Night Fights 5!

Lightweight Alternate: Andre Winner (14-8-1, 0-1 CTC) vs. Curt Warburton (12-4, 0-1 CTC)

A fight between two British fighters, who would probably be in the tournament if not for high profile losses at Sunday Night Fights 5! Andre Winner is primarily a striker, and managed to land some strikes in his main event fight at Sunday Night Fights 5, though Paul Sass landed more strikes, and out fought winner on the ground, en route to handing Winner a Unanimous Decision loss! Curt Warburton is a strong wrestler, with an evolving striking game, but he was behind in all areas of the fight, as he lost a Unanimous Decision to Efrain Escudero!

Lightweight: Joe Ellenberger (14-1, CTC Debut) vs. Blake Fredrickson (16-4-1, 1-0 CTC)

Joe Ellenberger is a bright prospect in the Lightweight Division, making his CTC debut, he's a strong wrestler, who likes to work from up top, and is developing some power to his punches. He had two fights with M-1 Global in the latter half of 2013, taking a Unanimous Decision from Beau Baker, and winning by first round TKO over Antun Racic! Blake Fredrickson is also a wrestler, who used his top game to eventually work an armbar submission of Martin Grandmont midway through the first round of his CTC debut!

Fallout

- Gesias Cavalcante suffered an elbow injury in his victory over Tyson Griffin, and will miss a couple of months. He will be unable to compete in the semi-finals of the Lightweight Championship Tournament, and will be replaced by Alternate Curt Warburton, who will face John Alessio in the Semi-Finals!

- Tyson Griffin suffered a groin injury in his loss to Gesias Cavalcante and could miss up to six months!

- CTC President Mauro Ranallo was on hand to announce a new wrinkle to the company's tournament sports format, announcing that starting in the Summer time between seasons, there will be the addition of smaller four man tournaments in addition to the showcase 8 man tournaments held in each weight class each year. "In our current format, champions would only be given a challenger once a year, in order to keep our champions busy and fighting, rather than having them engage in meaningless non-title contests, the obvious answer is to line up more challengers."

Predictions

Cyclops 50% (5 of 10) (Season Total: 45% (36 of 80))

mmaaddict 50% (5 of 10) (Season Total: 52% (47 of 90))

Jingo 40% (4 of 10) (Season Total: 49% (44 of 90))

wekka 40% (4 of 10) (Season Total: 62% (31 of 50))

Cyclops has won todays predictions, he won on the second tie-breaker, as both he and mmaaddict picked the main event wrong, but Cyclops picked the other 3 main card fights correctly, and mmaaddict only picked two main card fights correctly.
