URCC IV CEBU "Proving Grounds"

 

On June 20, 2009, Visayan fight fans will once again be treated to full on MMA action at the Colt 45 – URCC 2009 to be held at the Cebu International Convention Center. Headlining the fight card will be URCC fighter Andrew Benibe versus Cebu’s import Sabah Fadai. Benibe is coming out of a recent victory at the Rogue Magazine Black Tie Brawl last year while Sabah Fadai will be having his debut inside the URCC ring. Fadai is a Muay Thai instructor and Brazilian Jiu-Jistu practitioner under the Gracie Barra Philippines. Fadai has recently won a gold medal in his weight division and in the white belt open weight division at the 2008 Philippine International BJJ Open. This fight is expected to be a momentous fight at the Colt 45-URCC Cebu 2009.

 

Am rooting for Andrew to win in the main event I've been friends with the guy since my days training at Maics but not only does Sabah have mad standup skills he has the ground skills to boot also. His two bouts with Francis Uy of Alliance Fight Club during last December's Philippine International BJJ and No Gi Grappling Open.It's gonna ge a good one.

 

On the Vera-Hamill Fight. I think Brandon has the KO Power to dispose of Hamill. He just has to remain on his feet. :thumbsupsmiley:

Sabah yung tumalo kay Predator nung December? mukha ngang maganda striking nya chief, tapos good ground skills din matangkad pa siya

 

yep Brandon has the KO power, he just needs to sprawl well the takedown attempts and if in case he gets taken down he should scramble to get on top or get up

Yup the Iranian guy. I wonder who won though I have no word yet. Will post the results once I have em. I'll be rolling with Norman Go and the rest of Gracie Barra Cebu next month when I'm in that part of the country. Hopefully I'll get a chance to roll with Sabah. Great fights yesterday during the Ultimate Finale. The Guida / Sanchez fight was an instant classic.

Just finished watching TUF 9 finale and all i can say is HARDCORE!!!!!

 

The bout between sanchez and guida was fantastic. Both guys came out swinging at the beginning of the first round, although guida had no chance standing up with sanchez. I believe sanchez connected about 4-5 clean uppercuts before guida was able to take him to the ground. Guida has an iron chin after recovering from a nice head kick that sent him to the canvass on the latter part of round 1. Even on his back diego controlled the fight, he was able to dictate the pace and connect with those massive elbows. Not to mention the kimura attempts from the guard on rounds 2 and 3.

 

Another fight that i liked was with joe "daddy" stevenson and nate diaz. Excellent octagon control by stevenson, i've never seen such beautiful matt control in a long time. The two warriors were doing submission left and right in the entire match. I liked the first guillotine attempt by diaz, it was really tight, but stevenson was able to utilize his strength and power his way out of it. This has got to be the best joe stevenson i've seen in the octagon.

 

Sana lahat ng PPV event ng UFC ganito ka exciting. Ang ganda ng match making nila sa event na to.

 

Cant wait for UFC 100..........LET'S GET IT ON!!!!!

Panalo daw si Sabah Fadai over Andrew Benibe. Unanimous Decision. Awesome striking on display daw. flying knees, spinning heel kicks ginawa daw punching bag si Andrew. Panalo din daw si Mark Ediva kaso nagrereklamo yung nakalaban niya parang nilagyan daw ng pampadulas ang katawan niya.

 

Similar to that so-called allegation BJ Penn's camp had regarding GSP after they fought.

hey guys for the lack of focus on my part on what to do today... I got to the ufc website and checked it out... What I notice...The LW division has 51 fighers, while thw WW 38, MW 41, LH 36, HW 24 fighters respectively...Should the UFC come up with a new division? I think they should come Up with Ultralightweight division for the small LW like tyson griffin. Id say 135 or 145 for the Ultralightweight while 155 for the lightweight.

bantamweight at 145??

 

I think that's what the WEC is for..

 

or maybe a superheavyweight for guys 250 and up
