THE WEIGH-INS 8/29/08
It was an interesting night at the weigh-ins as fighters were sizing up their opponents. Zach Davis was feeling confident and Franscios Ambang is promising to get his fight over in the second round.
FRANSCOIS AMBANG VS. WHITNEY WADDELL
ZACH DAVIS VS. JOHN OPFAR
Anthony Morrison came in at the proper weight of 144lbs while his opponent, Jay Palmer, was late due to travel arrangements. This should be an interesting fight as Jay is a veteran of the sport and fought his last fight at 170lbs.
ANTHONY MORRISON VS. JAY PALMER (LATE TO WEIGH-INS)
Levon Maynards opponent, John Doyle, was having trouble making weight as he was 4 pounds over at the time of the weigh-in. After an hour of time John was able to make the weight of 171lbs, but again should be an interesting match up as John is a veteran of Elite XC and fought previously at 205lbs.
LEVON MAYNARD VS. JOHN DOYLE
The main event looks like it will be a explosive as Dwayne Shelton and his opponent, Sedico Honorio, both made weight and seemed eager to get it on. Neither fighter seemed to show a lack of confidence when facing each other at the face off… stay tuned!
MAIN EVENT: DWAYNE SHELTON VS. SEDICO HONORIO
Man thats a good looking crew right there, question is whose getting fight of the night. I know everyone’s been been training hard, we bout to put on a show! Hope to see some serious fan support, Richmonds always been good to me.
Now I just gotta pick out an entrance song, im thinking “you sexy thing” by hot chocolate. Not sure if that will strike fear in the heart of my opponent though
LOL@Zach! IF you really enter to that music you MUST tell me, that would be SO funny
I heard the Levon was fighting and announced it in my video weekly blog…dont worry the rest of you…I’ll cover you in next weeks blog

4 wins if you please 😛
THis is one hell of a fight card. I wish I was there. This will be my first time hearing how Antmo does. I know you guys will kick some ass. And Zach, I would come down to Hurt by Johnny Cash. That’s some Cerebral Shit right there.
I love that song(theres a good mma highlight with that as the background), Ill probably choose whatever will get the crowd going. Harley Davidson crowd I think so maybe some ZZ top will do the trick.
I thought you told me your entrance song was “Do you really want to hurt me?” by Culture Club
Harley crowd would be George Thorogood or Crazy Train by Black Sabbath
Good luck boys! Kick some ass and i will be looking for results.

As far as entrance songs go, I always thought it would be sweet to see a fighter come down to “You’re the Best Around”. You know, the montage song from The Karate Kid. or “Fight to Survive” from Bloodsport. Of course, it would be interesting to watch two toddlers fight over a Lincoln Log, as long as one of those songs was playing.
Look at Zach’s goofy picture lol. If you havent heard already everyone won their matches! Man, I had a blast!
Rob, funny you should say that “Your the best around” is one of our amateur MMA guys entrance songs. His name is Jack Greene and he has a huge local following… when that song come on the crowd goes nuts!
What? all four won their Matches???
I’ve read your bulletin LeVon but I was waiting for everyone elses news before I do my Blog 😛 hahahaha Can I just say I Called this last week and said that I wanted 4 wins!
