Chelsea Heights Pub 8pm start doors open 6.30pm. Apparently there's 4 mma fights, a few muay thai and about 8 kickboxing bouts too. I can't find a link but i got in contact with the guy promoting it through a post on the australasian forum at mma.tv tickets are $40 general admission i'm going with a couple of mates, should be good.

If any of you guys are going let us know we should catch up for a brew.

Date?

Fight Card?

Edit: I think if it's this week end a guy from our club might be fighting in the Kick boxing. Though not very sure where he is fighting and there are heaps of events for KB.

Ok i found a link, try http://www.fightforce.net/ and scroll down the page a bit to see the poster.

It's this saturday night 12th May, don't know any of the fighters but there's (i think) 13 bouts so should be a good night. We live around the southern'ish suburbs so we getting the girls to drop us off and from there it's fights & beers and anyone's guess afterwards.:)

Is Neil Swailes confirmed on that card? If so, nice.

Good fighter to watch. Great fighter to watch. Saw his fights with Noke and Burhman...what great fights! He is much better than his record suggests.

so how was the show?

I read Swailes got the win, which was a good win for him.

Lombard and Lima won in Qld, Pang got a draw and Sidic got beat.

Swalies won by armbar, but he fought last so i can't be sure of fight details given how pissed drunk i was by that stage of the night. We all had a fantastic night though, the fights were furious especially the girls drawn title fight i really enjoyed that one. Place was packed to the rafters but not uncomfortably jammed in, if you know what i mean. I liked the 2min rounds as it made for some slugfest fighting, not many dull moments at all. That's about all i can write about the night though to be honest, me and the boys got so excited to be out together we just got completely smashed drunk and whilst i remember we had a great night the details are very very hazy.:)

haha sounds like one of those nights.

Yep, I reckon shorter rounds are the go.

XFC in QLD had MMA with 3 minute rounds - IMO what everyone should be doing! Much better for the fans, and Im surprised more organisations havnt trialled shorter rounds.
