Нешвілл, Штат Теннесі. (Серпня 14, 2018) – Georgia middleweight Doug “Yamato” Usher і Yoislandy “Куба” Izquierdo were knockout-winners this past Saturday night in the “Road to M-1: США” main event and co-feature, відповідно, at Global Mall in Nashville, Теннессі.
“Road to M-1: США” was presented by M-1 Global USA and Angel Fight Promotions and aired live on worldwide pay per view.
“Лють,” a hybrid ring/cage, made its American debut in Music City.
“What a great first event for M-1 Global USA,” M-1 Global USA CEO Mike Merriman сказав. “There were so many obstacles to overcome and lessons to be learned, but the show still went well. The fighters worked hard and the staff worked diligently. I couldn’t have asked for more. We are working on our next show and some possible partnerships that should make a lot of fans smile.”
Usher (10-3-0) overcame a relatively slow opening round to knockout his late replacement opponent, Девід “Redneck” Mundell (9-4-0), with a powerful right-left combination for his sixth consecutive victory, which snapped Mundell’s three-fight win streak.
Izquierdo (12-4-0), fighting out of Charlotte (Північна Кароліна) by way of Cuba, took care of business early, нокаутувавши Damond Pickney (15-11-0), of Hot Springs, Арканзас, less than a minute into the opening round by way of a vicious head-kick.
Virginia bantamweight Tony Gravely (14-5-0) ruined the courageous comeback of previously undefeated Brazilian fighter Bruno Ferreira (8-1-0), who was making a comeback after successfully battling cancer the past three years. Gravely’s aggressive ground-and-pound attack resulted in a quick first-round technical knockout win.
Georgia flyweight Cee Jay “The Autobot” Hamilton (13-6-0) and California heavyweight Cody “The Moose” Goodale won three-round decisions, відповідно, against Puerto Rican Abdiel “Кошмар” Velazquez (8-6-0) і Nkemdirim “Kim” Oti (2-4-0)
Kentucky welterweight Брендон “Джаггернаут” Дзвоник (9-7-0) registered a first-round, ground-and-pound TKO win over Jacob “Tick-Tock” McClintock (9-3-0), of Arizona, while Chicago welterweight P.J. Cajigas used the same method to defeat previously unbeaten Tennessean James Conway (3-1-0) у другому раунді.
За попередніми карти, Chicago bantamweight Кріс “The Jungle” Джонсон (5-8-0) нокаутував Jerrod “The Hillbilly Hammer” Дженнінгс (2-2-0) в першому турі. Kentucky lightweight Kegan Agnew (1-0-0) made an impressive pro debut, locking in a rear naked choke to submit hometown favorite Dwayne Herrelle (0-2-0) в першому раунді.
