納什維爾, 田納西州. (八月 14, 2018) – Georgia middleweight Doug “Yamato” Usher 和 Yoislandy “古巴” Izquierdo were knockout-winners this past Saturday night in the “Road to M-1: 美國” main event and co-feature, 分別, at Global Mall in Nashville, 田納西.
“Road to M-1: 美國” was presented by M-1 Global USA and Angel Fight Promotions and aired live on worldwide pay per view.
“風靡一時,” 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 說. “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, 大衛· “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 (NC) by way of Cuba, took care of business early, 淘汰 Damond Pickney (15-11-0), of Hot Springs, 阿肯色州, 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, 分別, against Puerto Rican Abdiel “夢魘” Velazquez (8-6-0) 和 Nkemdirim “Kim” Oti (2-4-0)
Kentucky welterweight 布蘭登 “The Juggernaut” Bell (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) 在第二輪.
對初步卡, Chicago bantamweight 克里斯 “The Jungle” 約翰遜 (5-8-0) 淘汰 Jerrod “The Hillbilly Hammer” 詹寧斯 (2-2-0) 在第一輪. 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) 在首輪.
