Uriah Hall Wins the Title

As a follow up to Friday's article, Sensei Uriah Hall knocked out James "B-52" Smith, Friday Night at Combat at the Capitale to win the WKA East Coast Muay Thai Championship Belt.
Hall dominated the fight using his full arsenal of weapons, starting the fight connecting on a Superman punch, followed that up knocking down Smith with a left leg round kick that landed squarely across the jaw of Smith and finishing off the first round Knockout with a barrage of powerful right hands that sent Smith barreling through the ropes.
Congrats to Sensei Hall, TSMMA and specifically the Cedarhurst School where he is the Head Instructor.

Uriah Hall goes for Muay Thai Title

The People's Champ would like to wish his MMA instructor, Sensei Uriah Hall, good luck tonight in his Pro Muay Thai Regional Championship at The Combat at The Capitale.
Sensei Hall is currently undefeated as a Professional Fighter (10-0). He is the #1 ranked Light Heavy Weight in the WCL, a Professional Kickboxing league run by Chuck Norris (I know, Chuck Norris doesn't really run.....The world orbits around him...). His opponent tonight is the current US Kickboxing Champion James "B-52" Smith. Hall defeated Smith in their last fight after avenging his only loss to date EVER in the ring, a decision he lost to Smith in his first Amatuer fight.

Bring the belt back home! OSU SENSEI!


Here's one of Sensei Hall's Fights. Enjoy.

Fedor- Unstoppable Once Again

For the first 2 plus minutes of the fight, former UFC Heavyweight Champion, Andre Arlovski was having his way with Fedor Emelianenko, the man considered to be the best fighter in the world. Arlovski is a great striker and his game plan coming in was to out strike the former PRIDE Champion. Arlovski would want no part in any type of ground war with Fedor and even went to the extent of hiring famed boxing trainer, Freddie Roach to improve on those skills. He wanted to stay away from the clinch and any type of take down Fedor would attempt. For 2 plus minutes, he succeeded, hitting Fedor with a variety of leg kicks and a few straight right and left punches. and then he felt the power of Fedor, The strongest and most feared puncher in all MMA.
He backed up Fedor with a nice push front kick (a slight variation from the classic front kick in traditional karate) and then attempted a flying knee kick. Unfortunately for Arlovski, the next thing he saw was the referee asking for a doctor as Fedor timed a vicious right hand that caught Arlovski flat across the jaw while in midair, turned him parallel to the ground, his head hitting the canvas first and the lights were out. Just like that, a fight Arlovski was winning ended in dramatic fashion as he felt the amazing power of Fedor with a classic highlight reel knockout punch.
In his last two fights, in a total of just under 4 minutes he has knocked out two former UFC Champions. He has a record of 32-1 and even his one lost should have been ruled a no contest rather than a defeat. He has beaten everyone that has come his way. I was one of his doubters early on, but there's not much left to doubt. He will probably fight Josh Barnett next, a good heavyweight but not someone that will have much of a shot against Fedor. The only 2 fighters out there that could Fedor a fight are signed to UFC and that makes a fight with either Frank Mir or Brock Lesnar unlikely. Dana White, UFC Boss has publicly questioned Fedor's dominance but the questions now have been answered as he easily disposed of two of White's former Champions (Arlovski and Tim Sylvia). Although it's wishful thinking, it would be great to see Fedor somehow fight the winner of the Mir-Lesnar bout that will decide once and for all the best Heavyweight fighter in the world. Right now, it's hard to argue with Fedor.
