SHEBOYGAN SHOWDOWN II COMBAT CHAMPIONSHIP

HFS GOES UNDEFEATED!

Saturday, July 31st 2010

Main event:

Fresh off his dominating decision win over Jake ‘the bad’ Omen, Jimmy Zidek went immediately back to training in preparation for his upcoming bout with exciting striker Jason Gignac. Unfortunately Gignac broke his hand and was forced to pull out of the fight. so a replacement was found in the form of unpredictable ACS striker Ty Knuckles. Ty knuckles is coming out of a bout with Brian Learn which was ruled as a no-contest.
 
When asked what he thought about the bout ACS head coach Nick Aguillar said “this should be an exciting fight. We’ve got two standup fighters trying to prove themselves, and that they are both better than they look on paper. Jimmy is really experienced and Ty is a tough dude- I mean he’s been fighting since before he knew what he was doing.” he laughs. “someone’s definitely going to sleep, should be fun to watch.”
 
Promoter Jason mills had a few choice words to say about the new matchup. “ people like to see exciting stand up wars, and that’s what jimmy has been known to put on.” “ getting ty as a replacement is awesome, ty is unpredictable and capable of putting on a great show -which is what people are paying to see.”
“also Ty is taking the fight on relatively short notice which just shows the class and professionalism which ACS is known for.”
