New Champions...


That's right, a couple new champions were "belted" December 9th at XFS 55 as Nate Decker defeated Josh McBride for the vacant welter-weight belt, and Lonny Burton captured the bantam weight belt from Aric Iverson. Congratulations to both these guys for their dedication and hard-fought wins!

The rest of the fights proved to be entertaining as well. A couple solid knockouts certainly kept things interesting, as well as one fighter who, upset his fight was stopped, decided he might like to lose again, only to the ref Chuck G! I'm sure he wasn't thinking clearly as he'd just taken a "whoopin" from Gunner Weir... fortunate for him, he was stopped before getting to Chuck.

And, let's not forget the music for the evening. The band Workin' on Fire performed, and I thought did a great job. For three high school guys, they have played as much as anyone around, and this may have been their toughest crowd yet. I have worked with them in the past and they are always professional, as well as very talented.

All-in-all, a great night again at Qwest Arena in Boise, courtesy of Knockout Promotions! Now, on to the pics... click over to "Gallery" at the left of this page, and enjoy!
