XFS 59: Deathwish was a Success!

Well, after a much anticipated return, XFS 59 "Deathwish" was a resounding success! With 8 fights, 4 titles on the line, it was a night full of surprises and great fights. I am happy to have again been cageside to capture all the action!

While there were a few last minute changes to the card, the matchups were solid, and the action in most of the fights was non-stop! There were many familiar fighters and teams, yet a couple new faces as well. All in all, a great showing once again for local MMA.

No knockouts tonight, although there were a few close calls, with all competitors bringing it and leaving it all in the cage. Great job to the fighters, the teams and the promoters. Another excellent event!
